Im so blessed

Hi all. I had my surgery on Nov 25 (almost exactly 7 months ago) and have lost 92 pounds. Even if I never lose another pound I will be more content and happy to live life as a normal size person. I started at 262 being my highest and am now at 170. my butt now hurts if I sit too long. This is a new discovery to me. I wear a size 12 and some 10's. I hope to lose another 25 pounds but even if I dont I am happy with my weight loss. My bmi is 28. Hope every one else is as happy with their wl as I am. I am also in the process of adoption of my step son whom I have raised since he was three (he is now almost 6) Im so excited about this. It should be final sometime this summer. Court proceedings seem to be so slllooooowwwwwwwwww. Hope everyone else is feeling as blessed as I am right now. Jennifer

I had my surgery 11/04 and have lost 71lbs. I started at 280 at the highest and now am 209. I'm happy but...I which I could get under the 200 and my goal is 151 (from the surgeon) the last 2 months I've only lost 5-6 lbs. I'm a little discouraged!!! I hope it picks up again soon. Somtimes I think its stopped. I'm trying to up the protein, water and exercise I'm just not loosing like others, I'm happy with the loss, just thought it would be more by now!!!

Hi Jennifer I also feel blessed. I had my surgery november 26th and have also lost 92 pounds. I am wearing a size 8 and still cannot belive how great I feel. My bmi is 25 and I hope to lose another twenty pounds just so if I gain a little back, it won't be too bad. I hear that our weight may go up and down 10 pounds because of water weight and such after we reach our goal. Congratulations and good luck with your adoption. ((((HUGS)))) Dawn
