Nov Babes... what % of excess weight have you lost??

This is a fun thing to do. I came up with 78.5 % of excess weight lost. So I guess by their numbers I am a success already. I am hoping to lose another 34 pounds . KatherineL 305/281/187/150?

I have lsot almost 66% so far, wootwoot!! I plan on going another 50lbs though, I want 83% myself~~ To literally cut myself in half, /grins. Matthew

That's awesome Matthew.... congrats!!! B

Ok.. so I suck at math. I have no idea. My highest weight was 255, day of surgery it was 222, today it is 153. The planner thing says my ideal weight is 118. I have 35 more lbs to go to get to goal. I'm 5'0". If someone can figure this out.. thank you. I do know that as of today I am now considered "overweight" Yay for me. 29.9 BMI!! I'm very excited about that! ~Angel 222/153/120

By my calculations.... you have lost 102 lbs..... your excess weight was 137 lbs..... that makes you 74% of excess weight is gone!!!!!!! WOW! Congrats!!!! B

Wow.. That's great. Thank you so much. I had no idea it would be that much. 74%.. ~Angel 255/222/153/118

Well, I wanted to lose 100 lbs and I have lost 82 lbs so far so that puts me at 82%. God bless you and keep you, ~Andrea 223/141/123

I am at 48% also. -70# all together. I am really slowly losing. Oh well. I have decided only to weigh once a month. That helps a little. It was six months on 5-2-05. I have only lost 4# this past month. I guess I better figure on 5# a month so it will take 10 more months to reach my goal. Which is actually 16 months post op to goal and a full year to the century club. It seems so far off. One day at a time.

Hello. I had my appointment 2 weeks early b/c I was having my fistual relooked at and I wanted to make it one appointment. I was told by the PA that I had lost 68% of my excess weight, but my actual 6 month anniversary is on the 8th (Mother's Day) That makes me feel good b/c I had horrible news today. I went and had another swallow test done to check my fistula and I had a reaction to the barium drink and have been throwing up and having horrible diahhrea for the last 10 hours. My husband spoke to the PA to see if it was a normal reaction and I am waiting for confirmation from my surgeon, but my outlet is completely closed and food is leaving my pouch 100% through my fistula. I am devestated and don't know what the future holds, but am still happy to be down the weight I am. I will post when I know more about my fistula and how I am proceeded. We are all doing great! Roni 242/164/136 28lbs to goal!

I'm 73% of the way to my surgeon's goal and 66% of the way to mine. Six months today! Down 75 at my appt. It just doesn't seem like it's been that long. Way to go ladies! It sounds like everyone is doing great! Carey 243/168/130
