ROLL CALL ALL DECEMBERITES CHECK IN!
I am glad I came to this forum today, I was getting a bit depressed about my weight loss and how it's kinda been stalled the last few weeks, but after reading everyone's progress it seems most of us are in the 70 to 80 lbs lost range, with a few fast losers who are at 100, and some that are a bit slower, but I think we are all doing great. Reading everyone else's progress reassured me I am right on track!

71 lbs lost

Pre-op 24 - 2X (pushing 3x)
Current - 16 to 18 - XL (which are getting big)
As you can see my scale is retarted, I don't know how someone 250 lbs wears a size 16, even with my height and vanity sizing.
This is the worse month thus far. I am going bald. 2 months ago I thought I was losing my hair. Huh that was nothing. I am losing handfuls daily now. I don't even style my hair now due to fear of brushing and pulling on my hair.
I have only lost 6 pounds this month. My goal is by the 12 of every month to lose 10 pounds. I am only at 6. I keep gaining and losing the same 2 pounds.
On a better note I have recently received some very nice compliments.
Looking at the percentage of weight that I lost is a good feeling as well.
Although 125 by July 12 is looking pretty slim these days.
