Congrats on your loss.  I can't wait to be there with ya in the 130-140's.  You must be really ecstatic to be so close to goal at your 6 months mark.  Anywho, good luck and continued success.
 

My goal 135; current 132;  pre-op highest 285; I have lost more than I weigh...  I my RNY!

Topic: Surgeon wants me to slow it down!
 I'm 10 pounds from my goal (130) and went for my 6 month appointment today. The doc was almost shocked by how fast my weight has come off.  He told me to add more calories and now try to find that balance for maintenance. His goal for me is 130. I would really like to be 125, but now at 140 pounds, he wants me to slow it down! Kind of disappointed that he acted so surprised and wants me to up my calories NOW (before I'm even to my goal weight).

The good news? I'm in a size 4!! Whoo hoo!!! From a tight 22 to a size 4 - I have no complaints.

Surgeon said I can start shopping for plastic surgeons now so once I'm a year out I can schedule proceedure! (having tummy tuck and boob job - it's a must-do for me, I just can't live without that "icing on my cake")

Best to all of you on your 6 month appointments!!

Topic: RE: 6 months yesterday - 120 pounds down!!
Thanks everyone for your encouraging words.  I read a story on our company's internal website about a lady losing 100 lbs in 7 months simply by joining weigh****chers and exercising 3 hours per day.  Other employees can "react" to the news stories and there were over 120 reactions and 1 said "Glad you did it without surgical intervention" and that was enough to make me not comment at all.  There are still people that think this is the easy way out..All the surgery did was force me to make better decisions.  I know that this way is just as hard as her way....so I'm fine with that.
