1 year out almost hit goal
Almost 1 year out and Ive hit my goal of 150 lbs. Total loss 140 lbs. I went from size 24 to size 8. I am glad I had the VSG. But now I worry because I am still losing. I just want it to stop so I dont start looking sick. I posted new pics on my account. A lot of people say the new me looks like a totally different person.
I checked out your photos. What a difference. Can you believe it yourself???? I'm halfway to my goal right now and it's only been 3 months. I was a lightweight (ya right) tho. I'd like to hit 140, but people I talk to say that's too small. We'll see. When I got married I weighed 150 and wore a size 12. I wouldn't mind seeing that again too, or either.
You've done a fantastic job. I hope my RNY works as well for me as your VSG worked for you.
Congratulations.

Congratulations on hitting your goal! How exciting!
I believe our bodies know when to stop - especially if we are still eating properly. There also is the "bounce back" factor to consider. 5-10 lbs is a good cushion to plan for.
I too was going to be happy with 150 - but when I kept losing and got below that I was happy. Now I hang between 125-130, which works for me. Yes, I'd like to get to 120 to have a little more cushion, but my body has decided this is where it wants to be.
