Pre-op and Post-op: post your total weight loss so far here!

Starting weight was 302..... I am down a rack of baby back ribs and a new born calf.... LMAO!!!!! I now weigh 210 lbs.  I started as a 26/28 and now I wear a size 14.

Well, I guess I have lost a gold brick and a guinea pig!  Pre-op I lost 40 pounds and post-op 38 pounds for a grand total of 78 pounds! 
I've gone from a 24 pants and tight 3X top to a size 14 or 16 pants and a L or XL top- no more women's department for me!  Weird!  I automatically head for the women's sizes and then remember I don't need to head there anymore.  I haven't shopped in regular sizes since the late 1970's.

Was 260, lost 14.5 pre-op, 26.5 since for a total of 41lbs. Best news is I have lost 7 inches from my waist and rear. Was wearing a 22 now 16-18 depending on style. Waist is still way toooo big. Bust is shrinking and going south but who cares. Cindy

I have lost an Irish Setter and 5 guinea pigs!  Man, does that put it in perspective!

I lost 34 pre-op.

I have lost 41 post-op since 5/28/08.

Total lost:  75 pounds

I was wearing a size 26/28 everywhere but sometimes the tops were too tight.  Now I wear an 18/20 top - still my biggest problem area - and a 16 bottom.  I can sometimes wear an XL top, it depends on the brand and I have some 14 pants.  Go figure!  It's all just number anyway and *****ally cares?   The only number I care about is the number on the scales!

If you are on the fence, DO IT!!!  (If you are willing to give up carbs - the number one evil edible in the world, in my opinion!)

Ok..let's see...I lost 50 lbs pre-op and 90 post-op. Lost a total of 67.50 inches since March 2008.

I feel great, have basically gone down 10 sizes. My top gets smaller than my bottom faster. I can buy XL at Wal-Mart junior department!! What size I wear now depends on where I shop. I can fit into a L or XL in regular sizes mostly (not women sizes). Pants are 18 right now.....

This has been truly amazing....can't wait for the next 90 some lbs to go bye-bye!!!

I lost 43 pounds pre-op and I've lost 15 pounds post-op.  I LOVE it!!

I started out the weight of the average football lineman!
I now weigh the same as two bloodhounds!
My goal is to weight the same as a complete Oxford dictionary Set...or close to it.  I'm very realistic. 
I have lost a 2 month old baby horse!!
CRAZY!!!

In regular talk...start 300, lost 100, currently 200, want to weigh around 160 or 150 range.  I'm very muscular "farm stock" so I don't think I'll get below 150 unless I am ill!  lol

Well Lets see I started out weighing a much as a Welsh Pony and a 5-gal bottle of water combined.  I have lost a 2 month old horse and a small bale of hay.

What I am trying to say is I started out at 440 lbs I am now at 290 lbs so I have lost 150lbs and I am a week shy of 7 months. I love my RNY.

I have went from 5x-6x to mostly 2X and I actually have some 1X tops that fit it just depends on the brand.

This post is beginning to sound like DebC.'s back yard!!! It is amazing!! I am so encouraged by each of you!! You are all doing great! Thank you for posting for people like me!

Highest weight: 270
Lost 20lbs a year before looking into WLS. Gained 10 back.

Weight prior to recent hospital stay was 153, and after 4 days in hospital on IVs and liquids, gained to 10 lbs. (Of course it is fluid retention and I know it will go away in a few days time.

I am using 260 as my starting point on my ticker since that is the weight I was at Dr visit with diabetes specialist *****ferred me for WLS and Dr Gorospe.
