Goal: Have you reached it? Has it remained the same, or have you revised your goal?

 Yeah, I'm 5'10".

 Yeah I am 199lbs and I am a size 12, 5'6.  I've had a lot of PS from the first go around with WLS (RNY).  Size/weight etc is so relative.

i got to goal with the band.

the band decided it would rather be apart of other organs in my innerds.....

i decided that maintaining 100% EWL was the goal - mediocrity is not in my DNA.

You're a perfectionist RB. I'm more of a "oh this is easier" type, lol.

Nope not even close! But I did learn alot like that I'm content wherever I am weight wise, it's the docs that are all in a tizzy about it. Come on I weight 275 so that's 40 lbs less than I was and I'm good here. Sure I'd like to be the 135-140 I was in my twenties but it is what it is! I'm still an awesome person and I'm not gonna let other people tell me I have to be miserable because I'm over weight by their standards. Yes I'm still working at it but the band didn't help me I did it all the old fashioned way by starving and suffering from hunger all the time.

You're right. You are an awesome person! :-)

Cool I'm official!!!! You are pretty awesome yourself~

I'm not just awesome........I'm a rock star! ;-)



Well hey.....I at least got the *****in' part right, lmao.

 My goal is 175.  That was a weight I was in my 20's and know I look good at.  Currently I range from 197-205.  So not there yet.  I am 2 years out...OMG TODAY!  So still working towards it.  I know what I need to get there and hope to be there soon.  

Wow I can't believe I forgot my surgiversary.  LOL

And I love wearing regular sized clothing.  I am a 14/16 or sz L top. Make shopping MUCH more fun

ETA- my healthy BMI would be 155.  I don't know how that would look on me.  I like curves.  At 175 I'm a 10/12.  That works for me.

I'm with ya on the shopping. Last spring I was able to go shopping with my 21 Y/O daughter and shop in the same dept. for the first time EVER! :-)
