Sunday Weekly Weigh in.....

Been a few weeks since I posted on the weekly weigh in, but here I am again.  I've averaged 3 lbs per week for the past 3 weeks.  I'm expecting the loss to slow down sometime soon, but it hasn't happened yet! Highest weight: 350+ 3 Weeks ago: 248 Today:  239 Still re-considering my goal weight of 205, as I'm very satisfied with where I am at.  That said, I've decided to do nothing different to slow down my loss ofr now. Great to see how well everyone's doing! --Dave

Surgery 10/23//06     439 Today                           280 My loss has slowed a little, but I still feel like a have a long way to go.  Life is a hell of a lot different at this weight though.  A lot better.  Keep up the good work guys. 

After being zeroed out on the scale last week, I lost 8.4 pounds this week, my best week ever other than the one right after surgery.  Also had my best week yet on exercise (probably no coincidence). Lifted weights three times, played racquetball for over four hours total, and even biked a bit. I feel great. Here are my stats 16 weeks post-op: Highest Weight 375+ Pre-Surgery Weight 350 Last Week 282.0 This Week 273.6 Week Loss 8.4 Total loss so far 101 Loss since surgery 76

Congrats to all! Highest                - 363 Date of Surgery    - 346  (5/21/07) Last week            - 287.5 Today                  - 284   Loss for week      - 3.5 lbs down  Total loss from DOS -  62.0

Continuing the walking and made it to the gym 3 times this week.

Sorry for the late post boys. Tuesday was one year since I went on a "diet".  Today I am at my goal weight!!!!! I am officially less than half my original weight. Here it is:  Start           7/10/06  - 455 Surgery      1/04/07  - 365 Last week  7/08/07 - 229 Today          7/15/07 - 225

Congrats on getting to your goal Tom.  140 pounds in 6 months, after losing 90 presurgery in six months, that's an impressive run. So where to from here?  You're still capable of losing 4 pounds, apparently.  Do you start adding the calories, let things go for now and see where they end up, or pick a new goal?

Definitely gonna ride it out a little more, just don't tell my family...or co workers....or friends. They think I am small enough. I hope to just stay the same eating wise, and hopefully turn the flabbiness into muscle and be about this weight but solid, for once in my life.

Starting weight ---- 346 Last weeks weight --- 183 Todays weight --- 185 Total this week ---  +2 lbs Total loss of ---- 161  lbs in 55 weeks

Pretty solid week with a loss of 3 lbs. I'm glad that I seem to be losing a bit more steadily now with less "drop and stop"...I made it below my hlgh school graduation weight this week! Lowest I have been in 11 years!
