I had my RNY on 5\16.  I started at 346 day of surgery.  This morning I weighed myself. 246. I have lost 100 lbs in 89 days.  Astounding.  I am so amazed, and still feeling well.  My surgeon said I am one of the quickest he has ever had. I think I need to eat more.  lol. I just figured I would share.  I am quite excited about this.

That's an incredible run.  You started after me yet blew right past me.  You must be getting comments on a daily basis. You have a specific goal yet?  You might be one of those 140 pound guys before we know it...

So that was you moving on down the road too fast to identify! If you don't slow down, at this rate, you'll be in double digits by Thanksgiving and probably need a child's car seat by Christmas! Heck of a job.

It's amazing isn't it.  I'm almost 4 months out and have lost about  75 lbs. since surgery. (104 lbs. since the first of the year). Enjoy and congrats. DD

Thanks everybody.  Actually my doc thought I would be around 220, but now he thinks more like 210 or so.  Its kinda odd to be sure  Once I get down to like 230 or so, I am going to start to (try to) up my protein and start lifting again.  I lost a ton of my muscle up top.  I am also starting to see a difference too.  Very freaky, but cool.

Hey Drew, congrats on the loss.  Does your surgeon do comprehensive blood work each appointment?  Two things that really helped me at 3 months for energy was an iron supplement and getting b12 shots once a month or more frequently.  For the iron, bariatric advantage has a good one.  Hope this helps.... Congrats, that's 100lbs you will never see again.

Drew, Fantastic!  You've done an awesome job.  You'll be at the goal in no time.  I lost my weight fast, but not as fast as you.  Keep up the good work. Floyd
