Just curious to see how long it took some of you light-weighters to meet goal? I have lost 58.4 pounds in about 4-1/2 months, and have about 40 pounds to lose to be at goal.

My stats are in my signature - if you include pre-op, it took me 10 months to get from 219 to 125 (4 months pre-op - 36% of weight; 6 months post-op for the remaining 64%).

I hope you haven't started Maintenance yet.  You need to let your body go as low as it wants to because bounce back is real!

Thanks Roz - I'm still keeping low in calories (Tracking etc.). I'm currently 1.75 pounds under goal.

Welcome to our LW Board!!!  It took me 9 months to get to my personal goal of 125.  I was happy there so I increased my Protein drinks hoping not to gain any back.  I continued losing for another 6 months dropping down to 108.  My family kept telling me I was way to thin and I got scared.  Against all of the advice I got from our "oldies" not to start maintenance early I didn't listen.  Bounce Back is for real!!!!!  The scales started moving in the wrong direction as soon as I added some calories in.  I creeped up to the 118-120 range where I have settled for the last 6 years.

About 9 months to goal and 12 months to lowest weight. Bounce back started around 18 to 20 months.

I think about 10-11 months.  Surgery weight of 220, low 111.  Settled around 125, now 135.  Would love to be back to 125.  Bounce back is very real.
