Right, she said she could do it IF she starved herself to death, so she thinks stretching it out to 6 months would be healthier.

That is exactly what I meant, I think some people read it wrong. I am saying if personally "I starved myself to death" then it could be done but that is why I said it is better to stretch it out and have a goal. Like my first goal is that I would like to be at 300 pounds at my 6 month mark. It doesn't mean it will or will not happen. It is just I want to do it in a healthy way :)

Since my max is 233.5 losing 100 lbs would make me 133.5. My goal is 155lbs. I'm currently 187.5lbs. So, I'm out of the challenge.

I lost 16lbs 1 week post surgery but that was due to poor caloric intake, and it was much too fast.

I'm on a place about 2kgs per month or around 5lbs +/- .. that's about the quickest I want to lose.<br><br>Going 25lbs per month would be very quick weight loss pace, but that's relative. If you're 400lb or 300lbs, then it might be a sustainable pace without running into starvation issue, muscle loss, and renal problems.<br>

Good for you girl! I am glad to see a woman loosing at a rapid rate, a lot of females really think of this as a "men only" thing, glad to see you're loosing at a rapid rate too.

Thanks :)

I don't really have an eating plan. I just eat whatever really. Some days are better than others.

And, for exercise I make sure I get in at least 10,000 steps a day (however, I don't always reach that!)

Plus the gym 3-4 times a week.

I have 15 more pounds to go!

I have been slacking with the gym this week... I need to get back to it!

I am shooting for 100 pounds in a year! That would put me at goal but I am happy with my weight loss in 12 weeks. My doctor said I am "ahead of the curve" regarding weight loss. I know that people who weigh more can lose alot more weight in the beginning. Good Luck :rolleyes:

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
