Hi I lost 120 in 6 months

Started my pre-op on March 1, 2015 (11 months ago). Lost 67 on preop diet. Had surgery Nov 24,2015. Have lost just about 90 pounds so far and am really hoping on my 1 year (starting this process) date that I will have lost 100 pounds. I will then be 2/3rd of the way through on my weight loss with only 50 pounds left. I think when doctors tell folks that they will only lose 60% of their excess weight that they are averaging in all those folks who don't follow the plan on what they should be doing. For those of us who do- I think getting to goal is SO achievable! Just look at all these wonderful folks on this site. That is why I log in a few time EVERY day. I don't want to forget that I need to keep on track and on this journey. Everyone encourages me-- from the veteran who is at goal and maintaining to the newbie who makes me remember why I decided to do this!
Good luck!

Have lost 119 pounds in 7 months with the sleeve. Hoping for goal weight before one year anniversary.

i'm 6 mo, 7 days post op. 171 lost this morning. 4 x a week aerobics(1 zumba), then i walk the track straightaways and jog(JOG!!!) the curves 1-1.5 miles. if it goes in my mouth, it is weighed/measured and tracked in a journal. training for a 5 K may 1 st! ME...IN...A...RACE!!!

I am getting close to the 100# lose mark. Only 5 more lbs. Surgery us 8/3/15. I lost 40 before on the 6 month insurance requirement. Loving how much better that I feel.

I'm 11 months (and three days) post op...
I'm down 217 pounds (98.5kg) and have been thereabouts for weeks...
Admittedly, I've not watched my intake and I've had MANY alcoholic beverages recently, so I'm certainly not complaining..
My aim is to hit 220lb (100kg) lost by my anniversary...
That'll leave me at around 70% to goal* of 320lb lost by Christmas this year...
*I don't actually have a number as a goal. I have a "feeling". The day I wake up and feel right is the day I'll reach my goal.

I lost about 120 in seven months. I don't exercise, but I do try to go out and do things that involve walking around (I justify hitting malls by calling it physical activity).

My weight loss started this past june, my surgery was this past september. So far i have lost 150lbs

Close to 6 months post op and down 95 lbs ????????????

I lost 145 so far and I'll be a year out in Feb. Got another 100 or so to go.

@@Margie122 I round up too! lol

I lost a total of 111, which was 3 pounds past the goal weight I hit at 18 months. I have maintained a loss of 106-108 pounds, depending upon the day- I go up and down the same two pounds.

I've lost 99 and I plan on getting to 130 lost!
Ok - oops really only 98.8 but I rounded up. It's pretty close to 100!

I LOVE reading all of this! I reached my 100 lb loss at about 7 months. I am down 115 total now at 9.5 months out. Good luck on your journey!

This is the thread to come back to on one of my tough days! You all are so inspiring.
I have lost 150 pounds (115 post op) and I'm 10 months from my sleeve surgery and I'm not stopping until goal.

I lost 41 pounds pre-op and another 95 in the last 10 months since surgery. I am working to lose another 30-40 pounds

I'm down 158lb in 10mo and still losing, but a lot slower which is fine by me. MY goal was to be in the 215-225 range. I'm 222 as of this morning.

I have lost exactly 100 pounds including my pre-op loss of 24 pounds. My starting weight was 260 and I now weigh 160 (5 pounds below goal). Took me exactly one year to reach my goal weight of 165 and I have fluctuated between 165 and 160 in the 5 months since then.

I will be one year out on Thurs, 1/28 and so far have lost 123lbs. I'm not trying to lose at this point, not counting calories or Protein, etc, just doing what I do every day. I haven't exercised at all this winter, but will start again once spring comes so expect to lose again at that time. It's possible!

I'm 6 mo out and am down 95 pounds. Hoping for another 20.

120 lbs down . If you put in the effort .... You will succeed. It is not a magic pill, but it is a great tool for life.

I have now lost 100 pounds since my first surgeon meeting. I didn't expect to lose this much. It has taken 19.5 months. The last 15 pounds took 6 months.
I now weigh 135 pounds and am holding steady here.
Obviously, I haven't been what the newbies think of as a fast loser. But it was absolutely fast enough for me. It doesn't matter one whit how fast you lose, but that you lose and regain control of your eating and your health.

I have lost 152 and March will be 1 year for me. I want about 18 more lbs!
