Final 221.6 1.6 from goal but I consider it a success. I am 32 pounds from goal weight and feeling great! Looking forward to next challenge! My thoughts are if I reach every goal I am not setting them high enough!

225 going nowhere fast LOL

Thanks! Dr John Touliatos is my surgeon. How are you both doing with your sleeve? Any tips you have for me would be greatly welcomed! @@Hunter Small world! I love living in the shoals area!

early on just be sure to get your liquids in walk all you can stand. Follow your Dr diet they are all very similar! Don't flip out at stalls (that is one I have not mastered) lol. I have no issues with food now but early I had to be really careful what I ate, some things made me sick and those are different for each of us. Relax and enjoy it is a heck of a ride! Start saving for new cloths now!

My stats are Highest weight 344, day of surgery 332, 3 months 275, 6 months 232, today 223.2

My BMI was so high 49 that the first 100 came off quickly. I use my fitness pal and track everything! Try new healthy foods my tastes have changed.

Hey everyone!! I'm from the Shoals area. I'm having my surgery done in Birmingham, May 20th and could not be more excited about it! I hope everyone is doing well.

congrats and welcome!

Hi there! Which doctor in Bham? I had my surgery on 3/5 and Dr. Miles is my surgeon. Love him! Loving my sleeve!!!

Dr Miles did mine on 8/20/13 love it and him! I am from the shoals also!

Yep what she said.

SW 344 5 10= BMI of 49.4

CW 227.4 BMI of 32.6

I just came out of a 3 week stall that almost caused a nervous break down. Seriously I lost it. I was sure I was done losing. I was heart broken! In the last few days I have dropped 3 pounds so I feel a little better. My goal is 190 which is still overweight according to the BMI chart. My surgery was on August 20. I think I might have just been really lucky the first 7 months the rest might be slow going! And not all men skin tightens my man boobs are now where my belly button should be and my belly button is almost to my......... Well uh....... Sorry ladies it is low lets just put it that way!!!!!!

Sheesh, why is it always men that have it so easy.... <awaits the nuclear fallout>

Lol now are we that bad???? Love this thread going to figure stats be back in a minute

There are a lot of Benifits and I love being able to see it! Buuuut this just jumping to attention at odd times during the day can be embarrassing but hell I take it!

CW 230 goal 219

I'm running a bit behind, it seems, but finally have the introduction to the Easter Challenge posted (http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/301321-easter-challenge/). Weigh-ins will be on SUNDAYs for this one, or whatever day of the week works best for you, individually (smile). Yes...we're flexible. :-)

Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!!!!!!

I am in maybe this stall will break!

232 what!!!!!! Not only did I not make goal but I gained! Well back to the grind and congratulations to the ones who made goal!

230.4 which is a little disappointing. I knew at some point my pace would slow but I was hoping I would get closer to onderland before it did! Lol on August 6 when I started my presurgery diet if you had told me I would be at 230 by March with 114 pounds lost I would have called you crazy. What a amazing journey. Now to keep trudging along! My long term goal is 190 by August.

232.4 closing in on goal thanks Bea
