I had my surgery last October and it was my goal to lose all my weight within 1 year (still a goal but still not sure I will make it). I started at 319lbs and I'm at 254lbs as of this morning! 65lbs down and 46 to go! OK I'm done ranting, thank you and good day....

Great job!

That is awesome!!!

Yay!!! Good job!

Oh! Positive rants are great LOL

Thank you all! A lot tougher than I thought it would be but then again not too hard when you do the right things. Got to have a plan, like everything in life.

Great Job!!

Keep your head in the game you can do it!!!

good job!

Way to go!!!!!! Keep your eye on the prize. Goals are good to have to keep us motivated. Sometimes we need to change our modify our goals and sometimes its good to also make smaller goals.

....and this is why we fail. I'm not saying a person can't lose all the weight within a year but it should not be about how long it takes. None of us got to be fat overnight, and we're not going to lose it overnight either. Good for you hondoford that you modified your goals and did not go into 'failure' mode. You will reach your goal.

i think you are doing great!!!! i had my surgery oct5,and around christmastime,i saw a cousin that i have not seen since the summer before,by then i had lost about 45 lbs(thats including the liquid diet pre surgery)....and i was telling him how im losing but its sooo slow...he looked at me and said "are you crazy? who loses 45 lbs in 2 months without excercising?? all the fat people in the world would kill for that!!"....And those words put everything into prespective for me.

Wow I would say that too; I'm in the gym 4 times a week, 2 hours each time and its still hard! You are doing awesome!

The best tip I've received and has worked well for me is: Don't eat after 6:30PM....anything! Water and that's it after 6:30PM. That in combo with the gym is where I've seen the biggest changes.

yea i gotta start working out,then i think i'll see a big change...i was doing zumba for a few weeks and was doing very well,then i stopped for 2 days and well,we all know how that goes! lol
