I am so thrilled that I've lost nearly half my excess weight at the 3-month mark. I had my surgery on 8/10/11 so I'll be celebrating my 3-month surgiversary in 2 days. I didn't have a required pre-op diet so all my loss has been post-op. I'm absolutely over the moon that I've hit this milestone at the 3-month mark . . . I know that the "honeymoon" period is likely nearly over so I'm being realistic and know that the next 50 will likely be a LOT harder . . . but I've worked so hard and am so happy that I've made it this far, that no matter how long the rest takes, I'm in it for the duration!!!! I started out at a 24 pants and a 3x shirt size . . . I'm comfy in a 1x shirt (probably could pull off a XL but am still trying to get comfortable in clothing that is more fitted) and the size 16 pants I bought are getting baggy.

WOOT!!

Congratulations you sound a lot like me but I am almost 4 months out and down 58 I am stuck in a stall and it sucks! But keep going will get there

Congratulations!!! That is awesome! Keep up the good work! You'll be there before you know it.

Congratulations!!! Keep up the good work.

Would you mind sharing what you do? What you eat, exercise etc. I'm 3 weeks post op. Lost 25 lbs in 2 weeks and this week lost NONE! I know it's still good but I want to follow in the steps of thos who lose good!

WHOO HOO! CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's awesome keep up the great work....

Thanks all!

Elixaveth, I've been tracking everything I eat and making sure I eat my Protein first before anything else. I have not found issues with carbs keeping me from losing quickly, so I do eat a few more carbs than some of the others on this board - but I'm trying to stick to good carbs rather than bad. I am eating a ton of boneless/skinless chicken breast, small salads, cheese, etc.

Up until the last 2 weeks I've been exercising 4-6 days per week - taking a strength class and doing cardio (jogging) on the treadmill. I've had some medical issues due to an ongoing condition I have so I've not worked out for a couple weeks but I'm hoping to be back at it soon!
