I Had Vsg _____ Ago, And I've Lost _____ Lbs.

Please complete these statements:

I had VSG _____ (days, weeks, months, years ) ago, and I've lost _____ lbs.

When I started, my goal was to lose ______ lbs, and I am ____ tall.

I know a thread like this has been done in the past, but it's sort of buried these days. Plus, I'd rather see how far away you are from surgery (rather than knowing the date of your surgery), so I don't have to calculate the duration myself. :)

I'd also like you to complete the second portion, as I think that will help put it all into perspective.

I'm not comparing myself to you, I know, I know, but there's got to be an average or something out there, right?

I'll start:

I had VSG -7 days ago (March 27th) , and I've lost 2 lbs (on pre-op diet).

When I started, my goal was to lose 40 lbs, and I am 5'6" tall.

Thanks everyone!

When I started, my goal was to lose 190 lbs, and I am 6-0 tall.

Also, that 190 lbs was my own personal goal, (would have brought my weight to 170lbs) my doctors goal for me was to weigh 212 lbs, which i surpassed by 12 lbs. . now i am maintaining beautifully between 200 - 215lbs. . . very proud of myself

I had vsg 14 months ago, I have lost 83lb, my goal was to lose 81lb. I am 5'8, I was 235, I am now 152, I am happy here, but am considering attempting to get closer to 140 to give me a 'safety zone'.

I had VSG __11 months___ (days, weeks, months, years ) ago, and I've lost __90___ lbs.

I still feel like I can reach my goal just in due time. Currently I am about 6 weeks from my one year surgiversary and plan on reach 100lbs down. 1 year 100lbs I'm jumping for joy. All my stats are below as far as weight and goals.
