Yeah' date=' I'm 4 kilo's off double digits. The last time I was double digit's was at the police academy as a recruit![/quote']

That's fantastic. I'm 6 kg. off being normal, BMI wise. I'm hoping I may become normal in other ways too, but not too normal, that would be boring.

That's great. You must be really pleased.

When I get down to 99 (in 4 kilos) that will put me in the 'overweight' BMI range.

After that I'm not sure what my goal will be. 82kgs is the top of my healthy BMI range. I don't know if I want to get down to that or even if my body would be happy there. So I'm just going to play it by ear.

I was 87kgs in my early 30's and was fit, strong and healthy. Maybe that might be the number.

It's a good problem to have! B)

It's a great problem to have. Not having anything to wear because everything is too BIG is also kind of a nice feeling.

I tried on clothes out of my wardrobe the other day and am having that problem. When I started exercising I went and bought singlets and rights from big W and just live in them now so it's funny to put something on you haven't worn for three months or more now. And I've only lost about 15kg since op, my body has totally changed and I like it!

Love it.

I had some smaller sizes that I had grown out of put away and was meaning to get them out. I pulled them out last week and they were too big. Straight to the charity bin!

I have 15kg to go to get to double digits :) Still a ways off...but it's nice knowing that I'll get there! Got a new app tonight - it's to get you from the couch to 5km run in 10 weeks. The app is free and called C25K. It seems to start you off with 30 mins where you jog for 60 seconds and walk for 90 seconds. Apparently I'll be running 5km in 40 minutes in just 8 weeks. Well, we will see how that goes lol :) Got to get new joggers first - my old one's (which are only about 8 months old) are too big lol. who knew I also carried weight in my feet hahahahaha

Maybe when we achieve this we could all meet and have our own little 5k fun run. Then we could share a bottle of wine and celebrate!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...
