Almost Out Of The 300's

It's only been 17dys since my surgery and I'm so in love with my sleeve already!

I started at 346lbs and for the pre-op diet I got down to 330lbs exactly. And today I weight 310.6lbs!

11 more pounds to go and I'll be out of the 300's for good! I'm just so happy I want to scream from the roof tops!

Now I know I have a long ways to go until my goal (160lbs), but I'm so happy to get out the 300's. Hopefully I'll meet this goal by the end of the month and then I'll begin to tackle the 200's.

I just started walking a mile a day so that should help as well.

Guys this is so exciting to lose weight. My skin is better.. I sleep better.. even wake up before the alarm goes off.. and that's only with a 36lb weight loss.. I can't imagine what losing 150lbs will feel like... because this right here is fantastic!!!

We have similar stats. I was 348 the day of surgery. When I had my lapband I was about 385, but got down to about 215, then back up from there. ;) First week sleeve post-op I was down about 45 lbs IIRC, but also extremely dehydrated. Probably 18 - 20 of that was fat. I've been stalled for the last 3.5 weeks (at least)... but that happens with me.

You're going to feel amazing. I remember fondly (sigh) how I felt when I was down enough that the 100s were not just an impossible goal.

WOOHOO!!! What an awesome feeling! Congrats on 36 lbs down and more importantly, feeling great :).

Christina Rose it is an awesome feeling and I want more of it!

Congrats on your 43lb lost as well....

Nikki and Wheetsin, congratulations to you both!!!! It keeps getting better and better. Don't stress about the stalls! They do happen BUT you will kick butt and get through them! I am a relatively "slow loser" and have stalled throughout, especially in the begining. Often as long as 4 weeks. ( Just recenty another 4 weeks stalled and then two pounds loss.) But overall I have lost 92 pounds in 11 months - 103 since my highest!!!! I look and feel great!!! and the stalls have somehow vanished from my memory LOL. I just kept doing what I was suppose to do and felt confident in that. Congrats again to you both and keep up the good work! I look forward to reading about your progress!!!!

Congrats on the weight loss, Nikki!! You're doing great and you'll see Twoterville in no time!! That's time for a happy dance, for sure!!! :) I was 352, now at 257 and holding, waiting on my Century Club at 252, then it's coasting into Onderland for me!! :) I'm 8.5 months out and I've stalled a couple of times, but just ignore the stalls, keep working that sleeve and, before you know it, you'll be at goal!! :)

Congrats Nikki82 & Wheetsin!!! Can't wait till I'm toot-toot my horn into Twotersville, too!

Thank you! Wow..This post seems so long ago. It's great to reflect on. I can say that I am currently almost out of the 200's. I'm 209.2 this morning so 10.2 lbs more and I will be out of the 2's :)

It's been a great ride!
