A nurse by profession and engaged but no kids. With my history of PCOS kids will come after I drop the weight. Starting weight: 280lbs Current Weight: 275 and losing everyday!!

Hi All!!

It's been a while since I've post on this thread, but I wanted to share my good news........I'm down 108 lbs!!!! My surgery was October 24th, I had faith that I would get to this point, but it all seems so surreal.... How are the rest of you doing?

Ok...so have been feeling "pretty good" about my weight lose but not really excited until I saw myself in a picture. Then I compared it to last year and damn I felt good. So far I have lost somewhere between 80 and 90 lbs (my scale bounces all over the place, so I just wait until I go to the drs and get an accurate weight). This is the best thing I have ever done!! I see all the pictures of everyone on this site and am so proud of all of us!!

90 pounds down! Martha's Vineyard last week

Done Did It!

Hi everyone..I'm doing pretty good. I've hit a stall, but I'm currently finishing up nursing school, so once that's done, I will concentrate on toning. Starting weight = 219 current weight = 145. I'm so happy about this fabulous gift, and new way of life! (Tried to upload pics, but system crashed...maybe another time)

My last nut appt is 9/6 also then all is sent to ins. I hope there is a quick turn around so I get a oct surgery date. I've got my fingers crossed for approval.

My surgery date was October 25, 2012 and my weight 316. As of today my weight is 221

Hi my surgery is scheduled for October 4 g-d willing. I am doing it after my holidays just easier to find a place for my 2.5 year old. I had the Lapband almost 6 years ago and lost weight but gained it back and can't seem to loose it. The dr feels I'm a great candidate to the revision and see hopefully no problem with it being the same day. Q to anyone who did it in nyu how much of the shakes am I supposed to drink for the liquid diet???

Start wt. 451 current wt. 245. Surgery date 10/10/13 I've went from 56 pants to a 38. Shirts I've went from 5-6 xl to 1-2x depending on ****.
