I Finally Hit The Two's! 51 Pounds In 7 Weeks

I am so overjoyed to see 299 on the scale this morning! This might sound funny, but it finally seems real! 51 pounds is alot of weight but when you're 350 pounds and every time you step on the scale you're still in the 300's, it just seems like it's going to take forever! I'm so excited to see the scale starting with a 2!!!!! SO EXCITED!

Thanks!!!

Congrats that's great. I was wondering do u exercise? I've lost 17 lbs in one week and nothing the next week is that normal? Sometime I feel like its not gonna work for me. I feel hungry or its an upset stomach once in a awhile I eat about 2 oz puree for breakfast lunch and dinner. Is that to much? How did your first 7 weeks go like?

Your doing terrific...and that is a big accomplishment. Your on your way now girl!

Congrats! I totally understand your excitement, I started put at 354 and now 8 weeks later I am stuck at 302! I can't wait to be out of the 3's forever! Again, congrats on your exciting milestone and keep up the great work!

Thanks everybody! I saw someone ask if I'm exercising and I'm not on a regular basis but I REALLY NEED TO! I still struggle with energy level and when I pushed myself a few weeks ago I felt so bad for a couple days I'm gun-shy :(. But I see that I really need to work out and work on toning....I notice the soft skin! Plus I want to make sure that I'm building muscle and not losing it. Also, a little more detail....I started at my highest 350, pre-op I lost 17, surgery day 333. Today is exactly 7 weeks (lost 2 more pounds) and I'm 297. So 36lbs or an average of about 5lbs per week....I'm very happy with that pace and hope I can keep it up! :). Good luck to everyone and thanks for the support!!!

Congratulations! I know exactly how your feeling! Your doing it!!!!! Keep on truckin' !

Cantwait, Your starting weight and stats are very similar to mine! Congrats on reaching Twoterville!! :)

Congratulations!
