I am down from 310 to 217 in just shy of 6 months. I am pleased with my weight loss so far

I was sleeved on January 23, 2013. starting weight 300lbs. this morning I weighed in at 206.4. I am so thrilled, I am more motivated than ever to continue moving forward on my journey and see what else I can do!

Congratulations everyone, your stories are very inspirational to me!

I was sleeved 1/23, started at 265 and as of today 179:) I am beyond thrilled!! I go tomorrow for my 6mo follow up and know it will be good!!

I was sleeved on January 29. I weighed 257lbs the day of my surgery. July 29 will make 6 months and today I weighed myself at 180lbs. 77lbs down! I feel awesome.

Love my sleeve!

Down 110.5 since jan1. Yay!!! Slower but still coming off.

I finally hit 100lbs down yesterday. Surgery jan 9, weight 268.6. Yesterday 168.6 exactly. My doc wants me to get to around 135 so another 34lbs to go. I took pre-surg pics but lost all the pics on my phone so I have no comparison shots to post

**wait that's not true. I was 268.6 at my highest lol. Lost 40 before surgery. Down a TOTAL of 100 lbs.

Congrats for great success!

Not bad for six months

Stef,

Great job!!! Congratulations! What a great feeling, I'm so happy for you!

And all if us actually! Go us!!

This surgery was certainly life changing for me. I own a clothing boutique...I liken myself to akid in a candy store.....except with diabetes ....I couldn't fit in many of the clothing items I sold....except now! Now it's like.." Oh! I will have that...and that...and that!!!!" Love it!
