9 pounds away from onederland



Recommended Posts

Haven't been under 200 pounds in over a decade and even then I was 190 pounds. Lapband got 40 pounds off and now post op 10days sleeve I got another 14 pounds off.

I am 9 pounds away from being under 200 pounds! My birthday is july 31st so its my goal to reach under 200 pounds by then. I am so excited!

those 14 lbs are only the first of many many more lbs to come off :)

being so early PO - its quite possible you will lose those 9 lbs as a b'day present :)

playing devils advocate - if it takes an additional week or so to attain your goal....... :angry:

whats a couple of weeks in a lifetime ;)

good luck

happy early b'day :)

you will continue to look better and better year after year :)

enjoying your healthier, happier, longer life :)

Yes it does because I have gone through so much with the lapband and to have two procedures at one time was tough. I'm hoping the sleeve will carry me the rest of the way.

Wow! Congrats...onederland seems a long way away for me. I was almost there a couple of years ago but couldn't seem to get below 215.

Good luck to you! You'll be there in no time.

      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.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
