When did people start noticing your weight loss?



Recommended Posts

All I can say is I would rather have people say nothing than say

" Wow, you've lost a TON of weight, you used to be huge":omg:

I get that quite often, I'm not offended tho, shhheee I was huge, still am. I have been told several times that they did not recongnize me, that's good:heh: Maybe I can slip in and out of places without being noticed:heh: . At church I draw a crowd sometimes :biggrin1: I can't imagine what will happen at the end of the year when I reach a 200 lb lost.

;) Oh yeah, most people first noticed at a 50-65lb lost.

I've lost 33 lbs so far, and no one has said anything except my DH. I'm thinking another 20 lbs and I'll be below 200 and people will start to notice. I really don't care, because "I" notices the difference for sure!

Every one began to ask me Are you loseing weight?????

No!!!!, you don't think so do ya??? Yeagh!, maybe. It kinda looks that way to me.

75Lbs lighter. Wow what did you do!!!!!!! can I do it to?

people with this weight loss thing blow me away they really do.

They want to no how.

They are pissed at me, and no longer talk to me, cause they are still heavy.

Of course some people are delighted.

I saw my surgeon yesterday, and they are asking me to possibley become a spokes person for them, and the Lap Band, at there meetings I guess.

They have been kicking this around, and this is the first i hear of it. I'm sure they will kick it around untill more weight comes off. Shirley..:decision:

YES!!! They are wierd arent they!!

When I was in high school I lost 19 pounds and nobody but my librarian said a damn thing. I was so disappointed. I was starting from 204 then on a 5'7" frame.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
