My highest weight was 527 lbs and I now currently weigh 302 lbs and am still losing. I am so excited. I made this post to introduce myself and to find out more about you guys. So please feel free to share your stories here. Thanks guys and God bless you all!

Hi Danny! My name is Aimee. Congratulations on the weight loss! What an accomplishment! I am still pre op but I am close to getting scheduled, just need to get to my goal weight in order to have surgery. I can't believe you've lost that much weight in that amount of time! I just can't even imagine losing that much weight. I am so excited for this to begin! I was really struggling to stay on track with my weight loss but recently was put on Metformin and its really helping with the weight loss. I'm also on the liquid diet and not cheating like I was.

I have five lbs or less to lose to get scheduled. I am just so ready to have it and start this journey. So my highest weight was 321 and last week I was weighed at 307. Don't know what I weigh now but am hoping to get weighed tomorrow when I bring my daughter in to the doctor.

I am in MN. Where are you? Hope to meet people here and to hear from you soon!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
