I'm a little more than 6 months post op. I hit my surgeon's "success goal" about 4 months after surgery. I am at a healthy BMI for the first time in 20 years. I am now going to lose 10 more so that I have some wiggle room in the healthy BMI range. The weight loss is very slow now, and I think my body is quite happy here (so am I!). I would also like to incorporate more regular exercise now. I exercise about 70 mins, twice a week. Trying to find a third day a week. Would like to take some yoga classes as well.

I'm also 6 months post-op, and I also met my surgeon's goal at 4 months. I'm still 11 pounds overweight, though.

50 lbs down almost 4 months out. Progress is progress but I hit so many slow downs. Weeks that I stay the same. I was told that by April I should be around 180 but it doesn't look like I will reach that goal.

16 days post op. 29 pounds down since starting the pre-op diet (15 since surgery).

"I’m going for the gastric bypass and have set my surgery date (or am trying to get one set)."

I am a VSG patient, actually.. but this was the closest option :) Surgery is set for 3/29!

I’m 3 years out this month.
