June Post Ops!

[Weight Warrior 445]

I had a big milestone today...I have officially lost 101 lbs since surgery! That makes 140 lbs from my highest weight!

Life is really starting to fall in place for me and I am happier than I've ever been. I hope everyone is having the same positive results from surgery, and not just in weight lost, but in all our non-scale victories too!

Heck yea! life is sweeter than any treat i can think of. Congratulations on the scale victory but more so on the off scale victories.....you rock!

Have a great day :-)

Hi, June 19th SW 203 CW 138 I was stalled forever! I log everything. I finally tried the 2 days of Protein Shakes only and lost 2 lbs over night. Trying to get to 125. I'm 5'1. XXL and 18/20 sizes to M and 6/8 pants depending on brand. Ignore my bedroom mess! I buy new clothes weekly and throw out stuff daily! It's never clean! Lol

My personal goal is 135, I'm at 156 now, you look amazing...I'm in a size 8 now, my goal is a size 6...wow, I'm discussing sizes, coming from a size 18/20. Thank you Jesus.

I couldn't agree with you more!! I have three pounds to go until I hit 100 pounds since surgery. When I hit, it will be 139 pound weight loss since April. I said in my Christmas letter this year that for the first time I really feel like I have the tools to make this work. That feeling is SO liberating!!

Reading all these posts makes me nervous for my 6 month appointment next week. Don't get me wrong... I feel great! I am nervous that my surgeon may say I haven't lost enough. Everyone on this June group seems to have lost so much more than I have. I am around 70 pounds lost. Should I be at 100 already? Again... So nervous!

Hi All,

I had my 6 mo appt last Thursday at Carolinas Weight Management in Charlotte, NC! I have lost 60lbs since my surgery on 6/10/13. While that isn't as much as I would have liked, I am pleased. I've hit a plateau...again...but that's OK. I still make incremental drops. I figure if I keep it slow and steady, I'll win the race regardless. :laughs: Since I made the decision in January, as of today, I have lost 92.2lbs. I'll take it!

To quote Grandpa Duck.. I'm Happy, Happy, Happy!

ttfn,
