Hi guys. I'm having either the sleeve or the bypass 10th October - my starting weight at the pre-op diet was 230lb. Just wondering what other people's SW was :-) Lx

Highest weight was 249, date of surgery (2/11/13) I was 233. Today, 8 months out, I am 136

My highest weight was 340 back in Nov 2012. My starting weight was 321 in January 2014. Weight on day of surgery (7/25/13) was 284. Yesterday my weight was 238.

Wow I love seeing all these success stories!! Very encouraging ))

My starting weight was 280 And 1 1/2 later I'm 160. I'm 20 pounds away from my goal and I'm starting to struggle so maybe looking at these pics will help me. I'm not struggling from food or exercise my body has hit its plateau and my hardest stall yet!!

Oh my gosh!! Girl u look so nice. Youve come this far u will make ur goal ) God bless

Wow I jus can't imagine me looker that. Did u do anything special that could hepe me? I'm 9wks n 40#down. Dr says I should be down 60. he's got me worried.

I stuck to the diet and never cheated or ate anything I knew wasn't good for me. I didn't eat anything that said it had any kind of sugar or high fructose corn syrup. I walked everyday for at least 30 minutes...just walked. ... I remember when the nurse asked me to set a long term goal I said 120. She told me I should try for something more reasonable like 160. I agreed but inside I knew I wanted to be 120 ( even though the last time I was 120 I was in elementary school ). I was determined. Determination can take you as far as you want to go.

Hey Karin

That is what I would like for my goal to be. Can you give me an example of your daily eating schedule. Maybe you can be my mentor??? How tall are you?

That is great! Ur right. I need more discipline for myself. U gotta have faith n a goal. I just get side tracted sometimes.

Hey Kinsse we are really close in stats. I am a high wt of 320 lbs, sw 315, cw is 272 surgery on 8/8/13

Hw: 406

Sw: 376

Cw: 346

Surgery: 8/26/13

I seem to be a slow loser so far, with a couple of stalls, but maybe my body needs more time to heal. Each time I have pushed myself farther physically (running around taking care of a friend and her kids, walking 3+ miles), I have had an incision open a little and have a little drainage. So I guess I'm still healing.

HW 260

Pre band 244

Pre rny 222.9

After Pre rny diet 212.9

Surgery was on 9/9.I am 5 weeks out and the loss feels a little slow but I have lost over 18 lbs since surgery and 28 if you count Pre rny diet. Anyways, just trying to take it a day at a time.
