Started at 271 down 126 to 145!

Thinking this may be goal for me at 5'7" so now all I have to do is stay here and get some things tucked up surgically!

I started at a high of 362 lbs. Surgery was on 12/23/13. My current weight is 218 lbs. My total weight loss has been 144 pounds!

Weight loss has slowed considerably but is still happening. Hit my goal of 230 in July but still moving slowly downward.

I started at 314 (although my pcp mentioned 324 as my highest weight) and had surgery on 12/10/2013.

I'm fluctuating between 167 and 169 as of late and seem to have leveled off. So down about 146 pounds and wearing size 34 pants.

I would like to lose another 5 pounds but grateful to be where I am.

Hello, guys!

I started at 238 lbs, was sleeved 11/17/13. Now I'm 151 lbs. I'm 5'5 and wearing size 6-8, depends on company. Yesterday, I bought few sweaters that x-small (!). Except of mod acid reflux, I don't have any complications. I feel very good and very happy with the results! I'm very nervous about food cravings coming back and gaining wt:((.

Before surgery my cravings were so strong that they were interfering with my daily life:((. I would spend most of my energy fighting it. After the surgery I didn't have cravings or touched simple carbs for ~ 6 months. I still don't eat simple carbs on regular basis but from time to time a have cravings, not as strong as in the past. My food choices are healthy 90-95% of the time but other 5%...:((. I'm working very hard to stay with plan to maintain my current weight and maybe loose another 5lbs.

Sleeved 12/31/21013, I've lost 78 lbs (232 to 154 lbs). I'm very happy with the results.

I'm finding myself more hungry some days and having cravings. I'm working out a lot, though, and generally eating healthier. I don't want any gains!

Ditto on the hunger and cravings. I jumped off the food logging wagon a month ago, and I have pretty much stalled and wildly fluctuated between 147 - 152 since. I really do want to get to 140, but don't quite have enough motivation to be as rigid as I was before..

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
