At the suggestion of a fellow sleever (thanks DeezJeans) I'm starting a post-op success story thread. This can be a 'numbers' thread...when you do your weigh in's, you can post your pounds lost here, and we can keep a running total. We can use this thread JUST for pounds lost!

Looking forward to the thousands of pounds we WILL be losing!

Here's what we would like to do. Please send me a private message with your goal pounds lost. (Meaning, if your goal is to lose 150 pounds, just jot that down in a quick private message and send that to me.)

Then we will compile all the pounds from everyone who wants to participate, and post the full amount, and then work towards those goals with weekly updates. We will be recording those pounds lost AFTER surgery!

You will still post your pounds lost on this forum here so we can Celebrate all of your victories (and I will keep track of them on my trusty spreadsheet, and then report the weekly pounds lost)

If you have any questions, please let me know!

Down another 2 pounds this week and tried on a size 12 of my favorite Wrangler jeans...fit great, but I'm not buying yet. Sticking with thrift store purchases until I stabilize.

Total lost 61 pounds

Last two weeks weight loss was minimal, but I could see changes in my body and the way clothes fit. Others noticed and commented too. I have had other similar periods during this journey. Almost as if my body can either drop weight or adjust how it carries weight, but not both as the same time. Has anyone else experienced this?

Happy Mother's Day!!!!!

No lbs. loss for me this week. Lost 4 inches. It's still a loss in my book.

Actually, I weighed myself again this morning and realized that I'm in onederland. It's very hard for me to believe that I weigh less than 200 pounds as it seems like yesterday I was over 300 pounds.
