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!

Not much to report but I did maintain over vacation so I'm excited about that.

Mooncat, I am a bit confused by your numbers. TPL from your HW is 136. TPL from your SW is 121. I wanted to make sure your CW was accurate, because I couldn't calculate a TPL number of 73, and want to make sure I get you down for your total weight loss!

So sorry! I have not been on here for a few days. It was a typo. I will NEVER weigh 107!!!! It was 170, which makes the rest of the math work out.

continuing to water exercise with friends which is helping to keep the weight loss going, although slowly (1 pound this week). It does seem to be changing my body though. Wish I had kept measurements all along.

1 pound lost this week! I will take that considering I developed a little bit of bursitis and haven't done any exercise the last 10 days.
