I was just calculating that out. I have 10 pounds to go to be just over weight. So that is my next goal. Almost there. :wacko:

WOOOO HOOOOOO!! Girl, you are one hot overweight chick!! My "next" goal was actually reached today. After losing 80 lbs, I finally weigh what my drivers license says I weigh. :P The next one is in 20 more pounds when I hit 220. That will be 100 lbs gone!!

I have 8.1 pounds to go before I get under 200 - which is exciting in and of itself and it will be the least I have weighed in about 25 years. I got close to the 200 mark about 8 years ago and then my body quit losing, I got frustrated, and started eating my way back to 300+ pounds. So this particular milestone is one I am both looking forward to and scared of. What if the same thing happens as last time and I just can't do it? Etc.

The last time I was this weight was when I almost died and couldn't eat for 3 months. This time around it's been a lot more fun to get to it! But like you, I'm now in new territory. The next landmark for me will be 175 lbs, which I can remember weighing 19 years ago!

Good news is, this time you will keep losing and you can't eat enough to gain back all the weight. Gotta keep the faith, right?

Congrats and welcome to the overweight club. I hope to stay here for the rest of my life. To reach the "normal" club I only need to lose 38 more pounds. Really? Where would it come from?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
