100 just feels arbitrary after all the work I've put into my new lifestyle. Still, it's a BFD, I guess ;) I have about 60 lbs to go. My long term goal is 127, which is literally, the highest I can weigh and have a 24.99 BMI. I know BMI is just one metric, but it's the thing that's been shoved in my face for the last decade as "proof" of what was "wrong" with me. So I'd like to flip ole' BMI the bird. If I end up looking or feeling too skinny or unhealthy, I think my body will let me know when to stop losing. It's definitely slowed down at almost 6 months out.

You look great! Congrats! I hear you on the BMI thing. I feel like the weight at which I would be a normal weight according to the chart will make me look too skinny. I guess time will tell. Also, side note, I now want an Angry Orchard after seeing the sign behind you in the 4th picture. haha

You look great. Good job. Rock on!

FYI...your post title says "16 months," not "6," like in the post itself. Just an observation. SiX is even better! Congrats!

Thank you! And good eye! What l meant is, I started getting serious exercising & losing weight in July 2014, when I recorded my HW of 291. I lost 31 lbs prior to surgery and 70 since! Woot!

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
