My high weight was 274. Surgery weight, 4/15/14, 254. Today, 12/4/14, 203 (-71 lbs). I'm glad about this but how are you all losing so quickly? I'm so close I can taste ONEDERLAND, and I'm oh so desperate to see it. It's been 8 months on 12/15. Any pointers?

You didn't give much info about your current eating and exercise routine, but I would suggest going back to basics. More Protein, fewer carbs, and kick up the exercise a little. Even an extra 10 minutes a day will add up. And of course remember that everyone is different. Some lose weight faster than others. The fact that you are down 71 pounds in less than 8 months is fantastic! Just keep it up!

Thanks. I'm still doing the 80gms of protein per day. I need water constantly. I think some days I don't eat enough. It seems when I do the scale goes down. I'm eating one to two meals per day and shakes. I've always eaten like that.

Wow. Congrats. Your almost there. Just have a little bit more patience.

I am 8 months on the 23rd and feeling like you. Starting weight 256 now 195 but struggling to get any lower my dr said try the paleo diet but I really don't want to diet frustrated
