Has anyone lost 100+ pounds?



Recommended Posts

Just wondering if it is possible to lose this much, and if so, how long did it take you?

I know everyone is different. Just looking to hear some different stories :)

I lost 200. I lost almost exactly 50 preop (about 6 months, but about 20 of that was just in the 4 week preop diet I had), then after surgery it took me just under a year to lose the other 150. I exercised EVERY day and stuck to the post op instructions regarding diet religiously. I also tracked every bite of food in mfp. Best of luck to you! Listen to your doctors/nurses/p.a.s and it will happen.

I have heard of many who lost 100or more with the sleeve. I personally have lost 72 so far and I am only just coming up on 4 months out. I fully expect to lose about another 80-90 to hit my goal range.

I'm at 104ish from highest. I lost 15 or so before meeting with doctor. During preop I lost another 36 or so. I had surgery 10/26 (almost 3 months ago), and have lost another 52.2 - for a total of 103.8 (89.2 since meeting surgeon 8/12, 52.2 since surgery 10/26).

Down 105 lbs in 8.5 months no pre-op diet since my surgeon doesn't do one. It's mind blowing that I only have 40ish lbs to reach my first goal.

      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! 😞
