I lost about 120 in seven months. I don't exercise, but I do try to go out and do things that involve walking around (I justify hitting malls by calling it physical activity).

I'm 11 months (and three days) post op...

I'm down 217 pounds (98.5kg) and have been thereabouts for weeks...

Admittedly, I've not watched my intake and I've had MANY alcoholic beverages recently, so I'm certainly not complaining..

My aim is to hit 220lb (100kg) lost by my anniversary...

That'll leave me at around 70% to goal* of 320lb lost by Christmas this year...

*I don't actually have a number as a goal. I have a "feeling". The day I wake up and feel right is the day I'll reach my goal.

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 am getting close to the 100# lose mark. Only 5 more lbs. Surgery us 8/3/15. I lost 40 before on the 6 month insurance requirement. Loving how much better that I feel.

Started my pre-op on March 1, 2015 (11 months ago). Lost 67 on preop diet. Had surgery Nov 24,2015. Have lost just about 90 pounds so far and am really hoping on my 1 year (starting this process) date that I will have lost 100 pounds. I will then be 2/3rd of the way through on my weight loss with only 50 pounds left. I think when doctors tell folks that they will only lose 60% of their excess weight that they are averaging in all those folks who don't follow the plan on what they should be doing. For those of us who do- I think getting to goal is SO achievable! Just look at all these wonderful folks on this site. That is why I log in a few time EVERY day. I don't want to forget that I need to keep on track and on this journey. Everyone encourages me-- from the veteran who is at goal and maintaining to the newbie who makes me remember why I decided to do this!

Good luck!

This is just what I needed. My surgery is Monday and I am so afraid of failure. This is so inspiring. Thank you all. I have lost 22 pounds so far and my dream weight would be for me to loose another 105 pounds

I think mix up you diet a bit that should help. Such as eat different foods then you normally eat and good luck. Stay strong!

Hey all! I have lost a total of 160 pounds. My starting weight was 290 before surgery. My surgery date(9/11/2014) I weighed in at 275. I reached my goal weight of 130 pounds @ 16 months. Now I'm just staying steady at 130 pounds :)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
