Has anyone lost 100+ pounds?

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 ex

Close to 6 months post op and down 95 lbs ????????????

My weight loss started this past june, my surgery was this past september. So far i have lost 150lbs

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.

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.

i'm 6 mo, 7 days post op. 171 lost this morning. 4 x a week aerobics(1 zumba), then i walk the track straightaways and jog(JOG!!!) the curves 1-1.5 miles. if it goes in my mouth, it is weighed/measured and tracked in a journal. training for a 5 K may 1 st! ME...IN...A...RACE!!!

Have lost 119 pounds in 7 months with the sleeve. Hoping for goal weight before one year anniversary.

You guys are all amazing. Holy geese this gives me motivation!!

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 :)

@@sweetcin Congrats on the weight loss!
