Watch and See

[1Cor2:9 193]

As of my last weighing I am down 111lbs. Next Tuesday I will be eight months post op. My goal has always been to lose 150lbs by twelve months post op. That means I have a little over a four months to lose 39lbs. I think that I can make it. I understand based on what my dietitian has told me and what I read online that some bariatric patients do not even get to a normal BMI. I am not sure what the numbers are in that regards, but what does that have to do with me. I have lost 74% of my excess body weight. I have heard that once a bariatric patient losses 50% of their body weight they are a success. What that means is that I am already a success as far as they are concerned. I will be at 150lbs or close thereof by the end the year (I had surgery last December). If you have the same conviction about write me a comment.

Just watch and see...

Well done and Congratulations! Awesome result!

I am 1Ib away from being a sleeve success. I lost 60Ibs 5 months post op.

Well, my revised goal is another 22Ibs down, and my stretch goal is 33Ibs away.

I most certainly don't want to stop at my current weight.

I want to keep losing until I reach my goal, then maintain it.

My motivation is like yours, so I wish you all the best! We can do it

I'm with you too! My husband and I are bikers and he had Patches made for our vests from Philippians 4:13 "I can do ALL things through Christ who strengthens me..."
