For those of you who have lost that much weight, first of congrats and how long did it take to lose it? 6 months, a year, longer? Taking this day by day can sometimes be overwhelming and I often find myself wishing it were already 6 months later because I can’t wait to get to where I’ll be by then. I started my bypass journey at 304lbs May 21st and I’m now 270lbs

If this question triggers you then walk away and spare me with the don’t compare yourself to others and everyone loses at a diff rate!

I want to and I also want to enter my surgery date and all that stuff but I don’t know how [emoji30]

I’m 5’5 my first goal weight is 250lbs then 200lbs and lastly 150lbs. I’ve broken it down into a few goals because it’s easy to get discouraged looking down from being so far up but the smaller goals are my “way to go, you’re almost there” pat in the back [emoji38] What’s your goal weight?

It took me six months from my surgery date, which was my personal goal. I was heavier than you but am a slower loser. Slow, but consistent.

I wouldn't say 100lb in six months was slow, that's an average of nearly 17lb per month.

My surgery weight was 369. It’s all relative. It’s slower than many people with that starting weight. But I’m fine with my progress.

I’m at 90 lbs (woot!).... just over 6 months

That’s pretty good.. congrats! Considering the scale has never been so generous to us before.

About 6.5 months I should hit it at my 'official weekly weigh in' Tuesday. Would have been about a month sooner, but I have increased calories a lot as I exercise and that slowed things a little. I had the sleeve so a bypass likely would be quicker

I have my fingers crossed ?

@Myaiku_Kuraitani why did you choose RNY over the sleeve at your SW? Just wondering

I see that you followed up and entered your current stats. Keep updating them, as the Current Weight and Weight Lost lines can be inspiring... I know they are for me.

It took me about 4 months.

It took me from May 5th to January 27 to lose 100 pounds. From 327 day of surgery to 227 approximately 8 months post op! Almost 26 months post op and still losing! I think I’m down 152-ish at this point.
