Hit the elusive 169# !

[Fluffy Grandma 89]

I hit 169.4 today!! I’ve not been under 170 lbs since the early nineties. That was using Phen-Fen, which was banned. Since then no matter what diet I’ve done, I get to 172 and no further. I would then get discouraged and gain it all back, plus some. I’ve been bouncing around 171/172 for weeks now. Totally skipped 170 and weighed in at 169.4.!!!

This makes my goal feel so much more attainable 😁

Woohoo

How many lbs have you lost to get there?

When and what surgery did you have?

My starting weight was 241. Then 224 at gastric bypass surgery in August. That nbr of 170 has been like a springboard every time I lose weight. I get that far and then right back up I go so this was so encouraging. I’ve heard that alot of yoyo dieters have a certain setpoint that they just can’t seem to get past. This was mine.
