And I'm down 65 lbs. I'm finally below 300 lbs, and I couldn't be happier. I haven't been this weight in ten years. Hell, I haven't even been close to it since 2012. I know I'm going to continue the weight loss too.

My highest weight was 427 lbs. April 2018. My weight on surgery day was 360.8. I weighed myself yesterday morning and was 295.2.

And do you have a firm goal to head to? My highest was 365+. my Surgery weight was 319, and 10 months later I have. broken the 200 pound barrier and am 198- 199. That's a place I never could be without WLS.

Ideally, I'd like to reach 175 myself. I'm 5'10"- 5'11"-ish. Realistically, I'd be happy with under 215.

It's really weird because I had been 298.2 on Friday morning, but then I was 295.8 on Saturday, and 295.2 yesterday, and now 296.2. Jagged little weight graph.

Your weight lost total is stellar. Nice work Ellf! Do you have go to meals most days?

I'm trying to find my groove still and I've hit a rut. Granted I haven't weighed myself in 3 weeks or so, but I know that I'm stalling a bit due to how things fit. I purposely haven't been weighing myself so I won't become obsessive about it.

Also, what's your workout regiment like?

Nice Job!

ps. almost forgot we have the same surgery date, so I'm curious because of that and where we are at the same time.

Nice Job!

My only two go-to meals are three light mini Babybel cheeses for Breakfast (50 cal each, 6 g Protein each), and Wendy's chili (which I can now eat a full small chili... for 21 grams of protein and 210 cal).

The rest I kind of play by ear. My workout consists mostly of me just walking around the office during the daytime and getting lots to drink. I should probably swim more, and am planning on getting some swimming in this week.

Thanks for the response, I love those Babybel cheeses. Before my surgery I used to buy the 12 pack and eat them all in one sitting. Those were my kryptonite for sure.

Mine is Cheetos White Cheddar Puffs, Chester Cheetos and Frito- Lay did a very very bad thing inventing those. Had a bag rolled up, secured with a big, think they are called File Bands, rubber band hidden next to my chair until Tomkitten found them , bawled me out, said maybe he would have to eat them himself to save ME. Yeah, eat a couple bags, you'll be 40 or above BMI and you'll get frog 🐸marched to my Bariatric Clinic in Columbus. Besides he was sniff sniff💦 coming between me and my Kryptonite!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
