  1. 1. 5 Month Percentage of Total Weight Loss



Recommended Posts

Here is a new poll suggested by Katiebug - with instructions!

Weight Loss Percentage Formula:

Divide the weight loss by the starting weight and multiply the answer by 100.

Ex: Starting weight = 200, pounds lost = 5

5/200 = .025

.025*100 = 2.5%

Hi all Merry Losers!!!

Well today is my 5 month anniversary. I'm down 51 lbs and doing great. If I did it correctly, I'm 23% down. :lol: I had a little unfill a couple of weeks ago and I was afraid I would start eating and gaining...but not the case. I'm eating more but still loosing. :thumbup:

My older son got married Sat nite and all went well. Some people I haven't seen since surgery could not believe the change. I've been getting emails all morning commenting on the wedding and about how good I looked. This is a strange turn of events. I don't know about you, but I'm not used to getting compliments on my looks. My cooking yes!!!! ahahah I'm finally starting to see some difference, especially dressed. ahahah Undressed, I look like the Saggy, Baggy, Elephant.:eek:

I'll post pictures as soon as I get some back.:unsure:

I am only at slightly over 4 months and I am at 20.4%. That is 225 start less 179 current divided by 225 if I did it correctly.

I did not answer the poll yet but will in a couple of weeks once I see where I am at. I feel really good about my weight loss so far :0).

oops! I entered that I had lost almost half of what my total loss will be, and didn't do the correct calculation....I will do the poll again - is there any way I can remove my vote from the incorrect choice? Thanks!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
