tomorrow will mark 1 year- Started off at 330, now weight 255- according to the charts I need to be 135 which means I've lost 38% of my excess weight. 

I don't see myself being 135- I have really high muscle mass %, always have- I've always worn smaller sizes than my weight should have dictated.... but we shall see.  I'm trying really hard to not get caught up on a number.  I've gone from 26/28 pants to 18/20 pants and 26/28 tops to 14/16 tops (some 18's if they are fitting).

I have lost 50% of my excesss weight

But... I have never spoken about goal with my doctor. My realistic goal is 150 and with that I have lost 57% of my excess weight.

127% is what they told me at my 1 year post op visit.  (I suck at math) 

My goal was 150, I'm at 127.
