I'm here too!  I lost 27 pounds before surgery and 136 since for a total of 163.  I'm 5'4" and I weighed 280 the day of surgery and now weigh 144.  I'm wearing size 8 and some size 6 pants, and I've NEVER been this small - I weighed about 162 at my lowest in college.

Congrats to all the July 2008 people!

I'm here.

I lost 23 before surgery and 147 since.

I'm down to a size 12 but now I'm pregnant and they aren't comfy in the waist so back to 14s I go.

I feel fantastic!

congrats to you both!!

I don't know where everyone is either? But I am glad you found this website. You will get a lot of support.

Check out all of the forums, many more that have a lot of great feedback.

Wow you are doing great!!

I want to lose about 10 more too. I really need to get to a gym and work out with some weights, I think that would make me feel less jiggly.

Congrats on the size 8 that is awesome!!

Well done on your incredible success! It must be great to be so close to your goal weight!

I too am losing about 2lbs a week now, sometimes more, sometimes less, it all depends! I wi**** would go a bit quicker, but I really can't complain as my success has been great so far! I still have about 40+ lbs to lose to get to goal, and I'm planning on a tummy tuck (when I can afford it) as I have alot of excess skin on my stomach.

I'm hoping that the wedding will be wonderful too, and that I'll look like a princess,regardless of how much more weight I lose between now and then, I'm sure I'll look much better in my dress than I would have at 368lbs!

Best Wishes to you!

Vicky

140 pounds is awesome!!!!! I have lost a total of 113 since my surgery on 7-7. I would like to lose about 10-15 additional pounds. I continue to lose about 1-2 pounds a week so I cannot complain.

I feel the same way you do, this is such a new beginning. I love the way I feel and look. Finally I can say that out loud!!!

Congratulations on your new life and I hope you have a wonderful wedding!
 
Keep in touch.

Topic: 9 Months!
Oh my gosh! Where have the last nine months gone? I can't believe that it is 9 months since I had my surgery on the 18th! So I just thought I'd see how everyone else is doing?

Nearly 9 months out I have lost 140lbs, with about 40+ lbs to lose to goal! The weight loss has really slowed down in the past few months, so I'm reassessing what I'm eating, and upping my exercise! I'm determined to get as close to goal as possible by my one year surgiversary. Last year the 18th July was important to me as it was my new beginning, well this year the 18th of July is even more significant as it will be my wedding day! I am so excited, in 14 weeks time I will be married! My life has changed so much for the better!

Hope everyone is continuing to be successful!

BEst Wishes to you all!
