Ok, not 150 years, but on Friday, I hit 150 lbs lost since my first consult. (My ticker tracks lbs lost since surgery.)    I now weigh what I did when I graduated college in 1985.  The funny thing is, I feel skinnier now than I did then.  I am not sure what is harder to comprehend, that I have lost that much weight or that I let my weight get that high.

My weight loss has slowed from 2-3 lbs per week to 1 to 1.5 lbs per week but I guess that is to be expected as the calorie deficit lessens. 

My first goal is 190 but I think it would be pretty cool to hit 167 and celebrate a bi-centennial.  That would be freshman in high school weight.

You're doing a great job!  And 1-1.5 pounds a week is still great.  Think about before the sleeve, on a regular diet that was all I ever expected to lose as time went by...you're doing awesome!

Start weight:  252 pounds 

High weight:  268 pounds

Wow! That's really great! 150 pounds down takes a lot of hard work and dedication to the process. It isn't easy - even with WLS. Congrats and keep on going. Best wishes for goal in a few more months.
