Average time to loose 100 pounds....

How long did it take you to loose 100 pounds?  Just curious... I know everyone loses at a different rate, but I'm trying to get my enthusiasm for surgery back up to the high end! 

hi it took me about 2 and a half monts to loose 105 lb .

hi !!!!!!!  WOW!!! i am having surgery monday nov 27.......and to think i would loose  weight that fast blows my mind..everyone keep me in your prayers...hope to see u all on the losing side.  vickie

I started at 273, 5'6", was 50 years old and it took me exactly 10 months.  I'm now at 18 months and I'm down 131.  I only have 2 more lbs to dr's goal and 7 to mine.  I think I'm about average.   I know everyone says you can't compare yourself to anyone else but it's nice to know if you are doing about average anyway.

Hi, wow, 105 in 2.5 mos is really fast.. I've lost 77 pounds in three months, just to give you an idea, my starting weight was 338 DOS, and I'm 261 now... Stay excited, it's saved my life!

In 6 weeks i had lost 107 lbs...255 in 18 months..

I looked at your profile and we were of similar build. Linda

Wow! I hope I lose the rest of my 100 pounds like they did!  Way to go.

I've lost 81 in 3mo.  I'm getting close to that 100lb marker.  Can't wait. Good Luck to you. Christina

What a great question, Jewelring.  You sound like you are where I am - thinking the surgery is a great idea, but the closer and the more real it gets the more anxious I feel.  The answers you got just blew me away.  As far as I'm concerned, if 100 lbs is gone in a YEAR that's amazing, so these times are just mind=blowing! Hope it helped your enthusiasm!  I know it did mine. Ruth
