 I've lost a good deal more than I currently weigh--137 and I lost 170 lbs in just under 2 years.  I'm a week over two years out of surgery (2 yr surgiversary was last week)--BMI 18 something.

I had my surgery on Sept 21, and I've lost 102 pounds so far.  I love my DS!

I've lost just over 170, so I've lost significantly more than I currently weigh. My highest was 317, day of surgery I was 301 (lost on pre-op liquids). I made it to the surgeon's goal weight of 152 (middle of normal BMI range) by 10 months post-op and I've drifted down so that any given day my current weight is 145-148. Been happily maintaining there the past 5 months (through all of the holidays). I'm 5'9" and starting out I wore 26/28 in tops, 24 in pants. I currently wear Medium or 8/10 in tops & dresses (I'm broad shouldered, an apple shape) and 4/6 in pants depending on brand. Also lost a shoe size and 2.5 ring sizes. :D

I am coming up on a year out from my DS and float around between 136 and 140, so that puts me anywhere from 109 lbs. to 113 lbs. lost.  Once I hit 140, which was my goal, I stopped "trying" to lose anymore weight.  That means I've actively upped my carb intake, while still getting in at least 150-200 grams of protein in a day.  I'm wearing a size 4, so I figure I've gotten small enough!

But is it fast enough so you can fly away
You gotta make a decision

 I've lost 166 lbs. Went from 320 lbs to 154, 51.6 BMI to 24.9 BMI in 15 months. 

If I never lose another pound, I'll still be thrilled. But I still seem to be losing slowly and wouldn't mind losing another 10-15 lbs. But I'm not planning to knock myself out to do it.
