I started out at 275 I'm 5'7". I am 8 months post op and down 97
pounds. Rate of loss is different for everyone. I know a lady who lost 100
pounds in 5 months and another who did it in a year. My personal goal is to
lose 100 pounds. I am frustrated that I can't seem to drop these last 3. I
have to remind myself of the 97 I've already lost. I have come a long way
and I am proud of my success this far. It's hard not to compare your weight
loss with that of others,and we really shouldn't compare. Our bodies are
all very different. You are doing well with your loss,keep up the good
work.

Hi Wendy, your weight loss has been great. And after the 6 month mark, it
begins to slow down, so we have to be patient. If there was an average
weight loss- you seem to be there. I probably hit my 100lb. weight loss
mark at about 7-8 months post-op. I'm now almost 11 months and have lost
115 total. I weight 135, but want to be at 130. If you want to try to break
your plateau- increase your water, up your protein, exercise an extra day,
etc. Or if you wait it out- it will eventually break. Try switching up your
routine and changing some food patterns- that always seems to help me!
Goodluck to you

Well, I don't know exactly when it was. According to my profile, I don't
have a recorded weight between 6 weeks and 6 months. However, at 6 months I
had lost 105 pounds. I would have to guess it was at 5 months that I had
lost exactly 100. I started at 263. BTW-You're doing great! Shelley

It is different for everyone. As a general rule, the heavier you are to
start with, the quicker you make it to the 100 pound mark. I am 14 months
post-op and stuck between 96-98 and have been this way for a few months. I
know I will see 100 or more (and goal was 105) but it sure would be nice to
be there already...

I lost my first 100 pounds in 110 days. I've lost the next 67 pounds in
the next 148 days. I started at 427 pounds and now weigh 260 as of my
last weigh-in on 4/1...JR

I made the 100 mark at 5 1/2 months. I agree with the other posters - it's
a very individual thing. I am now 13 months out and have lost 160, so as
you see, it took nearly 7 months to lose the next 60 after I hit the 100
mark. It definitely slows down - or atleast it has for me. I have been
stuck at my current weight for about 7 weeks now. I still want to lose
another 15 lbs, but boy the scale isn't budging right now!

loss" mark in mid-December 2002 (down to 168 lbs. from 268 lb. consult
weight); reached 100-pound loss mark in mid-January 2003 (down to 156 lbs.
from 256 lb. day-of-surgery-weight); reached goal in late February 2003
(147 lbs.; I'm 5'7"). Since then, bouncing between 144 -148 lbs., and

I hit 100 pounds in 6 months. However, it does slow down. Between 6
months and 11 months only 38 pounds. I am still so amazed everyday at 138
pounds gone. I started at 310.

Even though I'm a slow poke...I'm SO HAPPY to be able to actually answer
this question. Just hit 100 lbs. lost about a week ago, a few days shy of
my 11 months anniversary. Twelve more to goal. Hugs, Joy

16 months. Like Cindy is doing now, I bounced b/w 96-98 for a couple of
months, then finally hit 100. Now down 105 lbs. and 17 mo. post-op. Yes!
I lost 5 lbs. in March! Can't believe I'm still losing! 245/140

I hit 100 lbs. at 7 months 2 days post-op (not that I kept track or
anything....). I am 5'4" and weighed 314 the day I got home from the
hospital. I have now lost 114.5 lbs and just hit 199.5 TODAY! Hip, Hip,
Hooray!
