Weight today 166
Start weight 300
Pre-op weight 256
Total loss 144
7 months out feeling happy. 7 more pounds to an healthy bmi. 26 pounds to end target would love to do both by 10th of July 2016, my 1 year surgiversary rosary. But I'm not sure weight lost is a bit slow, average of half a pound a week.

Hey Just saw this post, I weight yesterday 159 pounds, from 238 day of surgery, so quite happy. one set back is that I now need to have my gallbladder removed but quite happy so far. Nothing really major, put on about 2 pounds and back on losing again, quite slowly but I take what I can. I never really counted my calories so I can say how much I'm eating. But I can say I can eat slightly more than before. I still havent touched sugar since surgery and I believe is the reason why I never dumped. So I will carry on...Wishing luck to everyone and hopefully you all doing great too.

Hey guys as I'm weeks away from my surgiversary I can truly say I'm grateful for my surgery. I still want to lose a further 7 pounds to hit my target.
Starting weight 300
Current 157
Target 150
I buy size 10 in most clothes plus the odd 12
On the poopy side I hate my deflated breasts loose skin on my thighs and sack around my tummy. My arms are not too bad if I don't lift them too high. In clothes with a good bra I look fab out of all that I look drab. Low Self esteem and self pity are real when it comes to loose skin. But I would do it all over again. Hope you fellow July peeps are doing fine

My surgiversary was last monday 4th July too. But I was busy the whole week so didn't get the chance to write a post.
I weighted 147lbs this means I'm 2 pounds away from my target, I'm very happy with my weight loss, had my gallbladder removed in may and I'm totally recovered by now. Still feeling a bit a tired but new vitamins and supplements are helping. This week have been full of great things, I got a new job which was so unexpected as I applied with very little confidence that I would get, but I'm very very happy I got it. a bit nervous because it'll be a challenge for me but I believe I can do it. Anyway, just sharing with you guys I hope life is great for everyone and wishing all the best for anyone starting this journey, it is really worth it. :whacky068: just keep moving.

As we head to our second surgiversary I hope you guys have reached your targets set for last year and moving in to New ones. I have iost 150 and I'm a 150. i would love to lose another 3-7 pounds but it's a great struggle my body won't give anymore. I would love to loose some inches as well by toning up. Loose skin is depressing even though it's not as bad as I thought it would be I still hate it.
