My surgery was June 18th too. I'm down 55 pounds 5 more and I'll reach Onderland!

Still have 85 to reach goal, but I'm very happy with my progress so far!!

My surgery date was June 19th. I was in the hospital the first week post-op, and have lost 50.8 pounds since the 26th (I was jacked full of IV fluids the first week post-op, so I start my timer from the 26th, when I got home).

My total weight loss (from my highest weight, at the end of March) is 103 pounds!

Yay us!!

Wow, congrats. Is that all pre-op? Are u a man, just curious cause they seem to lose faster.

My surgery was June 6th, and I'm down 68 pounds. Sometimes I get down because I have soooo much more to go (about 160 lbs) until goal, so I have to constantly remind myself to take it one pound at a time.

[TaniaB 37]

I have 150 more lbs to lose too... And at this rate going to take 2yrs to get to goal, but at least now I know I'll get to goal...

[Linds324 32]

Sometimes when I see that people with lower BMI's have lost around the same as me, yet will be at goal in like 30 pounds, I can't help but get a tad jealous. Bad, I know.

Thank you. Yep, I am a man. It's really not fair how much faster we lose. I had my first appt with my NUT on march 30 this year and I was 373lbs then. We started following her guidelines on April 1. I got sleeved on June 5, and was about 325 then. So, if your going from since surgery, I'm down 72, but from the start of the journey, 115. I've been working really hard and my wife, who is a non-op, is such a great supporter that she has lost 54! She is my hero.

Sleeved June 26th started at 276lbs and have lost 36lbs. My personal target is to lose another 135lbs. Slow progress, but progress all the same :-)

I was sleeved June 18, starting weight 334, weight as of this morning 264!!! That's 70 lbs gone! I am so excited that I only have 89 more lbs to go,

Lost 30 pounds last summer...started to gain it back. Decided to see surgeon in November when I started gaining back and was 299 then. I immediately started following their plan and lost 10 pounds a month during the 6 month pre-approval monthly weigh ins, which equaled 60 pounds during the pre-approval phase.

Lost 10 pounds during the 14 day pre-op shake fast (which was definitely less than others lost during this phase though I never cheated) and I have lost 50 pound since surgery on June 4th. Because of losing steadily for months, I have obviously lost less since surgery than others, but it makes sense having lost my Water weight and more weight prior to surgery, which = since going to the bariatric clinic first weigh in, my lost is 120 pounds.

I have steadily been losing though I have had plateaus that last over a week, I'm very happy with my progress.

If you count my highest weight from last summer it equals 150 pounds lost in a year, I lost an entire person.
