jasleeve 440 Posted October 5, 2012 i started at 273lbs. i weighed myself 2 days ago and i was 158lbs. my bmi went from 51.6 to 29.9. according to online bmi calculators, i am officially no longer OBESE! i am considered overweight. im so happy! i wear a size 6ish in jeans. some of the 6s fit a lil loose & some are skin tight. this surgery has truly put me through hell but im glad i am alive and living! 9 xavtay2, TamaraS, Lissa and 6 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mgj5us 0 Posted October 5, 2012 You are I are alot alike. I started my journey at 264 lbs and I'm currently 158. I wear mostly size 8 and some 6's. I'm still trying to lose 8 more pounds. That would be my personal victory. I've plateau and I go up 3 lbs then back down. I feel fabulous but I want to make it to my personal goal. Great job!

Pepper Paul 143 Posted October 6, 2012 Congrats Jasleeve! I recently read through your whole complications thread. The great part about reading about it this late in the game is that I didn't have to wait to find out the outcome. I'm glad things worked out well for you in the end, even if it was a terribly rocky road at the beginning. I'm to the point that I'm willing to risk a couple months of pure hell to get this weight off. Thanks for sharing your story! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
