120Lbs Unreasonable?

Yes, it is doable, but they usually talk in terms of excess weight lost. I am told that losing 60-80% of "excess" weight is typical with the sleeve, but there are people who lose 100% of their "excess" weight. It takes more effort to get there including exercising and making sure you maximize the "honeymoon" period and lose as much as you can the first year.

I plan to lose about 90% of my excess weight (going by the BMI charts) to get to my personal goal of losing 150/ weighing 158. I am just over 30 pounds from that goal and I am almost 11 months out (surgery was 12/12/11)

Cowgirljane I am working out already and I want to maximize my loss by doing everything to the T. I will tell you, I let myself have a weekend where I ate the way I use to, I have been sick off and on since, and for me its a great reminder of why I was doing this I've been poisoning my body all these years I was extremely lethargic, and after this last weekend I'm I never care if I eat any of that food ever again. I'm excited that I finally have enough drive to do this Congrats on your weight loss everybody.
