My surgery date is April 23rd. I currently weigh 297 lbs. Congratulations on your success.

I started at about the same point (294) on March 12. Now at 259 and dropping to 180 before I am done... Good luck to you!

So what is your exercise regime like? I was march 21st...only two weeks behind you and I'm only at 21 lbs....I've hit a plateau...although it does seem like I'm losing inches

My wife says "men loose weight faster and it isnot fair". Up til now, mainly walking, but just started back at the gym 3-4 times per week.

Panda have no fear I've been at a couple plateaus and it's annoying but it's worth it because I find that once the plateau is done for I start loosing faster! I normally loose about 5-6 lbs a week but during a plateau I only loose 1-2 lbs a week, but I'm happy with any weight loss because before surgery I could barely loose 5 lbs. in a month!

Thank you I really needed to hear that....: )....today I woke up and was 1 lb less than yesterday. Tomorrow is 1 month....so 22-23 lbs in one month is excellent!

[KevinsBabyGirl85 364]

22-23 lbs a month is AWESOME!!! That's basically how I did!!! I'm down 65 lbs. and I'm 3 months out I'm not exactly sure how much I lost each month but at your rate you should be down 60 or more lbs in 3 months!
