Anyone Need To Lose 200+ Pounds

[Lindsey 11]

I'm 20 years old and need to lose 200+ pounds I don't know if I can do it. I would like to be under 200 pounds and I know that weight loss slows down after 15 months.

Anyone lose 200+ pounds in that time if so how did you

is it true if you lose weight before it makes it easier and you lose more weight

I am starting this journey with weighing 415 lbs. I am now down to 381 with the presurgery diet...and surgery is less than a week away. We can do this! Just believe in yourself and keep in touch. Us big girls gotta stick together!

I started this journey at 375. I need to loose 200 lbs to get to my goal weight of 175. I had surgery on 5/2/12 and I'm down to 291. Hopefully I will be at my goal weight by May 2013. Good luck!!! Let us all stick together!!

I started at 368 and am having surgery this coming monday... I need to weigh 165 according to my Dr.... You are not alone!! I gotta do it..No other options, no excuses!!

I'm in the same boat...

Initial consult weight was 348

Surgery day weight 323

Current weight 285

Goal weight 150....however I would say my goal is 148 do I could be down a total of 200, not 198.

I am 7 weeks post.

I'm on the same boat darling!

January when I started all my pre op stuff I was my highest 389. That number is going to forever be on my mind! Morning of surgery I was 359. Today 2 weeks post op I'm 338.

I asked my surgeon if 200 was realistic since that was my goal, and he said yes. we just have to follow all the guidelines set forth and do our part - remember its just a "tool"

Best of luck girls! I think we can do this! I want to be 160!!

i think what I'm most afraid of is not liking my new body. I have no desire to be a tooth pick but rather have curves and an ass i don't have boobs

I think that's an honest feeling. I don't have boobs either but have a butt. I honestly can't even imagin myself at 160... Or 200 for that matter. But no matter my size I want to be healthy.

At my highest I was 399. That was when I decided to do the surgery. I'm down to 349 now. Still waiting to schedule my surgery but I can't wait. They want me to loose 219.

I think its different for everyone. I started all of my pre op stuff January 30th. I needed to do 12 weeks of classes and other stuff... My surgery was 7/25. I was told I had to lose 10% so I ate very healthy no breads, Pasta, rice and walked. On day of surgery I lost exactly 30lbs I was shy 8lbs but it was ok. I didn't need a pre liquid diet just liquid day before.

The day of surgery I was 364. I'm 5 weeks post op and weighing in at 335. I want to be 160 so yes I need to lose 200lbs!
