Goal weight?

[beth423 33]

How long did it take everybody to get to their goal weight?? I am almost 11 months post op and I am slowing way down on losing and getting scared!!

Hi kiddo! How ya doing? I'm losing extremely slow. I've lost 82 in the10 months. I'm still at 200, I've had to have my abdomen opened up twice to have some hernias repaired. I may never get to 160, and that's ok if I don't. I got rid of the diabetes, so I'm happier than I was!

From what I have seen and read you lose for a year to two. Depends. I am about 33 lbs from goal weight and I am 6 months post op.

I've been getting that same feeling lately. Im about 25 pounds away from my goal. But the weight loss is sooo slow. Maybe a pound a week or month at this point. - 9 months out.

I am losing about a pound a month now. I was a year out in feb. but I have also hit my goal weight and just want to maintain now in the 150's so I don't start looking sickly. I'm a big boned girl and the 150's is about where I want to stay. May seem like a lot to some but at 5'7" I think it's a great weight.

I am 5'1" I have lost 100lbs. I to am bigger boned. At this point I am at 178. I am wanting at least 150 lbs. I feel like I am never getting there!!

Beth... You will. I thought the same way and still have a hard time believing I am where I am. That dang mind just won't keep up. 100 lbs is awesome and in a blink of an eye you will be where you want to be

I finally reached mine last week. In fact I reached my goal weight of 150 ( and then passed it), and 100 lbs lost. I am currently at 146 which puts me at 110 lost. I am 10 months out!

I am amazed everyday that this is the new me!

I haven't moved an ounce down in two months. I am at 11 months. I have lost a total of over 125 lbs. But would love to lose another 20.
