diana89131 258 Posted March 3, 2014 I've started my weight loss journey at 267 and I am proud to say that I am 166. I went from a size 22 to a size 12. I need to lose 11 more pounds to hit my goal weight of 155. Every one tells me to stop now but not sure.

lark60 431 Posted March 3, 2014 I too have lost 101 since surgery (we started at about the same weight and surgery date is days apart!) I have 39 more lbs to loose to get to my goal (guess I am shorter than you) and have people telling me I don't need to loose any more but I ignore them. My goal is to get into a size 8. I do love that I fit a size 12 at the present (though I have a few size 14's that are too comfortable to get rid of just yet) and I have worn a size 10 dress (plenty of hip room in a full skirt). I say loose what you want and let everyone keep their comments to themselves. PS: You need to update your ticker to show your success! 1 kltklass reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catnapper 34 Posted March 3, 2014 Congratulations! Lots of hard work no doubt. Can't listen to other ppl always. Folks would tell me I didn't Really need to have WLS!? You look nice in pics. Your doctor will let you know if your weight is not at a healthy amount. Right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piercedqt78 658 Posted March 3, 2014 I started at 244 8 years ago, and had a lapband. I had major complications, and had a revision on May 8th 2013. I was 206 the morning of surgery, and I'm 120 now. I went from a size 22 to a size 6 in 10 months. Today: A few months before my revision surgery: 1 naenaern777 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
