Nine months post op...how's everyone?

[Fab@Forty 24]

Hello my fellow September 2014 WLS folks! Let's talk progress.....

HW - 323

SW - 297

CW - 207

Total lost - 116 lbs! I started at a size 26 and I'm currently a size 14 (in "regular non-plus size" stores).

I am totally happy with my weight loss, but I can't wait to hit ONEderland! I had set a goal of being under 200 by my 40th birthday and I am not sure I am going to make it (I only have 4 days to go)! UGH... I know that I will get the soon, I'm just a bit disappointed ???? I just need to kick up my cardio and strength training!

How's everyone else?

Hi there!

I had my bypass on Sept. 26,2014

HW - 315

SW - 310

CW - 199

I hit Onederland last Monday and have been bouncing back and forth between 199 and 200 all week. I am looking forward to getting another 5 lbs down so I never have to look at that 200 number again.

I am recuperating from a serious spine surgery so I am on restriction from anything but walking and am up to a little over a mile a day until I can't take it anymore. Hopefully I will be able to extend to more this week. It's kind of a bummer because I was doing an hour of cardio every day prior to this little set back. Makes me feel like I am back to 310lbs, I get so tired and sore. However, I will not let it get the best of me.

I have 34 lbs to go to get to goal and I can see that light coming closer all the time!

Having this bypass gave me my life back! And other than my spine I am the healthiest I have been since my mid 20's! No more comorbitities!

Woot, woot!

@@Djmohr - great job!! You and I have lost the same amount of weight! I totally agree with wanting to be as far away from 200 as possible! My ultimate goal is to be less than 160lbs. I think that for me height, I'm supposed to be 135lbs (ha ha)!
