Mitten Phyllis 6 Posted December 1, 2016 Surgery date Feb 2nd. I was originally scheduled for December 10, but my work job couldn't work around my surgery time off until after year end (I am in accounting). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bunnies26 34 Posted December 1, 2016 So it has been almost a year since we all had our surgeries. Is anyone at goal yet? It is so nice to not have to say "I am going to lose weight"as my New Years resolution Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ssflbelle 829 Posted December 2, 2016 I had my surgery Jan 26th 2016 so not quite 1 year. I am 40 pounds from the weight the Dr wanted me to get to before skin removal surgery. He felt after the skin removal I would be at the goal we set up. In the 10 months since surgery have lost 95 pounds for a total of 277 pounds from my highest weight.

GirthyGirl 79 Posted December 28, 2016 My surgery was January 27, 2016. Can't believe it's been eleven months! I haven't had my December weigh in yet but as of November I was down 105 pounds. Finally hit onederland! Last time I saw that was in the mid 80's. I am about twenty pounds away from goal. I am having a few plastic surgery procedures so I estimate taking off another 15-20 pounds with that. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't imagine how wonderful you must feel hitting onederland. My surgery was a day before yours. Right now I have lost 95 since my surgery date and hope when I see the DR again at the end of Jan I can say I have lost at least 100 pounds. I too will have to have plastic surgery which the Dr feels should take off another 30 pounds. Sure sounds like a huge amount of excess skin. Let us know when you have the visit with the plastic surgeon. Keep going strong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
