DonnaJeanne 3 Posted July 13, 2016 Congratulations!!! I am so happy to read your post today. We are almost exactly the same..i was sleeved 5/17. Hw 254, Sw 230..on monday I also made it to onederland. I was so excited...30lbs! Whoot. Then I saw my nut the same day who burst my bue and told me they expected me to be down 40lbs..by the two month mark. I was so down after that. Readinng your b post tells me I have no reason to be down..and am right where I am suppossed to be. We are killing it!! Go us!!

kmorri 1,689 Posted July 13, 2016 @@DonnaJeanne I agree we are killing it and thankfully my surgeon is thrilled with my progress! But they didn't weigh me on the day of surgery just during my pre-op appointment which was just before I started my two week pre-op diet.. Congrats on your progress and keep on keeping on!!

milpreve 38 Posted July 13, 2016 Hooray! I am going to cry when I find Onederland. Today I weighed myself just for fun (I'm one week post-op) and was 255... I haven't been able to break below 260 in years. I was 265 surgery day. I'm so happy I did this, and I can't wait to join you at the Mad Hatter's tea and Protein cake party!

Freckles70 25 Posted July 14, 2016 @@kmorri @DonnaJeanne. My stats are also very close to yours. DonnaJeanne, I think it sucks that your NUT burst your bubble. My surgeon has been extremely pleased with my progress. I'm 5'6" my HW was 254, surgery weight was 229 on 5/10/16 and I hit Onederland on Sunday which was exactly 2 months/nearly 9 wks postop . Today my weight is 196.5. My next goal is 185 which will make my BMI *only* overweight (instead of obese). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
