Woo hoo! I've officially lost 20% of my total weight. I'm down 63 pounds total and I've lost 26 inches!

My next goal is 218, 30% of my total starting weight.

1. I'm so close to "onederland" I can taste it. Or, err, not taste it as the case may be.

2. I started rowing on Saturday, at the gym. The rowing machine kicked my ass. I vowed to it that I was gonna avenge myself and kick it back on Tuesday.

3. I've consistently tracked everything that goes into my mouth via myfitnesspal for a month. The moral of that story: more Protein.

All in all, it's been a good nine weeks since surgery.

I can walk for 1.5 hours when before 15 minutes would have been all I could do. I can stand for several hours at work now per day instead of sitting. I just hit my two-month mark yesterday and am down 31.5 lbs. Very motivated!

Just a hint over 3 mts post op..sleeve. around 53lbs down. I'm so happy I decided to pay out of pocket and got this done. I bought a pair of pj bottoms this weekend, in a size LARGE! Been married over 26 yrs, hubby has never seen me in a size large. It's amazing. Still have 100lbs or so to go. But..I got this.

Over 7 months out and just hit 70 pounds down. This means that my BMI is no longer considered to be obese. The last time I was this weight was in 1998. Fitting comfortably in size 10 pants and medium tops. Life is good!

I met my Protein goal for the first time today. I have struggled with liquids so I am pretty proud.

I think one thing that keeps driving home how much I've lost is my belt. I was on the fifth hole (tight) when I started all this at 385. I'm now on the last hole and will have to start punching new ones, before too long. I plan to make this belt a reminder of where I came from...I'm just going to keep punching new holes. Until someone tells me it looks ugly and I have to stop, that is.

I agree 100%! This is also the first belt that I've liked in quite awhile. I'm currently in the last hole and I will be breaking out the drill and drill bits shortly because honestly my belt is more of a decoration at this point. I was able to slide my hand into my pants without issue to adjust my underwear (which are now too large as well) without thinking about it yesterday. I guess that means that the pants are a bit too big as well!

I'm down 70 pounds...2/3 of my weight until goal.

I wear a size 12--smaller than I was in high school.

And this week I got my yellow belt in Tae Kwon Do.

I also added a profile picture to LinkedIn which I was always too embarrassed to do before.

Went see my dr last tuesday .... two day before my 7 year Band-anniversary.... weight 130... 100lbs lost and he said... you are now at a 23.8 BMI.

Then he asked me to be on his website as a testimonial that the band does work....
