ShilohD 70 Posted March 28, 2017 I know to some, this might even seem silly... but for several years, I've been over 300 lbs. Before I even decided on this route, I'd been trying every damn diet i could think of to lose weight. I remember 3 times, or got down to the verge of getting under 300 lbs. But I never could quite tip the scale. I'd teeter totter on the edge, but never made it under.The day I started the pre-op diet, I was 333.6 lbs. March 6th, the day of surgery, I was 310.2Today, I weighed, and I am 298.0 I realize it's just 35 lbs and I still have a long road, but I cried. I haven't seen less than 300 lbs on the scale in over 3 years. I'm so grateful. For the first time, I actually feel like I got this. And I am so glad for this app. I just had to share my joy with someone. I felt like I was about to pop. 20 Diana Prince, Monikareigh, LilEngine and 17 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LittleLizzieLilliput 919 Posted March 28, 2017 It is so wonderful!! I celebrated big time twice so far, dropping below 300 and dropping below 200. Both were major and the third will be reaching my goal. I'm so happy for you!! It's so wonderful isn't it??? 1 ShilohD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm 303lbs and just have one more weigh-in this coming Saturday before scheduling my surgery. I haven't seen 250lbs in about 20 years and haven't seen under 200lbs in about 30years. I will lose my shit the day I enter Onederland! For sure lol!!! 1 queendeborahbee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
