I was able to wear my red onsie which is 1x, it was collecting dust for years lol. Cheers to the wins! Congratulations!! You're right; the wins are awesome -- infectious even. Keep up the awesome work! 1 Deactivatedfatgal reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congratulations that is a big milestone My parents and I did Phen-Fen back in 1997-1998 and I lost from 275 down to 175. I was under 200 from about April 1997 to June 1998 -- the only time in my adult life that I was under 200 pounds. I have always remembered those dates, and this milestone is extra important to me because I've only been under 200 pounds for a short time of my 41+ years on this Earth. I've got 19 pounds to go. It's funny; my motivation is even greater now than it was before... 1 CStoned reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sullie06 1,013 Posted May 22, 2017 Congrats!!! It really is a huge milestone. I'm currently 14 pounds away from Onederland and 23 pounds from my first goal (190 lbs) and 38 pounds (175 lbs) from my surgeons total goal from me. It seems so close yet so far. My weight loss has slowed a bit this month but still losing 1-2 pounds most weeks. I'm a week shy of 5 months out so I'm feeling good. 1 blizair09 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My weight loss has slowed a bit this month but still losing 1-2 pounds most weeks. I'm a week shy of 5 months out so I'm feeling good. I understand how you feel. At this point, I don't have much to lose, so it is much slower. I expected it to be that way, but when you get so close to goal, you want to get there. I am hoping to get to goal by the end of the summer. I think that is realistic. Keep up the great work! You'll be there before you know it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sullie06 1,013 Posted May 22, 2017 Thank you, you too. I hope to get to my total goal by October 1st but I'm just taking it one week at a time. 12/30 will be my 1 year post op. 1 blizair09 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
