I'm Overweight :-)



Recommended Posts

Well, although it feels unusual to Celebrate being "overweight" but I'm positive y'all know how that is an improvement from Obese.

5'9" and yesterday weighed 202.0 on the scale for a BMI for 29.8.

I'm shooting for the "1" by the end of the month. It will be awesome to say I weigh "One hundred xx"

Weight loss has slowed quite a bit, but I was 303# this time last year, and didn't get the surgery until July of 2018, so it is shocking how fast the weight is falling off.

Thank you both. Went down from a 48" s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d waist to a 38" waist.

I literally have no more work clothes that fit, and I got this job in 2008 and had kept all sizes in between 😎

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
