Sabs211 51 Posted April 15, 2020 Congrats! I had MGB March 16th and have only lost 18lbs but i lost over 100lbs prior to surgery. It's deffo going slower than expected and I'm struggling to cope without my coping mechanism of food but I'm staying positive and thinking it'll be worth it. 1 DeadSpaceGrave reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New&Improved 1,780 Posted April 17, 2020 That's a huge accomplishment especially as women generally lose slower. I started my journey at 322. got down to 257 by surgery Oct 28 and I'm now 170lbs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
