How many to go until you reach 100lbs lost



Recommended Posts

hi july banders

just felt we needed another check in type thread. if 100lbs is too high for you right now then how close are you to 50lbs lost, 75lbs lost.

im 40lbs from 100lbs lost. i've decided to up my workouts by an hour. i'd really like to hit it by the end of Feb. i know thats agressive but it helps to keep me focused. any pounds lost is a gain to me.

100 lbs is too far away for me to think about it at this point. I hope to reach that goal at my 1 year mark, in July 2010. For now, it's one pound at a time.

Congrats on your great weight loss!

I have 35 to go. I can't wait to reach that mark. I am working towards reaching it before my one year bandiversary which will be June 17th. I think I should be able to do it by then. What I really want to do is reach it by my Mom's 76th Birthday in April. It would be such a great gift to her. She has been my biggest support. I am trying really hard to get there. Good Luck to you on your goal and keep us updated.

Wow! You guys are amazing. I can't think about 100 yet, but I am 8 pounds from 50!!! Yes!

My plan is to be at goal by my one year bandiversary as well. That being said, I need to step it up. I had my second fill last week, so hopefully that will help.

Happy Monday!:thumbup:

greytz..way to go you will be there before you know it

mary i know how i felt when i was so close to 50, its a great feeling. lets hope you knock those 8 pounds out in no time.

i never expected to have lost as much as i have so soon. i just figured since they say you lose better in the 1st year i better jump in and get it off.

i love hearing success stories and our level of success is different depending on our goals at the time. everybody can come here to brag on themselves.

I'm 48 away from 100lbs so just over halfway! Only one fill so far was due one in early Nov but my port had flipped (and is now completely loose) so I'm having that revised on New Years Eve. Here's hoping to another 48 soon!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
