Hi Lilli! Congrats on the weight loss, you seem to be doing really well. I had Gastric RNY on 4/2/12 and I am down 42 pounds so far. So far this surgery has been very easy for me, no real complications and I feel great. Welcome to the group0

Welcome, I had my surgery 5-15, while May's loss was pretty stellar for me I seem to be stalled out this June even though I've returned to the gym. Either way though I feel great and am staying on track so that when this stall is over I can hope to be in the one hundred club by the end of June or July. I'm 5-4 and my goal weight is 145. Thrilled to have you join the group and I'll be even more excited to watch your progress as you head even closer to your goal!0

Laura, I wonder how you decided to drop to 135, or if your body chose that stop point. I'm one week out, and my doctor tells me 180 is a likely result, but I'm inclined to wish I looked more like you do. I guess my question is about goal setting. Did you get guidance about how much to lose, or did you just play it by ear as you got close according to how you looked and felt?0 -

My goal has always been 140. I was that weight in my mid-20's and i liked how I looked at that weight. When I got there, I started eating more to maintain there. Recently I've been exercising more and my body has dropped 5 more. I didn't really try to lose it, but I like being under 140 with a cushion. I have thought about losing 5 more...0 -
