OMG have had a bit of wow moment myself

[tesmaralda]

Over the last couple of weeks I have been a bit disappointed with my weight losses, as they had dropped to 1lb or 2lb a week.I know it has to slow down and I have to give my body chance to catch up with itself, and I have done brilliantly since May with big weight losses.

I have made a big effort to drink more, have had my time of the month and am eating more fruit and veg and this week I have lost 5lb. Was feeling good about this and have come home and have been updating some targets and have a weight loss record sheet that I update every week (or when I remember). I have realised today just how well I am doing (a bit similar to a few weeks ago when I actually saw my weightloss for myself in the mirror), and this is why

1) My doubting best friend and her husband finally caught up after nearly 3 monthsand this is only the 2nd time they have seen me post op (the 1st time being a week or 2 after being home at a wedding) they were amazed at the difference in me and barely recognised me.

2) Have fallen below 17 stone and it has been nearly 4 years since I was in the 16 stone weight bracket

3) Have been down graded from a class III obese person to a class II obese person

4) I have lost over 25% of my starting weight.

5) I have lost 47.56% of my weight to lose only another 4lb to go and I will have lost 50% of my weight loss goal and half way to my target weight of 10 and half stone.

I never thought some of the things would be achievable in such a short space of time, its only been 16 and half weeks since my surgery and 17and half weeks since I started my pre op diet x x x

hi terri, firstly well done on your weight loss! i had my surgery the same day as you and have lost 71 lb which (before your 5lb loss this week) is really similar to your loss also our start weights were'nt far off eachother, im really pleased too and hopefully this week i'll lose at least 2lb and join you in being under 17!!!!
