Now that you are at goal, share your totals and lets celebrate!!

What was your highest weight? BMI? Measurments? And what are you at today? Do you feel like you could lose more?

*Pretends to be at goal and answers*

Well thank you for asking Funny. I AM AT GOAL, WHOOOOOO!

I started at my highest of 240lbs and I am at 130lbs. My BMI is something like 24. My measurements are 33, 28, 34. I could lose another 5lbs but life's grand.

*not at goal YET*

Well its on my ticker, highest weight was that recorded by my doc at 113kg (a tad under 250lb), at 5ft 10, that made my BMI around 36.

Now I'm 86kg, have a BMI of 27.

Of course I feel and look so much better than I did but I AM still definitely overweight, there's plenty more I could lose. I have plenty of inches to pinch. But I dont stand out from a crowd at all.

My adult weight that I always gravitated to and maintained easily was 78kg. So I'm not far from there, but the times I got myself down to 72kg and even once or twice 70kg, I looked and felt awesome.

As it is, I can now shop in regular stores, but I'm in their XL's and size 16's - which I think is a US 14. I'd love to be in the 12-14 range.

But I'm in perfect health now, blood chemistry all perfect, blood pressure 110/70, fit and healthy, so if I never lost anouther pound I could live with that quite happily.

I'm with you on that Jachut, I'm still wayy overweight but I feel much better.

I have been at goal for about 2 months now.

My highest weight was 135kg / 297lbs, my waist measured 145cm / 57 inches.

Now I weigh 59.5kg / 130lbs. My waist measures 68cm / 26 inches (bust 96cm / 38 inches, hip 89cm / 35 inches)

I am not trying to lose, but I have a feeling as my post op swelling goes down, I will lose a little more. I think my waist will go down an inch or so too.

Overall I am pretty pleased.

At least 10 more lbs to go for me...If I can get to 160 I may try to get to 155. I will see if and when i get there.

Look whose talking :) You were 241, about my weight. You are 166lbs with 6lbs to go. You have done very well yourself.

[Iulizbug]

Aww thanks Telly...I still can't believe how fast this journey went. I can't wait till I can get a little bit of saline added on Monday to hopefully take me to goal. I do wish I could exercise as much as you though--I know that it would help me lose faster. I do 30 min 5 or 6 times a week but I am always so pooped after that its hard to do anymore.
