Guest guest Posted December 17, 2003 Report Share Posted December 17, 2003 Wolfie, as far as I'm concerned the weight you lost prior to surgery was extremely hard to lose. A friend lost 40# prior to surgery, and when someone asks how much she lost, she'll say 29# or whatever it is at the time. I think she should say 69# and be proud of the hard work she's done. I lost a grueling 7# before surgery, so I had 4#'s, #1 being the starting weight, #2 the weight at time of surgery, #3 current weight, #4 goal weight, but some didn't understand, so I just went to the 3#'s. Of course if my friend was on here and it showed 69# lost in one month, people would really wonder, huh?!

I thought of this same thing, and was glad you did it this way. I'm going to change mine too. It will keep confusion down. I don't want to be misleading, but weight off is weight off, and be proud of it! If I figured right you're down 81# total. That is soooooo great! This a.m. I celebrated 30# off in 1 month. My husband gave me a great big hug. Life is good! Joan You figured right girl,lol. And you have done exceptional my goodness! I think your right we should list all weight lost. Eighty one is 11 pounds better than 70 for sure. God Bless Joan and keep up the great work!
