I am 335 (5'11" tall) today and my goal from my surgeon is 159. Has anyone here lost that much weight? Care to share your experience or expertise?....what was the progression or time line of your loss like?

Thank you for your input. I am still pre op, but looking at surgery in about 2 months if all goes well.

See ticker below- that's basically it.  This thing is totally doable- but you have to want it more than anything- committment and compliance, as Frisco says.  Iv'e been in maintenance since August and have never been able to keep it off for a nano-second--'till now---the hope of WLS.  Hope is here for me.  Good luck.  Bonnie

I too have been successful, and lowered my goal, so I have the 3-4 to go! It's all possible just follow the plan. Good Luck!
