Week 9 Update

Not much to report.  I had my band filled last week, it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.  I still feel hungry after most "meals".  I'm still not really losing weight.  I think what little difference in weight between this week and last is due to sheer loss of sweat!  I have been working my tail off cleaning and moving things around the apartment.  

So on to the update.

Current weight: 114.9 kg (253.3 lb)

Total weight loss: 10.5 kg (23.15 lb)

So I guess it's not too bad for 9 weeks.  But I do feel like I went through that surgery and 6 weeks of hell just to lose like 10 kg.  Which doesn't make me a happy camper.

I guess on the plus side, the doc last week said my goal should be to weigh about 85 kg (187 lb).  So I'm only 30 kg away from that goal.  She says that will give me a BMI of 30.  I personally think my BMI should be around 24.  So I'm probably going to lean more towards a final weight of 65-70 kg.  

Originally my goal was 58 kg (128 lbs).  But the doc said I'll likely never get to that weight and if I did I would probably look rather sickly.  So I'm going to go with like 67 as the final goal.  

My first goal is to be in a size 46 (14 in the US) by Christmas.  Which will hopefully mean somewhere around 90 kg.  

So we shall see how the next few months unfold!
