    The last time I was under 300 was July of 2008 I was 26. I lost 35 lbs during my pregnancy with my son. About a week after I gave birth I was at 289. Gained it all back very quickly plus 10 pounds.

    The last time I was under 300 was in 1998 when I got married. I weighed 275 and quickly became pregnant with my son. I cannot wait to see 299 on the scales!!

    For me it was in 2001, I had gotten up to 364. I am now under 300 which happened a few weeks ago. I am almost at high school weight which was around 260. I am working hard to get there.

    For me it was last 2009/early 2010. After we brought our son home from China. He was special needs, needed surgery, Mommy turned to food for comfort.

    Had my one week post op appt today and I weighed in at 299.4. Praying this is the last time I will EVER have to contend with the 300's.

    The last time I saw under 300 was in 2007. I weighed 267 before I got pregnant with my son in November 2007. Right before I gto pregnant with him, I had just lost 60lbs from about 330. And boy, did I think that I was small at 267!!! LOL!! I can't wait to get my sleeve and see how far I can go this time!!! At least now, I won't have to worry about gaining it all back so quickly....

    It's been like 4 years since I've been under 300. I've dipped into the 299 298 zone a couple of times but that didn't last more than a week as I quickly gave up on whatever diet I was on.

    It has been about 8 years for me. Last summer I did get a little under 300 but quickly gained it back and then some. Looking forward to getting to see the scale start with a 1 not a 2 or a 3. Crossing my fingers

    Well it was 2005 but I am now two months out and the other day I weighed 300.0 exactly. I haven't weighed since but I will be taking a pic when I do. That's 60 lbs in two months.

    well hopefully this will cheer you all up. I am 7 months post-op, had the gastric sleeve done in August of 2013. I weighed in at over 300 pounds and haven't seen that number for at least 5 months. It is possible, and after surgery you will be shooting for 200 like I am. I have 27 pounds left to go and will see the number 200 for the first time in over 15 years. Keep your heads up and keep losing pounds!!!! you can do it..
