Thanks for the kind words hon. I have definitely slowed down. Same 5 pound range since Jan. But I've been carbing it up so I know why. Trying not to beat myself up and focus on my accomplishments but I struggle with that. Just so close to goal that I want to be there now! Lol

Thanks, hon! I'm so ridiculously happy lately...I was in size 22 jeans before surgery, and now my 16s are getting too big!! This whole process is just so amazing...fill me in on how things are going for you!! Are you feeling happy w your progress to date?

That's really amazing, Deb! So happy that you're having great success too! I love the happy stories that everyone has to share, and the fact that so many of us are changing our lives for the better! Keep plugging away and we'll be there soon!

This is my first time with a major surgery! I had my wisdom teeth out, but for some reason, that one didn't make me nervous at all! I don't have any kids, and so I really haven't experienced a major medical change ever. So....I'm nervous. I am really excited because I haven't been struggling with the idea of giving up my old life too much. Does that make sense? I'm really ready to move on to a healthy me, even if that means lots of hard work. I've started an exercise program, and it kicks my butt, but I love doing it. Do you ever freak out that maybe this isn't going to work? That in a few years you'll be back where you are now? I really feel different this time, but I have self-doubt sometimes. I couldn't handle having people know that I had surgery and even that didn't work! Thoughts? Well, I will keep you posted on how the liquid diet this week goes...it's protein shakes all week for me! I'm sure I'll get quite sick of them, but I'm excited to start losing this weight!

ugh...stalling...i know that this happens, but it's more frustrating the last week or so than normal...i just want to be in the 170s...

Well, 20 pounds to goal....it's pretty cool how fast this has gone! I just don't know what to think about how long it will take to get the rest of the way...hopefully by Sept! My sis asked me to be her maid of honor!!

Well, first of all - I'm holding my breath for you!! Can't wait until you're at your goal!! Sooo close! :) As for me, I'm maintaining still...on the lower end of my plateau, so that's a good thing, and just joined an 8 week fitness challenge that starts on Monday, and I'm really thinking that some higher energy working out is what my body needs right now. So hopefully I can kick it into losing

What do you guys think is a reasonable amount of time to expect until I hit goal?? I want to be realistic about it and set a goal that I can accomplish...I have 21 pounds to go...

Whew...stall FINALLY broken...it has been months since the scale has moved. I'm just so happy that I could dance! Lol...

You're in the 50's!! Yeah! I'm jealous! Have a great day!
