I wanted to lose 60lbs by June 10th my two month surgiversary on June 10th. Well I was 3 lbs short but today I made it to 60 lbs lost!!!! Couple days past but still made it in just a couple extra days!!! Woot!

Congrats! Good for you keep the hard work going!

It really is a great feeling, just never experienced it. :-) here to being seen as a piece of meat.

I am going to Montreal Thursday for a concert and need some clothes that fit so I headed to goodwill. :-) I fit a 38 pants!!' that's down from a 48, 7 weeks ago and from a 54 at my highest. And there's more I am wearing a plain ol xl shirt! Down from 3 xl's an a few 4xl's. Woot!

Well, I said that I was going to do a happy dance when and if this happened. I am sitting in Starbucks right now, near two attractive, seemingly single women. I noticed them when I came in, I've been here for like 10 min. Well, one of them just looked my direction, look back at her friend and then her head snapped back to me and she checked me out!! *huge grin* I don't think I have ever had anyone do a double take for any reason other than my enormity. Woot! I'm pumped!!!

Welcome to the losers bench! You sound like your doing great!

Woot! I can't wait till I weigh less than your husband also. :-)

Welcome sarah: You will find here that the need to explain and defend your action or reasons for surgery are not needed. We are all on this journey and for the first time like many of us u may find here a group of people who really really get it! Good job so far. And GodSpeed on this journey

Kemo, I haven't notice any increase in loss with exercise. But it is steady. Candace. :-) actually I have not updated my ticker I am 49lbs from goal and it still feel like it can't really happen. :-)

Today I am at 219 that's 54 lbs since may 10th! So my scale victory is I am officially at my lowest adult weight I was 220 at 17. So I am in completely new territory! I bought some jeans a month ago that are a 40. I couldn't web button them. I can wear them! That is 14 in smaller than at my highest weight of 311!!!! I am only albs from my mini goal of 60lbs in 2 months before rhe U2 concert on the 9th of July and think I am going to make it! Lastly yestarday a friend told me I needed to go home and changed my "pantaloons". Lol.

Congrats!!! Just stay focused, when u start eating make good choices. I'm 50 days out and down 54 lbs this morn. I had two weeks in Tw middle where I lost almost nothing when I starte eatin. But I didn't freak just stuck tints plan and kept My body moving everyday. It will Come off!

Congrats. Get ready for the ride of your life!

Thx again everyone. Yes I feel sooo amazing. My energy is beginning to level out. I make it though The work day without getting tired out now. And my workdays are not light. I am playing racquetball almost every morning. I am down 2 lbs today bringing me to 52 lost and 51 to go! Less to lose than I have already lost!!!!!! Wow I can't believe it!!!!

How about Well, you can kiss my A now before its to small for you to find!

i am finally able to get the pics up the pics are between 40-50lbs lost

Well, I pretty much eat protein. Not a lot of carbs but I do have some carbs. I seem to lose 3-5 lbs then stall and go back up and down for 3-4 days and then lose again then back up and down. Each time after a couple days I go lower on the downward slope.

Congrats bro. I soo get it. I'm loving booths now too!

Thx everyone. :-) it is surreal. I am about 3 lbs from my lowest adult weight!!!! I can't wait to see the scale below 220!!! @heatherr I don't know anyone in Montreal, I wanted to do something fun so I bought tickets to see the band U2 in concert there on July 9th. I decided to just fly somewhere to see a concert, then picked U2 and since I have never been to Montreal figured why not? :-) l try to live an Epic life. One where when I lay my head on the pillow at night I smile. :-)

Congrats bro. What a great accomplishment!

Thx raine. I hope I make it. I am playing racquetball 5days a week now. So I hope that keeps it burning. :-)

My goal at surgery was to lose 40 lbs by July 9th when I am flying to Montreal to see U2. Well that's done. :-) so I changed it to 60. 10 more by the 9th and I make it. :-)

Lol thx Meg, Well at 50 lbs lighter at least there is no broken furniture, or displaced hips while doing said dance. Lol

Heck freaking yeah! I just amazed. 50 lbs in 38 days. *worlds dorkiest happy dance*. So in the last two days have have had 15 people ask about my weight loss. (people who don't know about surgery). I just say "I stopped eating" and actually lol. :-)

Absolutely fine. I haven't had any trouble with pain my incisions are pretty much healed. I don't notice them at all or any soreness in the muscle even after a long work day. I have been healing great. I just really wish I could get more protein in and fluids. Feels like I deal with and think about eating more now than before. Constantly tryin to get fluids in and protein. I was kinda worn on it yestarday and just decided I was not going to worry about it. So I didn't drink much or eat much at all. It was really nice to just have a mental break. Then last night I was really thirty so I got in about 40 oz liquid in like 3 hrs Today I am back at tracking and making it work. But I can see some day I will just need a mental break

Finally get to exercise! I'm not lifting yet. But I used to love raquetball. So I started back today. I played for 45 mins. Wool was I tired. Lol.
