    jenngetsthin got a reaction from Cheeseburgh in Summer 2018 Surgery Buddies: 1 Year Check In   
    I'm doing well. I'm now down 91 pounds (72.3 since surgery). I feel much healthier and happier. The weight loss has slowed significantly but I'm ok with that. I have about 45 pounds to reach my personal goal. Some recent progress pics (current pics from my recent vacay to Dominican Republic).

    Checking in. I was sleeved 8/16. I've been doing great. Had a slow loss in Dec (my own fault). I've already lost more in January than in December and only half way through the month! I'm down 69.2 from HW and 50.5 from SW. I've lost 44 inches too. Gone from a size 24 pants to a 16 or 18, a size 3X or 22/24 top to XL or 14/16, and a 44C bra to a 38/40 C/D. I've also been doing Zumba, which I love. I want to try kickboxing too. I'm super happy with my progress. I attached my most recent progress pic.

    I eat 4-5 small meals/snacks per day. My surgeon is fine with it. Otherwise I can't get all my Protein in (and I don't do shakes anymore). My typical Snacks are cheese or Jerky, sometimes Pork rinds or nuts.

    I've been in the 240s since December 14th! I'm almost out (need to lose 0.7) so hopefully soon. I definitely had a slow go of it from Thanksgiving to New Years and it has picked up a bit. It's ok, I'm not in a hurry and I know I'll get there. I haven't been in the 230s for 10 years and even then it was a very brief stay. I plan to whiz right past and get into the 220s.

    That's awesome! I'M proud of you, keep working! I'm down 105 pounds as of monday, 95 since surgery. Down from a 28 to a 20/22, sometimes an 18. I work out 6x a week, weight train 3x. Working on seeing the chance instead of having body dysmorphia. I'll get there!

    Honestly, it's not so bad. In the beginning, you won't want that stuff anyways. And after awhile, you can incorporate some of the stuff back in but in a healthier way. I eat burgers. I get them lettuce wrapped. I usually eat half and it satisfies me. I eat salami and cheese all the time. I eat an occasional slice of pizza. For me, it's all about moderation and Portion Control. I choose not to think of it as giving stuff up, it's just a new way of eating. I don't really miss Pasta or soda like I thought I would. I can still eat a small amount of bread (half a bagel or one slice of toast).
    Whatever you decide, I wish you luck.
