  1. Good morning everybody! Down 1 pound this week but even better--lost 2 inches on the back side. Joined a gym and hired a trainer this week. The couple of times in my life that I joined a gym (once was an all-women's facility) and the other during my 30's, it always felt awkward & made me self-conscious. I have to say that age makes it easier to tolerate--now I know what I need to do and am doing it for me. Have a great week!

    AWESOME!

    Down 4 lbs this week! Yes!

    WOW! WHOO HOO!

    I was 205 & change last week. This week 203 on the nose. I ate very low carb and that seems to be what works for me. I have a doc appt on monday & hope to be finally cleared to go back to the pool.

    WAY TO GO!

    AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

    Ok, I didn't report last week because I couldn't report a loss. Well, guess what, I still can't.

    I really need to go home & pick up my bicycle.

    199----hoping for a loss next week.

    Keep keeping ON! You GOT THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I was 186.7 *last* week, and weighed in at 184.3 *this morning*! So that's a loss of 2.4 pounds THIS WEEK! Yay! :) 13 pounds until I'm at 100 lost, and 15 until I'm at my goal weight! :)

    Great job :)

    HAVE A FABULOUS, BLESSED WEEK Y'ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


  2. Hi Y'all!

    Just checking in! Boy how things have changed since starting this post back in July of 2010 (1 month prior to sleeve). All my weight loss dreams have come true and THEN some

    :)

    I am at 27 months post sleeve surgery, and 18 months at goal (maintenance)...My last weigh in, last week I was 147.1...lowest weight 144, goal 150.

    I will be 45 years old this month and I am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO thankful to God for my sleevie! I can't believe I'm still wearing the same clothes since May 2011 (when I hit goal)...Sleevie is one of the best gifts ever!

    Best wishes and much love to all my fabulous 40's family! WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!


  3. Lost 1 lb and I'm happy lol

    I value every pound lost now. This is a new feeling for me because before surgery losing a lb meant nothing to me. Now I realize how important each pound is and they add up!!! Yay

    Keep up the great work friends <3

    OK there needs to be a LOVE BUTTON for this :)...Great job! Great attitude!!!!!!!! Love it!


  4. I didn't weigh in last week because we were on vacation in VEGAS!! :)

    So two weeks ago (Oct. 21st) I was 191.4 pounds.

    This morning (Nov. 3rd - also my 7 month surgery anniversary) I am 186.7 pounds!

    That is 4.7 pounds lost in 2 weeks!! :)

    Awesome!!!!

    The weight didn't change this week, which is perfectly fine. I am staying the course and will "weight" till next week! Have a good one!

    Great attitude!!!!!!!!! You are doing GREAT!!!!!!! see ya next week!!!!!!!!!


  5. Awesome job! Can I ask what kind of watch u have and where I can get one for myself?

    Thank you!!! It's a heart rate monitor Mio Drive Plus (unisex), but they come in many different styles :). It calculates according to age, gender, weight..I bought it at Best Buy on clearance for $40.

    I hear Polar (brand) is really good as well, and comes in pink, I think that will be my next purchase :)


  6. I attended a PARTY IN PINK Zumbathon today (SOOOOOOOO FUN!!!!) and burnt 1,625 calories in one shot (approx 2 hours)!!! My goal was to burn 1,000 at one shot and I would get close burning 866 (approx 1 hour) at a regular zumba class. I AM SOOOO THRILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And am SO THANKFUL! I could have NEVER done this before sleevie!!!!!!!!!!

    Here's a picture of my beautiful sleeve sister Michelle (aka creative teach) and a group of other gals from my Tuesday night class along with my favorite instructor :) and a picture of calories BURNT WHOO HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Have a great weekend y'all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  7. OK my peeps I have to move my weight gained from 1-5 to now 5-10 but it's ALLLLLL GOOD :)...Lowest weight is 144 and currently 148-152, which varies 2 lbs under goal or 2 lbs over goal, just depends on Water weight, etc. I'm sure if I ate 100% what I'm supposed to eat, and drink the right amount of Water, etc. I would drop, as a matter of fact I know I would, not to mention all this loose skin BLAH...when I think about when I weighed 234 for nearly a decade :( I CAN'T COMPLAIN!!!!!! I AM SOOOO HAPPY! I have been at goal since May 2011 and I WOULD HAVE NEVER EVER EVER EVER been able to do this EVER in my life before my sleevie! And at 44 years old (going on 45 next month) to boot!!! Can I get an AMEN???? LOL!

    I'm 26 months out now and work out AT LEAST 3 times a week now (1 hour sessions). And I DON'T DIET AT ALL! AT ALL! That IN ITSELF is a MIRACLE! I still eat pretty healthy for the most part, and still take my multi Vitamin every day. I'm no longer addicted to the scale. And I'm still wearing a size 6 :)

    My problem is STILL trying to get in the right amount of daily water ugh...I really need to up that. But other than that LIFE is GREAT! I am SO thankful for my sleevie!

    Anyhoo, will update again in December :) Best wishes until then!!!
