Hey Everyone! I had my 9 month check up today...and I have met my goal!!! I literally shed a tear as I looked at the BMI chart and saw that I was in the "healthy" range! I went from a BMI of 36 to 23, size 16WP (women's petite) to a 4P, and from 208lbs to 125lbs in 9 months. Although I've had my up's and downs, I love my new body and life! I also know the journey isn't over...it's now a lifestyle. So keep striving, working, and reaching those goals everyone! Much love!

Ran my first 5K ever this weekend! Ran onstop 31:39 time. I was so happy that I shed a few tears at the finish line. Discipline, focus, determination, and my sleeve helped me to reach this goal of being a RUNNER!

14 Days And Getting Sick Of Soup!
Beyon Sleeve replied to madintx's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Soup can get boring. Have you tried different flavors? Can you tolerate cottage cheese, greek yogurt, protein shake made with water? Maybe a sugar free popcicle would help -
Couch to 5K is awesome! I'm running a non-stop 5K in 36min. It's amazing what accomplishments can come to life with motivation, self esteem, and of course the sleeve

16 Week Stall?
Beyon Sleeve replied to smoor43832@live.com's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Tighten up your diet and exercise more/differently. I'm on my 3rd stall and only 10lbs away from MY goal. My body is like, "I'm fine here", while my head says, "No you're not!". Dig deep and refocus. It may take a bit of time, but it will pass. Good Luck!!! -
No Regrets, But I Broke Down And Cried Today
Beyon Sleeve replied to june13sleever's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
We all have bad days. And everything you mentioned does suck! BUT, you have to look on the bright side. You are alive and healthier than before. So what, you have extra skin (as I do too) its the things we go through that make us stronger! Ok, so we are not going to be supermodels...but was that ever the goal? Embrace your beauty AND flaws, because we ALL got em'! -

I don't know about the stretching thing, some say yes, some say no. If you feel your portions are larger you may want to get back to basics with protein shakes and lots of water and low, low carbs and sugar. And of course portion control and don't snack late (Im still working on that one) that recently helped and it jump started my system and I'm back to losing again P.S. don't forget to move everyday! Exercise is like healthy food and air...you gotta have it to live right!!! Best of Luck! Never Give Up!

Best Thing I Have Ever Done
Beyon Sleeve replied to DebbieDeb's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
DebbieDeb you have made great progress so far! Don't give up! I know the mention of exercise can sound like a four letter word, but it is a piece of the weightloss puzzle. I started out slow with walking 20 mins a day 3 days a week. Now, after 6 months I'm running 4 days a week, but that was MY goal. Find YOUR goal and do it (literally write it down and put it on the fridge...I did!) You've got the ultimate tool to help you! Grab a buddy to walk with you. You CAN do this, girl! Stay strong, stay focused. -
So happy for you! Take before pics and keep us posted
