I was stuck at 160 for what seemed like forever' date=' and then just started drinking a ton of Water. I drink 20 oz. as soon as I wake up in the morning and then keep that going through the day. I've also been eating a ton of plain greek yogurt. I stir in different toppings to keep it interesting. So within the past couple of weeks I've dropped 4 more pounds, getting to 156. My personal goal is 140.[/quote']
Oh thanks , I'm going to start there and add more Water and Greek yogurt to my diet ... I am definitely not complaining ( when I think how far I've come ) but I will do anything to kick start my loss .... Hopefully it will work for me as well

Hiccups for me usually means I am full and can't take another bite ... Not sure if this happens to you after you eat
-
I understand perfectly ... I went from an 16/18 to a 10 bottom and from XXL to Med top and I do the same I look at the clothes like seriously this is sooo not going to fit and WALA it fits ... I can not believe I am on my way to a single digit bottom , who would've thought .... I still see the obese girl .... Hopefully one day our minds will catch up my friend

I also use my Fitness pal

That's awesome!!! Yeah I ate too much this morning' date=' I think that's why I had the chest pain. I just ate about an hour ago and listened to my body a little more, AND NO CHEST PAIN! AWESOME!!!
It's so good to hear that you're close to your goal! I'm still along ways from mine.[/quote']
Well my friend you're on your way ... Losing 60 already is awesome , keep on that path to success

I actually just had my first mushy food since the surgery. And it sucks!!!! I have this pain in my chest that comes and goes. But other than that everything is good! Lost almost 60lbs since I started my journey in January. So overall I'm happy!
How are things going for you?
Lol ... I remember that stage it did suck ... Be careful with the pain in your chest , don't just ignore it . That's a great loss , I'm a slow loser and so far I'm down 66 in 6 months hey ill take it ... things are even slower now going into my 7 month but I'm pretty positive that I will get to goal ( another 40 lbs ) ...

I took a week of vacation and didn't tell anyone at work anything ... I started months prior a high Protein diet with Protein Shakes ... And going to the gym 4 times a week so they think my weight loss is attributed to eating well and working out ( which in a way it is )
-
I can so relate , I am also 5 months out and I ameating sooo much now , it worries me .... I still have 44 to lose .... I have been trying to pull back on how much I am eating ... I will try lil Diva's bootcamp and see if I can kick start some loss again and definitely staying away from carbs
-
i just have a Protein Shake for breakfast every morning then maybe a cheese stick for a snack mid morning before lunch
-
I use Avon's Signature Silk Argan oil after a shower and use Eucerin as a moisturerizer ... The only things that helps .....
