202 this week. I had a reall good week. I am 4lbs away from Halloween goal.

I do not look forward to or enjoy food any longer. What I do enjoy is participating in physical activities that I could not do 4 months ago. Oh and I enjoy shopping. Lol. I also am on an eating schedule to remind myself to eat. My world doesn't revolve around food anymore. I'm enjoying this new life a lot

A lot of my family is there. And we have a family camp in Stephensville that I go spend weekends at sometimes. Was last there for Shrimp and Petroleum festival over Labor Day weekend.

I don't live in Morgan City anymore but I'm from there.

Surgery date: 06/12 Day of surgery: 276 Weight today : 204

I tried to download this from Amazon, said it wasn't available for customers from US.

I'm not spending any time with any of my friends at all lately. It's actually not a conscious choice. My main reason for being healthy is to enjoy life with my 5 year old son, and that's what I've been doing.

Good luck tomorrow!!!

From 209 to 207 this week

You and your wife look fabulous!

Last night while I was getting a bath, me and husband were talking. I was telling him how once I reach goal, and maintain for awhile ( which is quite a ways away as I still have 72lbs to loose to get to goal) I want a boob job and a tummy tuck. Out of no where my husband starts ranting about how he doesn't want me to have those surgeries because of the "risk". I was like, where was that concern while I was getting my stomach cut up like Frankenstein ? He said that was a medical necessity for me, then went on to guilt trip me about how would he explain to Cole, my 5 year old, if something happen to me while having plastic surgery? And that he's happy with me the way I am. I told him its not about him, it's about how I feel about myself, and I don't want boobs hanging down to my belly button or flabby belly if I make it to goal and if I maintain. After much heated discussion, because since my surgery I'm a total hot head , he admitted its his own insecurities that doesn't want mr having plastics. Personally I don't get it, I love my husband, he had loved me at almost 300lbs. I feel I'm going to love him no matter what happens. This is something I want, it's hard to think about going against something he wants because he gives me everything I want, and is sooo good to me. This whole incident is totally out of character for him. I'm always saying I think my sleeve is making me crazy, cause of my out there mood swings, looks like its rubbing off on him.

So awesome!!!!

Thought I'd revive this thread. So far, I'm down 67lbs since surgery on 06/12. However I'm in a stall. Been fluctuating between 210 and 209 for two weeks. So very frustrating

I cook one recipe a week from the Emily Bites website. I hold out what will be a weeks worth of food for me, and freeze the rest. Freezing extras has come in handy when I don't feel like cooking.

I took out a loan with my credit union. I'll be paying it back for the next 4 years

I just got over something like that. I thought it was a stomach virus but test revealed it was intestinal parasite. I had to go to hospital to get fluids from dehydration. Take care of yourself.

OTR you look great!

Holding steady at 210. Doesn't surprise me, I was able start eating again after having an intestinal parasite. I was miserable!!!

Yes!!! So true!!
