  1. I just wanted to add to this post, over the last 3 days the comments have gotten worst!!! I am good, I feel great and of course I am continuously brushing off my shoulders but the worst comment was that" because I have lost my Butt, I am no longer BLACK!!!!!!" can you believe that? Of course I told her that I didn't know that having a AZZ defined race and I moved on!!!! I hae been dumping so called friends left and right. Oh and family members telling me to turn it off, that it's enough... LOL
  2. No stalls and yes I exercise 2-3 times a week. My biggest thing is that my bed was another appendge to me. Now I'm constantly moving and on the go.... Are you excersing and how many calories and Protein do you get in on a daily basis?
  3. Zinna, Keep working that tool Girl! What is your calorie count up to now? I try not to do much snaking although during the monthly I have cravings and I do reach for chocolate but only a little. When I do feel hungry I reach for yogurt, I have a hard time with food but it has gotten much better. I still do shakes but one of day and maybe 4-5 times a week. I try to get what I need from dense proteins, fish, chicken and steak.
  4. Hi, Have you tried Biotin? I had hairloss for before surgery, I now this sounds crazy but I am just now getting use to it. I am using biotin and I have noticed less hair when I wash my hair. Do you track your food and Protein? What does your daily food intack consist of?
  5. You know everyone is different, lol. It sounds like your doing good. Just keep trying to move. Have you tried to change up your routine a little so your body can get out of the norm and you can break that stall? Sent from my iPad using VST

  7. Hi everyone, How are things going with you? I was sleeved 7/16. My highest weight was 273.6... I am 177.5. I am much more happier now. Off all my meds, cpap, and pain management. I am doing something new and that is finally living my life for me to the fullest. I hope that you all are doing well!
  8. It is hard right now for me to wrap my head around the fact that I will be 160 pounds when I lose the next 24 pds. This is my doctors goal. I never had a weight goal I had a get healthly goal, not die the next day goal. I am there I met that goal 2 months into the surgery. I am 4 months out now and 87 pounds lighter. I am wearing sizes that I have not worn since jounior high school. I am getting so many compliments but at the same time, I have had to let a lot of people go in order to succeed down my new path. Bittersweet yes but I am on a self awarness journey in which I am now trying to embrace the new me. Yes a process it is, but well worth it. I would not have said this 3 months ago. I am so happy and blessed right now.
  9. Hang in there...... You will do it...... Let your Tool Work for YOU! 316 to 223 is Awesome!!!!!
  10. Congrats......YOur Secret is Safe with ME!!!!!!
  11. Hey Thanks Mary Lynn.....it has been hard but...I'm not going to lie and it has been times that I have cursed myself on the reasons of why I did it but.....you can do it Girl.... You Will be successful too! Sent from my iPad using VST
  12. My surgery was July 16th.....I am doing well now... it was helluva rocky in the beginning but I'm am down 81 lbs from 273.6. I'm So happy although yes there are ups and downs.....I Feel Alive!!! Sent from my DROID RAZR using VST
  13. So they are coming out of the woodwork...... I have been to two events over the last 2 weekends and everyone is now calling me and texting me to either see what I have done or am I sick. My best friend for whom I didn't tell, told me not to lose anymore weight because I was looking sick. Have you seen my last pic. I have been sick must of my life.. I was sick and dying earlier this year bedridden d/t my heart and now everyone wants to come out and be oh so concerned about me. I chose not to tell anyone because everyone I told was against it... now that I have lost over 80 lbs they want to show their heads. I am so happy now, I love the compliments but for the ones, my so called friends and family that didn't care about me then...why do you care now... Only a hand full of people did I tell about my surgery and I am happy about that decision. It is no ones business and it will stay that way. Thanks for letting me vent. p.s I purchased a dress 2 weeks ago for my son's wedding and had to to take it back Sat morning because it was falling off of me... I am now in a size 12 and loving every minute of it.
