Well that's awesome! Congrats!

I think slow is great! It seems more like a permanent life change instead of a temporary fix - keep it up and I think you look amazing!

Checking in at 274 - down 5 lbs! Which is crazy considering I was on bed rest for most of it with no zumba! On the 6th I hurt my back, luckily I'm better now and can get back on track! Off to join the July challenge!

How heartbreaking! I am sorry to hear, hopefully this isn't too much of a future issue after you get back to eating solids. Bless her heart!

I'm 5'5 and my goal is 170, I love a full figure and plushiness, I just want to be at a more comfortable and functioning point. It really depends, to me, on what your ideas are and goals were outside of a number - size, being comfortable, physical abilities, dressing your body, etc.

Anytime I try to watch what I'm eating it seems like everyone wants to invite me out to eat. It's killer!
And tv commercials about food too. Bah!

I believe you have to maintain a specific weight for up to 2 years before your body will recognize it as it's new "survivial weight" - which means until then your body is fighting to get back up to size because it truly believes you are killing it.
Be consistant! And take pride in that awesome amount you've managed to lose :]

I'm curious how you've been handeling it? I'm wanting to ask my doctor to put in some Fluid during the surgery.

I'm curious - in the past when you were trying to keep the weight off - what kind of support did you have?
Support is such a huge part of keeping it off, making sure your friends are aware of the support you need, and start now with finding foods of small portions that will keep you satisfied. (I've become a tuna freak this month haha). I've also found that the drinking rule helps SOOO Much! And I'm still pre-op. Do not drink beverages for 30 to 45 minutes before or after meals. - such a good rule! It was a difficult one though, I really love to wash my food down, but then I'm insanely hungry hours later. Now I'm able to feel satisfied longer.
I also joined tumblr and made a blog about my fitness and health and I reblog and follow others who are on the same path I am, that way even visually I'm inspired by healthy foods, etc.
Set yourself up for success lady! ;]
