    I must admit I'm really proud of my loss so far as I cannot exercise owing to progressive multiple sclerosis. Wish I could but my body won't let me. At least my knees and back aren't as painful anymore :-)

    Congrats to you guys!
    I had my sleeve 11/6 and am down 78 from highest and 70 from surgery. I have been working out averaging 9k steps on my fit bit. Before sleeve I had no energy and was a couch potato. I love being able to mow my lawn, go to the gym. I would have never in my life thought that I would enjoy the feeling of exercise. Granted, I do t like it during but the feeling of accomplishment is amazing after!
    If you guys have my fitness pal or fit bit, feel free to friend me

    Eye candy is on it's way. Right now it's still sort of an eye astigmatism. LOL. I'm one month out and have lost 23 pounds so far. I expect to reach my goal weight in two to three months from now. I've got some front row tickets for the show that will go to the first lady that will post an eye candy pic for me.

    What a miracle, still! I'm still surprised when I see myself in the mirror. I dropped from pushing into a size 24 to a 12 or 14. After decades of dieting and yoyoing, it's just wonderful to be the same weight and size month after month.
    I eat just about anything I want without fear. There are some things I've chosen not to eat, bread and Pasta, unless they're fabulous, famous, or unavoidable. But because they're not forbidden, I don't feel deprived. I do eat chips and Cookies but only buy really good individual cookies or individual sized chip bags. There's no way I'm going to have a supply of either in my house. I'm good but not superwoman!
    Exercise has become a necessity for me, which is strange because it was never appealing to me before. Last year I decided that if I was truly going to succeed at keeping my wonderful new body, I had to do something more than just walking. I also, at the age of 65, wanted to be sure that my balance and core strength was enough to better take care of my husband who has MS. I signed up for a personal trainer to get me started. I do weights, floor exercises and Water aerobics. I tried yoga, but too much downward facing dog. Being retired helps me commit to the exercise because I have no excuses for not working out.
