Oh and another one!!

Hey everyone! I feel like I've been away for awhile... But I wanted to post some updated before/during pics.
Just to catch up.....
My name is Misty. I had my VSG (sleeve) done June 2013. My highest weight was 245lbs. I've lost apporox 119 lbs (ignoring today's weight bc the past few days have been "cheat WEEKEND" LOL). For the most part, I eat very well (I've given up rice, bread, potatoes, Pasta, and a few other things I've deemed unworthy to be in my little tummy). I enjoy my gym time very much & consider myself somewhat of a "gym rat."
Tonight is my last cheat meal (today is my birthday!) -- which will consist of my first piece of pizza since my surgery and a piece of Godiva chocolate I purchased for the occasion.
Beginning tomorrow will be a strict ban on all things bad for me... Back to "normal" life, which I quite enjoy. I'm hoping to drop just a few more pounds in the next 6 months, then planning for plastics.
Hope everyone is doing well!!!

4 months in and 70 lbs down feeling great but weight loss has slowed down. And I'm going to start exercising. I'm only 19.

Little past my half way point. Down 66 LBS. 60LBS more to my goal weight.  

Able to roller skate now! No more sitting down at kids birthday party's for this dad!

Everyone is doing so amazing keep up the good work all of you

I love this tread....that is all.

I rarely get a lunch break, so my go to daytime Snacks are Protein Bars, mixed nuts, and Jerky. I also drink a 24-32oz smoothie with 30-40g Protein and 5-10g Fiber in between afternoon appointments. Dinner is whatever I'm in the mood for. Tonight I had a stuffed red pepper made with elk meat and zucchini. Last night it was 1/2 beef burrito (just the beef, Beans, tomatoes and cheese on the inside, not the tortilla) and 1/2 pork tamale. Tomorrow I'm going to a friends house and she is serving chicken Alfredo over Pasta and green beans with slivered almonds. (I'll have the chicken Alfredo and beans but will pass on the pasta and drink wine instead ???? ). Most nights, in addition to dinner, I usually have a couple snacks....apples and Peanut Butter, raw veggies dipped in cheese spread or ranch dressing, frozen pineapple chunks, V8 juice with olives and pickles, cottage cheese, guacamole with pita chips, Greek yogurt, etc.....As well as a big cup of Decaf tea at bedtime. I'm in maintenance, so I definitely eat more carbs and fat than I did when losing. Basically I enjoy everything in moderation....just eating like a normal person.
