1 weeks results of being back on track...4 lbs down!! Who knew tracking on MFP, eating low carb & high protein, walking 3-5 miles a day, and getting in all my water would actually work! I realized I let the sleeve do all the work for me the first 6 months and to continue losing after 6 months I have to work my sleeve!

10 lbs from normal BMI!!! That number seems sooo little! Yippee! My hubby is having VSG in MX in 6 days, and I just can't wait for him to experience all that the sleeve has given to me!!! tome

40 lbs down, 3 months out, 2 months PREGO! I went thru hell to get the Mirena IUD 2 years ago (after a bad miscarriage with a regular IUD) even though my insurance didnt cover it b/c it had a lower rate of pregnancy than having your tubes tied...but who's the most fertile person on the planet...THIS GIRL. Appt w/ the OB next week for an U/S to find out if its a viable pregnancy. If it is... we will go with it. If its not...the hubby is getting snipped!

8 months out today and the scale gave me a little present this morning -1.5 lbs! Only 17 lbs to normal BMI!!

A lot of my choices in food and some of the patterns I have picked up over the holidays need to be nipped in the bud before they become permanent...time for a cleanse to reset

About to be a sleeved couple
Hubby's surgery is tomorrow! Switched from Mi Doctor to Florence last min because of broken laproscopic equipment but Dr. kelly was nice enough not to charge us the extra $500. He's so awesome. -
Breaking the 163 lb mark was a big deal because it cleared 3 goals all at once! #1 I am no longer considered obese #2 Its officially the lowest I've been in 10 years #3 I offically weigh less than my driver's license weight ( YES... I lied by THAT much!)

Bye bye 190's... it was not nice knowing you! Hello 180's...it's been awhile since we've seen each other!!
-
Dear scale, I've been getting my workout on and eating perfectly...please be under 156 in the morning...it would be the best Easter present. Don't make me beg!
-
Had a lot of time and mind consuming things come up and distract me from my goal over the last 7 months. My diet and weight loss fell to the back burner and the burner wasn't even on! My weight is currently 163 lbs yikes! Time to refocus and recommit! I'm ready!
-
Yes! Same here except My situation is some what diff. Had the sleeve done in Oct 2012 & thought with the down sizing & grehlin removal,losing weight would be effortless. My surgery was done in Costa Rica.
So as far as taking it seriously enuf & following a structured program, I didn't.Less amounts of food intake @ one setting but I grazed all day & into the night on one kind of food & when it became boring,on to the next choice.No exercise & very small amt...

Hi I am in a similar situation ive been out a little over 8 months I feel as if I never had the surgery done. I can eat everything!!! yes the first 50 lbs was on them but thats because your stomach is healing but I feel after it heals well, your on your own. I now joined a class twice a week and it seems to be working ok scale has started coming down again but I feel at this point of the game your basically on your own. ultimately we decide our outcomes.

Heck yeah!! 2 week vacation including a 1 week cruise and I STILL lost weight! All hail the miracle sleeve!
-
Home safe and sleeved! Honey is doing so well! Just walked a mile no problem. Happy to see what life brings as a sleeved couple!!

I couldn't believe my eyes when I stepped on the scale this morning and saw 179 (had to weigh myself 4 times)!! I haven't been in the 170s in 5 years! Now Im dying for my hubby to wake the heck up so i can share this awesomeness...
-
I don't know what the heck is going on but the weight is falling off this week like it did in the beginning! ! I've gone from 152-145 lbs...7 lbs in 1 week!! The only thing I have changed this week is my water intake (went from 48 oz a day to 64/72 oz... Can that be so powerful? I'm estatic!!
