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.

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 few

Pho is my best friend right now! Clear liquids are boring but on a brighter note I am down 2 more lbs yay!

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!

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...

Officially entering the 160s was the best early Christmas present I could ever receive. When my hubby asked me what I wanted for Christmas this year I truly couldnt think of anything. My sleeve is my greatest gift! ...maybe just a shopping spree to clothe this improved bod of mine

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

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!
-
PMS...please stop messing with the results from my exercise! Even when I know you are effecting the scale it still makes me nervous
-
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
-
4 weeks out today! 20 lbs and 23.5 inches lost! I think my sleeve is my new best friend!!!
-
I love how as you get smaller and smaller, you can see almost every pound you lose. Its very motivational
Have I mentioned how much I love my sleeve today? lol -
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!!

The first 6 months the sleeve did all the work...now its just my assistant and I am working it
