  1. Ive been stuck for about 2mths now. Ive been fluctuating between 143 & 146lbs but Ive dropped from a size 7/8 to a perfect 5/6pants so I can't really complain. But hopefully the scalle will start to move again. Ive decided I want to get down to 130-135lbs Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using VST
  2. Does anyone take these? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using VST
  3. Yes I did mean "pannus" lol sorry but I am happy to say that I have lost those few lbs I gained and I'm now down to 143!! You guys are an awesome support system! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using VST
  4. I am now a little over 6mths out. ..I started off at 240lbs. Add of now I am 147lbs but I have gained 3lbs because I was down to 144lbs. I admit that I have gotten of track and have been eating out and eating sweets and also grazing. So I know that those 3lbs are all my fault. I think I got comfortable because I made it down to lower than my goal weight and felt like I cud eat these things now. I never wanted to have to count calories and diet for the rest of my life but I know in order to maintain I have to watch these things. I also have my family and friend in my ear saying I'm small enough and don't lose anymore weight and you need to stop now before you start looking sick. Now I'm 147lbs and still look fine and am still losing inches despite the gain (funny) because I can tell in my clothes. But I am unhappy now because I'm over my goal weight by 2lbs. Now I want to lose 8lbs to get down to 139lbs and I figure I'll stop and maintain better there. This is me February 17th [ATTACH]10192[/ATTACH] I know I should be happy with the weight I have lost but I want to be comfortable and maintain that weight. Ugh! !

  17. Hey everyone! Im so glad to say I have surpassed my goal of 150lbs and now am 147lbs. My surgery date was 8/24/12 im 28yrs old and I started out at 240lbs. However now im focused on getting this pannie removal but thinking that by the time I'm able to get it I won't need it! I barely have any skin hanging over now. When I'm dressed you can't even see it. Which is amazing so I can't complain! But I'm hoping that I'm able to get that flat stomach I wish for without the pannie removal lol Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using VST
