Wow you have done great!!!
My personal goal is to hit 130. I weighed in today at 137 so just a little more. Then I guess the goal will be to try and maintain that weight.

You will be fine. It's natural to feel scared. Good luck to you!! I'm 8 months out and down 77 pounds and feel great!!! You will be so glad you did this.

So glad to hear everyone is doing great!!!!
Sue, I shopped for bras the other day and it was so exciting for once I was able to buy pretty undergarments!!!! No old lady over the shoulder boulder holders!!! LOL!!!
I have lost cup sizes and for the first time in my life I needed a push up bra??? Oh well, I'll take the good with the bad.
All of you have a blessed day!!!

It's too quiet here.... Lets get an update from everyone.
I'm doing ok. I'm down 103 pounds and that includes a little loss pre op. I've hit 138 pounds and can get into a size 4-6. I feel great. I'm still loosing my hair and nit sure how long this is going to last.
Now tell me what's happening with you all.

Ok. I'm eight months out and down a total of 77 pounds since surgery. 103 pounds to include preop loss. I currently weigh 138
I had to go bra shopping because the girls have shrank. Lol!!! Being over weight my entire life... I've always had big girls. 40DD.... Today I want shopping and had to get a 34 C cup. Oh and I also need to mention I had to get all push up bras!!! Never in my life have I needed that. It felt very strange. I guess on a positive note... I did get to shop for pretty girly stuff instead of the over the shoulder bolder holders. Lol!!!

This is it..... Drum roll please..... As of today I have lost 100 pounds!!!!!!
I need to put on my dancing shoes and celebrate!!!
I weighed in today at 141. I feel great!!! Thank you all for being on this journey with me.

Stalls..... Don't get frustrated!!! Apparently they are all normal. If you look back at all the recent post most people are experiencing them. At 7 months post op I guess it's slowing down for everyone.
What I've heard is when we hit a long standing stall we have to change up our routine. If your not exercising ..... Start doing something.
If you eat very low carbs..... Eat a little more for a few days then get back to dropping them.
If you eat 1000 calories or more.... Cut them back down for a few days.
Whatever you do..... Do something different!!!
Just don't give up!!! It took us a life time to get to obesity. 7 months is really such a short time in our journey and look how much better things are today than 7 months ago.

I know you felt great!!!!
Congrats!!!

Good morning beautiful friends!!! How is everyone doing???
Everyone sound in and give us an update please.
Today I lost pound. ????????????????????
I'm now at 145 ..... Day of surgery I was 215
Every time I look in the mirror I am just shocked at the person looking back at me. Today as I glared at the reflection if myself my thoughts were wow..... This used to be a morbid obese person. I never thought it possible to feel the way I do today.

Feeling great today!!!!
Day of surgery I was 215..... Today 145!!!!!
Thank God!!!!!

One day at a time. Don't stress. It took us half a life time to become obese so the success we have today at only 6 months is a heaven sent blessing!!!
We are changing in positive ways everyday!!!

I have to tell you guys...
Today while out shopping with my Husband we got separated getting things at SAMs club.
Well, my husband caught up to me a few isle over. I noticed he was smiling at me. I thought nothing of it and we finished up our shopping. When we got in the car he told me that he saw me walking in the store and smiled because I LOOKED GREAT!! It was so nice to hear him say that and to see the excitement on his face. I loved it and It made my day!!!

Art- perfect!!! So excite for you. Keep doing it and that stubborn weight will move. Some if us are very carb sensitive. Low carbing is the only way we loose. My NUT told me to keep my calories low. I told her I eat between 700-800 a day and she said that was great. No need to increase. I keep my carbs low and calories low and I loose at least a pound a week. I hit 149 yesterday!!!!!
