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!!!!!

Sorry to say that in the past I rarely got my strips to dark purple even when doing 20 carbs it less. Maybe it because I have PCOS. My strips would register a light shade of pink.

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!!!

Parker-you know I do. All the Georgia peaches are grown that way. Lol!!!
I also weigh first thing in the morning after goi g to the bathroom. Naked my friends. U consider that my true weight.

Funny story.
Yesterday I went Bra shopping. They had a bra fitting specialist from Vanity Fair that measured me. As soon as she put the tape measure around my rib cage she said... "Your tinny" I know I must have looked like the world stopped spinning or something... I said to this lady .. " I've been called alot if things but tinny has never been one of them". She looks at me strangely then I explained that I'd lost alot of weight.
I'm telling you.. It felt strange and great all at the same time. It's funny how our brains still see us at Pre op weight.
I have gone from a 42DD to a 34-36D. If this keeps up I may have to buy some new boobs. Lol!!!

Sue--- love the new photo!!! Looking hot lady!!!!

Takroom- we all understand. We all work so hard to move this weight. It's irritating when it's not moving. So nice to talk with everyone here because we all go through ups and downs.

I'm down 59 in 5 months.
Day of surgery 215 today 156!!!

All of you guys are awesome!!!!
I so love that we have each other to talk with about our struggles and success. It's great because I know that all of you get it... Nice to have the support.
Have a good day!!!

You are doing a great job!!!

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!!!

I confess that your post made me sad. You have our support!
My other confessions include:
I confess that I have gone down all the sizes in my closet and i finally hit the smallest size and they no longer fit (size 12) so I literally have NOTHING that fits. Sounds like a good problem to have, but it has me very depressed.
I confess that I get irritated when people tell me to buy new clothes because my clothes are too big. If it offends them so much they can buy me some.
I confess I don't want to spend the money on clothes for fear I will not be able to wear them long. Plus size 12's are too big, but 10's are snug. What can I wear?
I confess that this depression has made me snacky and self sabotaging on my diet. I ate Cookies today and FRIES yesterday.
I confess I am worried when I get in these funks that I will go back to old habits because I don't feel worthy.
I confess I love the people on VST because they are always willing to help and listen. It's like free therapy.
I confess I love this thread. Still feel yucky in my clothes though.
