You look fantastic!- Before and After 8 months
Thank you guys so much. I know we all get discouraged but I'm going to keep trying. I'm 5' 1.5" pretty short. I'm still considered obese at my new weight. I guess we are never happy with our bodies. I just want to see that 145 on the scale. I have to make it happen. Thank you again for your encouragement. I know we can do it!! This is the best decision we made.- Before and After 8 months
I started at 222 I am now 156 and I love my body but my goal is 145 and Im at a 6 week stall. I just had surgery on my foot and I can't exercise for at least 2 weeks. I'm really stressed that I will gain weight just laying here. I'm hungry all the time. I'm able to eat bigger portions as well. I can't go back ever! I am just praying that this stall ends and that I can eat healthy again and this hunger goes away.- drinking
I waited 3 weeks I'm a lush. I was fine. no beer and No carbonated drinks. Wine is goo just drink slow.- When do you buy new clothes?
Thank you guys for your feedback. I totally understand the hoarding. I had so many shirts and dressed that I wouldn't get rid of because I felt I was giving up. I can wear those now yay!- When do you buy new clothes?
Ooh thank you ladies. They aren't falling yet but hopefully soon. I just got a cute top from a clearance rack. Now I just need a skirt or dress.- Cheeseburgers?
Dianne38 I respect you for being honest. Not everyone is perfect like these people with so much self control! I understand what you mean by they take it so seriously, you didn't mean that your health is not important. Enjoy your life and be happy!- When do you buy new clothes?
I am down 29lbs and my clothes is a little loose but I am only 5 weeks post op and I know I will lose more. When did y'all start buying clothes. I have a Vegas trip next week and I want to at least get a dress. I don't know what do you think? What if I haven't gone down a size? I'm sure I have I just don't want to jump the gun.- Drinking Alcohol
I drank 3 weeks after was told 6 months because of calories. I want to say it hit a little faster but no big difference. No hangover. I will never have beer again I don't miss that fat bloated feeling you would get the next few days. So I do vodka and cranberry when I go out or a screwdriver. Not a big deal. But now I'm conscious of the calories.- 3 weeks ppst op B & A
Thank you do much. Unfortunately I hit a stall. Hope it doesn't last.- Stalled maybe even gaining 4 weeks out
Thank you. They say it goes Away but I'm over here thinking Really I have to diet? If I could do that I wouldn't have had this surgery. Plus I only eat like a bird already. I can't do wxtre exercise either. So frustrated.- Stalled maybe even gaining 4 weeks out
- Stalled maybe even gaining 4 weeks out
I was 219 when I started I am now 197.6 I was at 196 the sat before New Years. How can I possibly have gained 2 almost 2lbs. I have not been getting all my water. It's still uncomfortable to drink a lot. I have not had any protein. I will start again tomorrow. I barely eat about 700 Cals a day. I don't understand. Is it possible that I will not lose More? Did anyone else go through this? I'm really upset.- Alcohol after VSG?
I had two drinks three weeks out. I was fine. Went away fast. It's not worth the calorie intake but I'm a lush. - Before and After 8 months
