I'm still trying to finish wk1. It's kicking my butt!!!

I downloaded the couch to five k a few months ago. Last night was the first time I was able to complete a section in week one I have never been one to jog or run lol so I'm hoping to finish up week two soon :)

I am six months post-op and I have been experiencing mega sensitive tatas for the last three months!! There is no possibility for pregnancy, I had a hysterectomy two years ago. Just wondering if anyone has been having this issue...... I do sometimes think they are sore because they have shrunk so fast lol My first twenty pounds lost was just boobs alone!!

Down 2 pounds this week after no lose last week. Just hit my 50# mark!!!!! I still can't believe I have lost 50#. :) it's a happy day!

Ok, entered my info. Am loving this! HW 298 SW 283 10-29-12 CW 253 Keep up the good work everyone!! Chanda

I cannot wait to ride a roller coaster again! I told my kids that's the first thing we are going to do this summer, and I am sooooo excited! My next thing I want to do is go on a cruise with my best friend :-)

Am not going to make my revised goal of 250 :-( But I am down to 255, which I haven't been in 8 years! Am feeling good and full of energy! Have been fighting a stall since the beginning of December but its starting to go down again. Happy New Years! What's the next challenge?? Chanda HW 298 SW 283 10-29-12 CW 255

I too am a Special K Protein Cereal lover, love having choices for extra protein.

I was sleeved 10/29 and have been through two stalls (currently in the second stall). I am at the point where I can eat what I want, but find I stay with cheese, ff refried Beans, canned chicken Nd tuna, and Protein shakes. I have to admit I love my chocolate protein mixed with Water and sf hazelnut syrup. It tastes like iced coffee. :-) I'm in MFP also if anyone wants to add me. Chanda HW 298 SW 283 10-29-12 CW 259

I was sleeved 10/29 and my fiancé was sleeved Tuesday. It's hard to watch him go through these first couple days because I know how hard it is, and I wish there was more I could do. But I think the first week is kind of like a right I passage, it sucks, it's hard, and there are a lot of tears and doubt, but it is all worth it. Each week is better and your mind and your body will start to work together again soon. Honestly the only way I survived the first week was through this website. It is so encouraging a d I am so thankful for everyone a s their stories! You all can do it, the holidays will suck but the pounds lost will make you cheerful again.....

I do not think my goal of 240 will be met by New Years. Am having a lot of stalls and am getting frustrated, but I know I will start losing again. Am going to shoot for 250 as my new goal. Keep up the good work everyone!!! Chanda HW 298 SW 283 10-29-12 CW 259

I use protein when I drink my coffee. I make sure the coffee is under 140 degrees, I like to use chocolate or vanilla protein (usually only one scoop) and sometimes I use the Torani sf syrups. I love raspberry and hazelnut. I even use those syrups in my protein mixed with water and it tastes like iced coffee

Thank you for this, am going to keep this for my next stall! Chanda

This looks so good, I love crab!! Thanks for sharing! :-)

I think it is just the newbie sleeve jitters....I know it is normal to have a little stall around this time. But was happy to be down today :-) I do use MFP, I will add you. Thank you so much for the encouragement!! Chanda

Today's weight: 272

I was sleeved 10/29. I'm not having any problems, am on mushies. Can do about half a cup of food at a time. Sometimes I feel like I'm eating to much? I don't get a full feeling, I haven't felt sick at all. I use my little containers and just stop after that is gone.... HW 295 SW 283 CW 275 Chanda
