The cauliflower recipe sounds fantastic! Can I ask if you use fresh shredded Parmesan or the powder stuff in the Pasta aisle?

All I can say is WOW! You look mahvelous!!! (In my billy crystal voice lol)

Ok I'm 105lbs down from my highest weight and feeling pretty good. According to my doc I should lose another 30lbs.
Here's a before/after pic. Can't find any full length before pics. I intentionally took some just to have them for before/after shots and they got erased from my phone

I just made it onederland...today!

I really haven't set a drop dead goal for myself yet. I know I could lose a little more. I can definitely tone which is more important than wt loss at this point. I'm still losing but slowly. So if I drift down another 20lbs over the next 6 mos I think that's great. Doubt I'm doing 30lbs. If I don't lose any more I'm still ecstatic over the new me.

You look fabulous! I also think what my doc wants me at will be too small. When I told her I'm pretty happy right now she laughed and said everybody feels like that because being a normal weight is new to them but years down the road I will regret not losing the rest if I choose to stop. I had my hubby snap a quick pic. Just out of the shower, no bra and a sleep shirt on cause I have some cooking to do and don't want my clothes to get dirty but it'll give u an idea of where I am.
oh well shoot I can't load a pic from here. Let me start another thread lol

I finally hit 100lbs down yesterday. Surgery jan 9, weight 268.6. Yesterday 168.6 exactly. My doc wants me to get to around 135 so another 34lbs to go. I took pre-surg pics but lost all the pics on my phone so I have no comparison shots to post
**wait that's not true. I was 268.6 at my highest lol. Lost 40 before surgery. Down a TOTAL of 100 lbs.

That's funny. Thank goodness I don't own a clothing boutique! My surgeon warned me that many people trade the addiction of eating all the unhealthy foods with shopping addictions. At least I spend my money at the thrift stores for now. My closet is bulging with clothes! Lord help me when I finally stop losing and feel like its ok to buy new clothes.

Surgery 1/21/13 6 months out down 97 pounds started off at 299 now 202

Yeah!!!! That's so awesome! Congrats!!

I feel the same way! Love that my collarbones have reappeared!

I know this sounds trivial in the list of things I can't wait for, but I can't wait to have smaller clothes that don't slip off my clothes hangers. So tired of cleaning up the bottom of my closet floor full of clean clothes.

My doctor does a cholangiogram during surgery and if any stones are found he removes the gb. He also told me he will fix anything he finds, whether its a mass on an ovary or a hiatal hernia, whatever he sees and is able to fix he will fix. Now I have these thoughts of him inspecting every organ inside me one by one while I'm under. I don't know. It seems odd he would venture into other areas. I understand gb or hernia. Anything else? Not so much.

I've already decided if I can afford plastics my neck will be the first target. Hate that droopy skin. So unattractive.

I'm back and 5 months post op. Hello men's room! I'm a slow loser, only lost 50lbs do far but I will take it with a smile (and after a leak) grateful to be alive! I haven't lost any hair, I can actually fit in my fiancé's boxers and get back in some cuter clothes and my sex drive is....
GONE!
Completely! What the crap?!

LMAO! I was thinking the same thing! My hubby is prob 20lbs overweight. Hmmm wonder how I can get him a sleeve.

Starting weight 268
Surg weight 228
Current weight 190
Total loss 78 lbs.
started my diet oct 19, surgery was jan 9. Haven't lost anything for a few days but I wouldn't count that as a stall. Only real stall was 2 weeks post op I didn't lose for over a week.
