Hey Y'all it's been a while but things are going wonderful. Been hitting the gym 5 days a week and Zumba two days a week. My progress is slow but heck Ill take it. Tomorrow is my 3 month mark and I've lost 45 lbs went from size 22/24 XXL to a size 12/14 L.

I'm days PO and I ate 1 whole meatball!! The amazing part is that I don't want/need any more! It's a strange feeling but I good one.

Thanks everyone!! Did natural bridge caverns today. Lots of climbing steep slopes. I huffed and puffed a few times but heck so did everyone else. I also did this mostly because I wanted more time with my kids.
70% kids
27% husband
3% vanity
Not ashamed. Lol

Bandicootc - you look amazing! Congrats on the results of all of your hard work!. So proud of all of the December sleevers- no matter what speed you lose your weight at - the reality is we are all losing weight and getting healthy in the process. We eat better food, we are active, we feel empowered and we are learning how to not only get that way, but stay that way for our lifetime!
So hold your head high - be proud of the job we are all doing on this journey! Yay for us!!!

i still mess up....i measure all my food.....sometimes i can eat it all and sometimes i throw some away

Holla! Went to Sea World today with my family. We were there from open until close with my sons (3 & 6 year olds). It's amazing how miserable walking around was 67 pounds ago. Today I could walk around with no problem. I fit on all the rides, even the kid ones, and in all of the chairs. Heck I even fit in the bathroom stall. So amazing. There was a dance party at the end for the kids and I danced the whole time with boundless energy even after having walked around and chased kids for almost 12 hours. This is awesome. I attached two photos. One from today and one from our last vacation in August.

Sounds like a bunch of big city talk mumbo jumbo to me. Back in reality land, we know where it goes. You slip the fat under your pillow and the fat fairy leaves you a dollar for each pound. I'm still waiting to get paid! So far that bi*ch owes me 70 bucks!

Hopefully they go to Hell and stay there.
Sorry, 8 days post op and feeling humorous again.

Had a checkup with my Bariatric today. Lost 5 more pounds since Monday thanks to pneumonia. That's 66 since surgery on December 3. They were very pleased with my progress. I have my 20 year high school reunion in June Father's Day weekend. My goal was to lose 100 pounds by then. Doesn't seem like that will be an impossible goal. I haven't seen most of them since graduating because I moved out of state and haven't lived in my home town since. Should be interesting.

I can't wait to be in onederland! It's been 22 years since I was under 200 lbs. I am so close, and yet I keep tottering a few lbs away. I am going to Celebrate like there's no tomorrow!

I workout, but you're right if I went back to a liquid diet (like right after surgery) I could lose 20 pounds a month (with veggies). I have the label reading down to a science, it is amazing how many label readers are out there - when I want to see a label someone before me has already turned the package in the store. Thanks for getting back to me. Continue with your Great Success!

I believe I will take my 6-8 pounds every two weeks over drinking my Protein. No offense. Sure, faster loss would be awesome but I want to live a somewhat normal life too. Keep up the good work.

I hit my 90 day mark the 5th and I am down 80 lbs. I just started biking and I know I need to get more active. I feel good, but still having some issues with my food intake.
It seems I am at the toilet vomiting at least once or twice a day. It wears me out! Some foods I am ok with one time and the next they don't agree with my stomach.
I am 5'6 3/4" and my goal weight is 145. I am currently in between size 16 and 14. I was a size 22 about to bust into a 24. I am seeing the loss now when I put on clothes that are falling off that once were tight.

I was sleeved on the 17th and I have lost 43lbs.

Sleeved 12/13 lost 45 pounds been in a stall for 4 weeks

I run every day 2.5-3 miles. Also walk half a mile Twice per day. I have a 5K race coming up next weekend but after that's over I'll do weights I will alternate weights and running every other day.

Down 44 lbs! Pics to come

I was sleeved almost 6 months ago (24 weeks on Wednesday) . I lost 12 pounds pre-op and have lost another 43 lbs post-op for a total of 55 lbs ( I started at 240 and now weigh between 185 and 187.) That's a good 1.7 lbs a week post-op. It isn't dramatic but it is much better than I could ever do with Weight Watchers and it's pretty much automatic. I try to eat healthy most of the time and I really don't weigh, measure or pay attention to how much I eat. Sometimes I don't lose any weight for weeks at a time and other times I get on the scale and I've lost 5 lbs all at once. But the weeks I haven't lost any weight is often the week that I notice that my underwear is too loose or that I can put on my pants without sitting down anymore. All in all I am happy. My boyfriend says that I eat like a cat even though I feel like I'm stuffing myself when I eat one chicken drumstick, a corn tortilla and low-fat (homemade) refried Beans. I have noticed that I have no problem eating bread or rice but I have to slow way down or I throw up, which also helps me to get full faster and keeps me from eating way too much.

50 pound down today! One of my biggest goals! Woot woot!!!! 45 more to lose! Rating about 10 pounds a month I can totally do this! So pumped

I am so sorry for my post last night I wrote that under heavy medication lol, I look at it right now and am saying wtf did i write? lol but im sure for the most part you get my point. However excuse my typos and lack of closings on my sentences lol. Oh yeah and today I reached my mini goal 50 pounds gone forever!

Here's a non weight posting success. I am able to put on an adorable pair of of pink and green paisley pants that I bought from Talbot's two years ago. They were WAY tight when I bought them and maybe wore them twice. My fear now is by the time it warms up, they will be falling off of me.

Well I'm 5 6 my goal is 160 but I was happy when I was 180 honestly I just want to get back to a 10/12 and ill be golden
