I now have collar bones, nice hip bones, and a nice jaw bone I never knew I had lmao

i'm still preop, but i thought i'd share my goal: pick up a pencil off the floor w/o that move...you know the one, the sitting splits or the wobble to the left so i can bend far enough to pick it up...yeah...that's my goal. I don't have a goal weight, I just want to pick up a pencil.

I stood in the shower today washing my legs and i couldn't get over my thighs...or lack thereof. I can't remember the last time I though my thighs looked good!

Silly as it sounds, I stared at my shoulders for a good ten minutes the other day. They're better defined now and it when I wear a shirt it doesn't look like I shoved pillows up my sleeves.

Pelvic Bone for me and being able to prop my foot up on my dresser and put my socks on without gasping for air

I've been having a rough week- I've had the flu and with so much drainage- I barely have room for real food. I've been drinking shakes to try and make up the room. The plus side- I'm down to 201.8. I have 2lbs to get to my first mini goal. I'm so determined to get to onederland!!

I use my fitness pal too. It will track your Protein, your carbs, your sodium, calories etc. I love the scan feature where you can scan bar codes. I love the app!

I use My Fitness Pal, tracks all nutrients, exercise, calories - its awesome!!!

My fitness pal. It will track anything you eat. Just scan the barcode and tells you what you have daily like reading a food label its awesome.

I was initially super freaked about the Hair loss thing too, then I realized that I can afford to go buy hair extensions with all the money I'm NOT spending on groceries, fast food, ect. Don't sweat it, take 2000 mg of Biotin a day to keep the hair loss at bay. I'd rather be skinny with thin hair than fat with thick hair

My pelvic bone!! Lol...

This made me laugh hysterically. My fingers no longer resemble Breakfast sausage links - that was my first "not-so fat" thought.

I'm ashelaine86 on mfp

I was sleeved on Nov. 14 and my SW was 235. Today I am 199. Yay!!! First time under 200 for about 10 years.

I had my sleeve on Nov 13th and in two weeks I lost 35 pounds, week 3 nothing. I gave my girlfriend my scale to hide because I was on the scale 50 times a day and getting discouraged. Hope we all have a great weight loss in the upcoming week.

Sleeved November 11th. Starting weight 377. Weight today 330. I've hit that three week stall this week so I've picked up my exercise and liquids to kick it! Love this sleeve stuff!

I was sleeved on 11/20. And I have lost 32 pounds so far. I walk, walk, walk every day. I'm lucky to live very close to the beach. Walking on the sand is much more forgiving to my joints. I think what helps me is I get all my Protein in, all fluids and all Vitamins. I do still have a shake in the morning because it jump starts my protein intake for the day. And it seems to make me tolerate my vitamins so much better. But I do need to stop weighing myself everyday.

THANKS...
And Yes... I'm probably not getting enough It's hard because I just don't crave fluids that much... I think that I drink 1-2 16 oz bottles per day if I'm lucky :/
This no Water with meals... Or 30 mins before / 30 mins after really makes life a little complicated! :-P

****jumping up and down waving excitedly shouting me, me, me******
I just received my approval over the phone, but my doctor has to get the approval in hand before scheduling my date.
I also noticed that we share the same doctor.
