54lbs since my sleeve on 2/21. When I get off track, I come on this site to read about everyone's weight loss and it motivates me! Thanks for all your posts and pictures! It's making my weight loss successful

I lose 20 pounds since my sleeve I'm 11 days out yeah baby can wait. I haven been this weight since 2003. Just thinking that 11 days toke me back to high school memory lol good memorys.

Jajaja no I work as a assistant manager in Starbucks lol. No but foreal Starbucks customers do want all the attention.

Hey I work in Starbucks. :-D. Ass manager. Bad girl.

Hopefully this works. I just posted an album of me with before photos and progress along the way.
I doubt I could ever fully describe how incredible this past year has been. My surgiversary will be on
March 7th. I started my pre-op diet 2 weeks before at 286.2 lbs; as of this morning I now weigh 142.8 lbs.
I really can't believe it myself. I am a Lapband revision and was told that I should expect to lose slower
because of that. My hope was that at 1 year I would have lost 120 lbs or 10 lbs a month.
VST has been a vital contributor to my success - both in reading the forums before surgery, after and
hoping to contribute along the way (though I admit I have not been on near as much as in those early days).
Many thanks to all of the wonderful members who have posted and shared your journeys, tips, recipes and challenges.
To those of you considering VSG I encourage you to read through the many forums here, as I did. In one sentence I
can tell you that this is the best thing I ever did for myself!
To those of you in the first month after VSG - hang in there, the first month was the hardest - it gets better and better.

Jajaja good one. Or cramps on the leg.

How tou did it. Please help I been oit for 5 days but wanr to star with the right feet. I don't really like eating and to gety meal is a problem. By the way you look awesome!

I love that you have created a section where we can share info, that is certain to affect only women of color,. I too love all color brothers and sisters, however, we are made up differently in certain instances. Please keep posting info... Also would like to ask about Slidder foods, just heard recently about them... such as chips, popcorn, etc. Why don't these foods fill us up? Thanks again

Adding a few new entries:
DON'T expect the scale to post a loss every single day. As a matter of fact, don't expect it to move that much even weekly! Just keep doing all the right things and the scale will move in the right direction when it needs to.
DO expect to see fluctuations on the scale, both down AND up. DON'T lose your head over it either. This isn't a miracle cure and the weight isn't going to magically disappear in a few weeks. You have to keep pushing with healthy eating, some type of workout and getting plenty of Fluid.
DON'T let the scale define your journey when there are so many pieces to that puzzle!!!

Trying this whole message board thing out. Just a test to make sure I am doing it correctly. thanks for bearing with me!

Lol...yeah he's very easy on the eyes. Thank you, It's nice to know that all the Bariatric Beauties on here share that pivotal moment when you hear "ok you are clear" and your able to exhale.

Was he handsome before he cleared you??
Hehehe...and congratulations!!

Re quote. For your husband to find you sexier and desired you more. :-)
