I've had a lot of people say that to me as well. I think it's mostly because they're so used to our old bodies they can't seem to grasp our new ones aren't unhealthy just because they're a lot different than before. I always say "I am, look and feel perfectly healthy but thanks for your concern.". That usually seems to stop them from making any more comments or some might say "Well yeah but don't lose any more okay?" and that's the end of it. Unfortunately we can't make everyone like us. Some will say you need to lose weight and some will say you need to stop losing. What's important is for you to be happy with your body and feel healthy and strong. P.S.1 You look quite healthy and very beautiful to me! P.S.2 English isn't my first language so I apologize if I'm not being understood.

Final weigh in: 152lbs. Didn't reach my goal but I'm still quite happy with my progress.

154 today. Getting there pound by pound.

155lbs today. Going super slow as I'm so close to my final goal!

No change for my first week. Still 156 but that's okay! There's still time to reach my goal. Btw congrats Bea! That's amazing and I know that feeling so I totally get your excitement!

Goodmorning! Let's do this! Start weight: 156 Goal weight: 150 Thought I'd be more realistic this time by not setting an unreachable goal. Lost almost all of my extra weight so losing has become quite slow now. 141 will be my final goal that I have to maintain.

Count me in too please! I love challenges!

Ending weight 156lbs. 2lbs higher than my goal but I'm still very pleased! Ready for next challenge!

158lbs today. Totally forgot to update last Friday..I had no loss. I'm happy though! Just 4 more pounds to reach normal BMI! I don't know if I can lose 4 pounds in a week but I guess we'll see. Have a great weekend everyone!

160lbs today! Almost reached normal BMI! So happy!

Today's weight was 162. Not much of a change but it's okay.

Sw: 164 Cw: 163 Hoping to lose more next week! Keep swimming right?

Current weight 164 Valentine's Goal weight 154

My doctor didn't give me any pre op diet either. Just asked me not to eat sweets and foods with a lot of fat the week before the surgery. I guess it depends on the doctor. I did fine anyway so I'm sure you will too. Even though if you do want to follow a pre op diet you could always just ask your doctor and nutritionist or I guess you can also look for one over the internet. I just think it's best that you get advice from your doctor and nutritionist first.

The feeling I get every time something fits is just memorable! So congratulations and may you find even more things that fit in the process.

Before: 266lbs Now: 163lbs So 103lbs down and still going! Can't believe it!

I think some of us do experience regret feelings at first since it's quite a big deal. It's a life changing surgery and some psychological support is quite needed. I did have my moments at first too..heck I still do once in a blue moon at 7 months out but trust me. It does get better! I know eating seems hard now but try taking it slow. Really small bites and good chewing. I hope you feel better soon.
