weigh-in

Thank you all for your advice. Wishing you all well through this journey. <3

Now my problem is letting go of the "losing" aspect of this program and learning how to maintain weight. So many fears of eating normal and gaining weight. I still have a great deal of restriction with my food intake, thankfully. I am strictly a chicken n veggie eater. I have not strayed since surgery (food-wise). I have been very strict since the surgery. I go to the gym 6 days a week x2 hrs a day. I'm 4'11" and weigh 115. I have had a 90 pound weight loss to date. Any suggestions on how I can get over the fear of eating normal .... to maintain my weight? Thank you in advance for ur suggestions!

I get very few comments too, especially at work (where I spend most of the day)! My husband says the women are just jealous and envious and , it would be inappropriate for a male to comment as it could be misconstrued as something more than a compliment. I'm 4'11. My heaviest weight was 206, and I'm currently 140. I went from a pant size 16/18. I'm now a size 6/8. I've lost 66 pounds and for my height, every pound, whether I gain or lose is noticeable. Hang in there!! Your doing great!! Ill be the first to tell you, YOU LOOK AMAZING!! :-)

Oddest comment- From my husbands 80 year old aunt- "Wow, look... You have a neck now!! A long slender neck. And under all that fat, we see how pretty you really are!" :-/

I lost a bushel of apples!! Any way you slice it, I'm happy to the core!! (Badda bing)

I'm 3 months out and my stomach never feels full. It feels like the tube that leads to the stomach gets full, all the way to the throat, where that one last bite will make u puke. But, before that last bite, I know it's time to stop. It's weird.

Happy dance, cartwheels, splits ( ok well not splits yet, but next shopping venture, I will). Thank u all for the kind words of encouragement. ????????

I'm 3 months out. I went to the mall yesterday to buy slacks for work becuz all my pants are falling off me (size 12), and picked up some size 10s to try on....and to my surprise, the 10s were too big!!! I'm officially in a size 8!! All 4 pairs of slacks I bought were size 8!!! I haven't been a size 8 since .... Well, decades!! I went from a size 12 to size 8.... totally skipping size 10. So excited!! 4'11" Heaviest weight: 206 Pre surgery: 192 Surgery weight: 186 Current weight: 146

I was unable to drink anything without that horrible taste, as well. Water even was bad. I lived on ice chips for one month post op, then I was able to tolerate water, crystal light, etc. but, yeah... It took me a month to get that taste out of my mouth. And, trust me, ur breath probably isn't very nice either. That goes away too! Good Luck!!
