I need to restart again I fell off and gained 8 pounds after came home from Paris. I'm starting today. Let's do this together

Hi everyone....glad to see all the support and encouragement that we provide to one another. This is difficult journey and I take it 5 pounds at at time. Love that we have started a group. I fell off Last week. Didn't gain but didn't loss either. Back on track ack with protein shake this week. Have dr appt next week. Let's see if can lose 5 to 7 pounds by then. Will keep you posted

your welcome. This is a life change and we all need the encouragements. It is so helpful to know that your not alone. I feel off this last month so I have anoth dr appt on 5/22. I need to be 8 pounds down. So I started being strict again this weekend. I kinda fell off but was not diligent with my Water. Didn't reall lose like should have.b so resetting again

Hi ladies just checking back in. How is everyone. Did u start the reset group. I want in. I'm down to 169. Need to keep going

Hi everyone, it has been 1 month since I posted my weight. When I first started my reset I was 187. Now 5 weeks later I'm at 172.8 This has been hard but so rewarding. I found my willpower. Yesterday at work my team had pizza party and brownies and Oreo balls. I went into the room and talked and everything. What did I eat.....absolutely nothing. I drank my water. Everyone kept trying. To get me to eat and I was like no I'm dieting. In my mind I was thinking if I eat that then I won't lose tomorrow when I get on the scale and that's not worth it. This struggle is real but I truly believe we can achieve our goals and be successful....trying for 6 to 8 more pounds by my doctors appointment whic is March 27.

I think we should challenge ourselves to just go 1 week at a time. That way we can look at smaller goals and work towards that. No celebrating until we hit say 5 pound lost.

I was feeling like failure also but you can do it.... We have the tools. I didn't lose 1 pound last week because of my cycle but I stayed on track for the most part. Ate one bad thing and got over it. Back on track. Also if your hungry or want to snack eat more protein at night. eat two dinners then drink water....that's what I did these last few days and lost another 1/2 pound. you can do this u have us to help you. We are in this together

u can do this. What I have done since my restart is to drink at least 36 oz of water before 11. That takes my hunger away. Also I drink protein shake around 11 or 12. Once I finish this I start back on my water. 64 oz by 2-3 pm. Then have my yogurt. When get home eat my 1 lean protein around 7 and drink more water. After the 3rd day u will be fine

glad that I was able to.....if you want we can support and encourage one another . That always helps

Yest it was......I so happy and will be following plan

I am 16 months out. I never made goal I still need to lose 40 pounds . My lowest weight was 173 in August. I had gained weight and was at 187 at my dr. Visit last week. Needless to say my surgeon challenged me to lose 10 pounds in two months. Told him I thouj my sleeve was broken. Turns out I have been grazing. I kept saying few snack won't hurt me. They have killed me and Im so mad at myself. I'm going to Paris in June and want to look fab. This week went back to basics and have lost 6 pounds since monday. I have gone back to basics as everyone on here suggested and it works. 1 Protein shake in morning , greek yogurt for lunch. Lean protein for snack when get home from work. Additional lean protein around 7 pm. Also have gotten in all my Water something I never did before. Keeping my carbs at 20 grams and my protein at 90. I am so grateful. That I have this forum to see that I'm not alone on this journey

Hi, don't feel discouraged I have not hit goal yet either and I'm 14 months out. I read abt the 5 day test and was planning on starting tomorrow....lets do it together 1 day at at time

Help I have started snacking and have gained 5 pounds..... I need to get back on track and lose my additional 30 pounds....is it too late for my sleeve to help me

Hi I live in redford mi. I need someone to buddy with and hold me accountable. I'm 1 year out and sliding backwards. I need to get it together and loss my additional 30 pounds

I feel this way also....it seems like I'm constantly stalling now. I. Need to lose at least 25 more pounds to feel successful. My year is in two months....I hope to be at least 10 more by then but the scale hasn't budged in almost month. Hit another stall

Hi everyone, I gained 1.4 pounds so now am at 178.2. I started my menes so I'm praying to the weight loss gods that it's just Water retention. Please no more stalls

I have continued to lose. Down to 176.8 as of today. I am afraid to get hopeful that it will last.

Lost another 1.4 pounds......I'm convinced now that it's the water and protein shakes tat did the trick

I agree with u ladies this doesn't side quiet right

Lol...there is nothing healthy abt weighing over 300 pounds.....she has just given up and is making excuses to justify her unwillness to do something about her weight. She is eating more than just Vegan believe that.

Of course she is jealous of you.... Keep the grass low so u can see the snakes. Who ever heard of wls as cosmetic? That b..ch is crazy and u need to stay away from her...girl when she saw me I would be at goal weight looking fab.... Smile at her and wink. No words

Not to be mean or insensitive here but your former friend has some serious mental health issues...each person has to find their path in life and someone wanting to control ur life is not nor never was your friend. your decision to become thin is really not affecting her...she jealous that u will be successful Whereas her previous attempts at thinness ended in failure. She wants u to be miserable with her. Let's be honest who chooses to be obese and have tons of obesity related illnesses. Be glad she ended the "friendship"..

I drink right after I eat....I never wait thirty minutes.....I might wait 5 cause I feel real full

There is a light trust me.... We have all been there...afraid that this to isn't going to work. It will work....it's working now....the hard part is over and once u go to regular foods it just gets easier. No one understands because they haven't been through it. I was freaking out cause felt like I should be at 140 now but realizing its a slow race but I will be successful.
