  1. I do each about 20 minutes now on each machine so about an hour...I have added a couple machines that target my love handles and stomach but only do them about 15 times in sets of 3 ...I never liked working out and don't love it now but I feel so much better after I exercise. I am trying to tone but still have a lot of loose skin.

  7. Thank you! It is possible and so worth it. I look in the mirror and don't recognize myself. I've never wore anything under a 13/14 and I still have a hard time shopping ...looking at 7/8 and s/m shirts is so foreign that I catch myself saying... You can't wear that all the time! The day I walked in Cato and the girl told me I needed to go to the other side to shop was a big day for me. Not shopping on the plus size was so rewarding!! People don't recognize me and it feels amazing! At 6 weeks it seems like a long journey but r'ber it is worth the wait! This sight has helped me tremendously and I am cheering for you!! You will do it and can't wait to see your 1 yr pics!!

  13. Remember all the reasons you had surgery! New health and energy! Visit fresh produce stores and fill fridge with them... Also use food tracker guide! Helps me a lot! Are you an emotional eater? I am
  14. HW 317...today 162 I stalled multiple times and it has never come off I have to remind myself with pictures constantly of the lose so far to help motivate me to see it is coming off! I really had to grieve my "best friend" (food) for months. I don't know if anyone else did but this was something I still struggle with! I have always been overweight and this has been life changing in all the right ways your still emotional from surgery and learning what you can/can't have...all normal! I assure you it will come off! Just follow your diet and exercise and it will come off!!
