Felt good today to take my size 4X shirt and hold it up to me. My husband even said out it on for a giggle. It felt so big.
So all my larger clothes went on to the bag off to donations tomorrow
I did keep the clothes I wore the day of surgery as a reminder.
Feeling this good and down 50lbs (1/3) I can wait for more!

My surgery to have the loose skin removed from my belly is approved and I go under the knife August 20! Woot!
my superpower is......

I did 4 miles on the elliptical. Getting ready for my first 5K this weekend.

We all had surgery around the same time and I have the same issue. I'm down 35 lbs so far. I have went down in shirt sizes and my measurements as far as inches are super duper awesome. I've lost 8 inches off of my abdomen. My doctor already told me that he assumed I would be a slow but steady looser. My thyroid being my biggest foe. I'm really thrilled though because I couldn't have lost 35 lbs in two months on my own ever. I lost 25 lbs last year and it took me 6 months. And then I gained half of it back before surgery. Plus I've had some issues and I know that you've had some issues that others may not have had. It's all in how you look at the big picture. Would you rather average 2-4 lbs per week for weeks or drop 50 off the bat and then stall forever. I would rather go slow but keep up the weight loss over a longer period of time. Don't let yourself get down. We early June loosers are just taking our time!

Happy Birthday!!! For the past several years I have always promised myself that I would weigh less on my next birthday. I bet it feels great to have that come true!!

HEY JUNIES! How are you all doing? How are you feeling? I feel AMAZING, hope y'all do too!

Try going to ilostwhat.com - really neat site. Put in how much you lost and it spits out something like this.

I mowed for an hour

Always give my clothes to our local rape/abuse crisis center. They really appreciate the larger sizes fir ckients starting life over.

Swam for an hour

I don't normally post pic but I was looking at all my old Facebook pics and could not believe the difference ! 10 months out

Same here... I average around 800 cals a day, but tend to lose every time I have my "fun friday" and up my cals to 1200. I didn't lose all week and last night after I ate about 1100 cals, I woke up and has lost 3 lbs. lol it's a balancing act. You need to remain low carb for the majority of the time, but also have to show your body that you aren't trying to starve it. Lol

I looked at your diary and I would suggest increasing how many calories you take in each day. Each time I've had a stall I would increase by about 100 calories for a while and I would start losing again pretty quickly. If your body goes in to starvation mode it will start storing fat instead of losing it.
Hope this helps!!

whats up?

Double post.

I found 2 new Protein items that are really tasty. Both are from GNC. One of them is the Lean Bar- blueberry yogurt. The other is their lean pudding. Both have 15 grams of protein.

Hey everyone!! I am new to this site and I am looking forward to meeting new people who have had WLS or are thinking about having surgery. I have documented my journey and wanted to share them with you so that you can get to know me. Today I am currently 2 months post op and like I said, I am down 72 pounds which is just amazing to me how quickly the weight is coming off. I know it will vary from week to week. Looking forward to meeting you and hope to hear some positive feedback
