  1. I ❤️ my fitbit flex!! It keeps me going an motivated, because I'm constantly trying to get to 1st place! Lol.. FYI I'm a sore looser! ???? I started at about 7-8000 steps a day but I average about 16000-22000 a day now. I walk ALOT at work... At least 12000 a day are from work alone. I also like the alarm vibration to get me up;)
  2. Thanks ladies!! I'm trying to keep it up, just wish I could tighten the loose skin that comes with the loss. Especially my batwings!! Lol.. This has been an amazing journey and I have no regrets;) Best decision I ever made!
  3. Hey everyone.. Just seeing if anyone is selling or trying to get rid of any clothes. Preferably winter attire (pants,sweaters,jackets,shirts) but hey I'm in Texas, so it's hot, cold, and rainy all in one day! Lol.. It really is though. I hate going to buy things at this store do to it being so expensive an I don't get to where but maybe 2-3 time before it's to big. Anything would be greatly appreciated. Sizes are below... Pants/bottoms 14/16 Shirts/tops XL/L Jacket XL Thanks again.. Also I have tons of clothes that I don't fit anymore. Maybe we could possibly trade! I have lots of dresses an shirts ranging from 2x-3x and pants from sizes 17-24. Lots and lots of shoes to! My feet shrank:( and I have a very extensive shoe wardrobe! I have lots of 9 1/2 an 10's. I need 8 1/2 an 9s now!

  5. Well ladies... Just wanted to throw this topic out there. Who has considered plastics after weight loss stops? Idk about u all but I'm already noticing lots of saggines in upper arms(bat wing area!Lol) an in thighs! It's disgusting.. When I was bigger than I am now it was at least smooth/firmish. I have been researching this Dr.Duran in Dominican Republic for a while now an she comes top rated. I no a few ladies that have gone her way an have had good experiences to. I guess my question is.. What is everyone's take on being so far away from home and getting work done? Also how far out from surgery should you start considering plastics? I know it's waaaay to soon for me, considering my sleeve was 5/28. I'm just loosing so fast (70+ lbs in 4 months) and didn't no what my options were. I have been working out to try to tighten up but it's so NOT working:( Suggestions??? And Opinions???
  6. Surgery date 5/28... Journey has been amazing an so far so good! Love my sleeve an no regrets;) Stats: SW 294 CW 223 Starting pant size 24 Current pant size 14/16
  7. So far so good.. Here are a few updated before/After pics. Surgery was 5/28 and the scale is dropping so fast! I'm so photogenic now;) attachment=48733:ImageUploadedB yBariatricPal1413512934.413184.jpg]
  8. I'm in Houston area an would be interested to. I started in a 24 an now an in a 15/16! Hate buying clothes... Never get to where anything twice, because when I get ready to where again it's to big!
  9. Where are u located, an would u consider mailing?

  12. Are u 73 lbs done from day of surgery or from the beginning of pre op diet to? I was also sleeved May 28th, but I'm only down 51 lbs but that's from day of surgery. Congrats on ur loss;)
  13. I know that hotel, it's beautiful! They have a nice bar area in lobby area to;)
  14. What insurance company is this that is sending you through the hoops? I wish that these insurance companies would stop doing this to people an get on board. You'd think they would want to pay for it, because if we don't get it and continue gaining weight then more an more medical problems would occur! Ugh.. I'm so sorry you are going through this, an I hope your next appeal goes well. I'm so glad my insurance company didn't do this to me, I would have lost it on them! Lol.. I will keep my fingers crossed for you. I promise;)
  15. I'm actually already healed up, I was doing super about 6 weeks out. I had mine done on 5/28/14 so I'm 10 weeks out and so far I've lost 51 lbs since the day of surgery. I feel much better! I didn't think it was going to happen this fast, but no complaints How are you doing so far? Also I had my surgery done at park plaza, and I loved it there. Everyone was do nice
  16. How did u gain all that weight back? How much did u loose before u gained it back? Were u able to just eat? Do u think ur stomach had stretched? When did u start gaining ur weight back? Sorry for so many questions, I was recently sleeved on 5/28 an I'm a questioner! Lol
  17. I was sleeved 5/28 so I am about 10-11 weeks post op. I also had a hernia repair done the same time I was sleeved, but I haven't had any complications other then ALOT of heartburn. I mean I even get it if I just drink water:( I'm sorry u are having a lot of complications an I hope that everything turns around for u
