Best thing I ever did. 18 months out. But if you do it... make the healthy changes. You will be proud of yourself and you will feel amazing.

I'm in! Thank you very much for coordinating this!

I found some pictures of me on my parents computer today, back from 2010. I was so much bigger then than I was last yr before surgery. I think in this one, I was about 295. It's funny because I happen to still have the outfit I was wearing, which was clearly very tight on me. So I put it on and did a side by side. I showed my bf, and he was like, that was you???

You look amazing!! Way to go.

Hi, I am doing very good thank you, what about you?

Life has been fairly uneventful lately. Since my last restaurant experience 2 weeks ago I have had no nausea or vomiting. I am making a concerted effort to eat well and have tiny bits of veggies at every meal. Sometimes all I can have is 5 blueberries, one strawberry or 1/4 of a banana. My best idea so far was to cook a bunch of veggies (since slightly overcooked feel best) and make very small portions and freeze then in snack sized ziplock baggies. This way I can add then to any meal and I can also add chicken to them or any leftover Protein as leftovers come about throughout the week . This way I have lots of emergency meals for those days i am too busy and can't cook. I don't feel like cooking for me sometimes. My favorite is a chicken thigh without skin or visible fat boiled for at least an hour. I guess because it's warm and yummy for my tummy it goes down well. Salt and pepper is all it needs and I add one of my veggie medleys. Do you have favorite go to meals that always agree with you?

I noticed I eat a lot less flavor. Intense flavors bother me. I used to be very adventurous with my food but now I am simple.

You are doing so well. Planning like that with your meals is awesome. My stomach does not do as well with a mixture of food. Like a sandwich. It likes one item at a time. I like love veggies but can only do a couple bites at a time. I drink Water like crazy. My body can't seem to get enough. I think I may be to wonderland which would be awesome. But have not weighed myself in a couple weeks. Going to wait one more week.

Well you are doing so great. Happy Friday.

What happened to everybody?

Missing my best buddies!

Hi Beni... How are you doing?

@@walkin'onsunshine.

Congratulations. The halfway mark is a huge thing (no pun intended). I too am nearing that milestone. Doesn't feel amazing to finally be at a place were success is possible? It wasn't easy but you did it.

Thank you. I think I am most excited that I am no longer 100 pounds overweight.

It just dawned on me that I'm half ways to my goal too! That snuck up on me!

Woohoo!! Congrats!! Way to go!!

I hit the half way mark today. I started my journey last January with 125 pounds to lose. I have officially lost a total (pre and post surgery) of 62 1/2 pounds. 62 1/2 to go. Beyond happy.
