I made the team I'm so excited to be dancing again and for my baby girl to cheer me on!

So far, we have lost 1064.9 pounds this challenge!!!!

I think the 170s were the hardest I encountered. You feel awesome because you can wear normal clothes and your body works like it should. I got comfortable and started cheating/sticking little things in my mouth. It took me awhile to realize I was doing that. As soon as I got it under control, the weight started coming off again.

Fix my scale and is all working ok. Am at 174 lbs excited!! ????????

Sleeved March 30th, down 95lbs including 2 week pre op liquid diet. I have probably another hundred to lose but have been feeling great and noticed a lot of difference. Keep up the hard work everyone!

Had mine 3/25 doing great I'm starting to dance again so my work out will start there so I'm excited

Thanks the last time I felt like this was before surgery I was in the operating room and they had to stop because I couldn't stop vomiting I felt so bad lol
Yes I'll post more about it once they tell me if I got it

Sounds like good old-fashioned stage fright or anxiety to me. Break a leg! Can't wait to hear more!

I went from 8.5 back to 7 because I have chubby feet but from weight loss they have become thinner lol love it so far

Yes, really!
Weight fluctuates. At 52 days out, you know darn well you can't eat enough to gain weight. Just like what was said, Water retention is usually the culprit. Your body is pretty much saying at this point "It's not you. It's me."
If the fluctuations are going to drive you bonkers, stay off the scale and only weigh periodically. If you get to the point where you can see them and understand that they are a normal part of the whole process, then carry on.

They are pants or whatever I decide I want them to be! People are so quick to tell someone what they can and can't wear at certain weights. Sure, some articles of clothing don't necessarily flatter everyone but I've decided I will not allow anyone to tell me what I can and cannot wear ever again so to Celebrate that new found freedom I'm wearing leggings, My daughter snapped a picture and I'm sharing it!!! Like it or not!! Oh and when my new tall boots show up this week that cover my thick legs I'm going to wear them too!!! Hope everyone is winning their own battles.

@@cockapoomom - you said it yourself, you are not consistent with Water and Protein and you are failing yourself. The other posts were excellent responses and I think you know you need to get "your head in the game" -
you got this!

I think I have finally hit one-hundred land. I am hoping that it stays under 200 even with family here. I have made quite a few good choices and my uncle and his wife see a major change in me. I actually said no to garlic bread, because it wasn't worth it. I did say yes to the Pasta and martini but I am making choices. I actually have 2 days left of Pasta but ended up getting rid of 1/2-1/3 of the pasta so it is more seafood than pasta now.

Man, I am having one of my best weight loss weeks since my surgery! 7.1 pounds this week! WOOHOO!

Same 175

Okay... here is a grander weigh of describing this threat, 'The March Sleever'.... as I look on at amazement on those with over 100 pounds gone forever... and noticing there are 109 followers of this thread.. IF... IF the average (conservatively) March Sleever, on this site, lost just 50 pounds... that is 5, 450 pounds or the grander part... nearly 3 TONS of weight loss (there are 2000 pounds in a ton)... WOW... that is all I can say!!! We are changing ourselves!!!

I don't know percentages but to date i have lost 103 pounds and i have 35 pounds to go and I'm pain free so I'm very happy

If we do percentages then I have lost 66% of my excess weight. 110lbs down and 56 to go!

Don't you find it frustrating to compare lbs lost? We all have such different body types, starting points, amount to lose, etc.
I think it would be a little more apples-to-apples to discuss as % of excess weight lost. For example, I have lost 83 of 137 excess lbs, so I have lost 60.5% of my excess weight. Anyone with me on this?

I have UHC too but all I need it was the 6 month supervise diet and psych evaluation blood work and be clear for surgery and I was approved in a week after it was all submitted also cover 100% only had to pay $250 for a over night stay at the hospital but had my own room so I was ok with that! Good luck!!
