  1. I don't think I will ever get used to shopping in the non-plus sized section of the store. I hate that I feel like a fraud in the normal sized section too. Guess the only way to get over that is to keep up the shopping habit:)

      Oh, you are gorgeous! Keep shopping! I tried on a pair of jeans in a RIDICULOUSLY small size today and they fit...so I think they must be mislabeled :)

      Thanks everyone for the sweet comments!

       

      @ShelterDog64 I felt the same way. My mother in law is a solid size 10 so I came to her house and tried on a few pairs just to see and they zipped right up. Congrats to you!

      Me neither - I went to walmart.com to buy new sweatshirts, automatically went to the big and tall section, and realized I was too small for that section now! Great work! You look fantastic!

  2. Hello, weekend I have missed you! Looking forward to seeing some friends I haven't seen in months. Happy Weekend everyone!

  3. I do not want to adult today, i just want to go back to my comfortable bed. The only thing that could make today better is if TWD came back on tonight. I'm ready to see who got to meet Lucille! Can it be October yet? lol

  4. I had my first taste of guacamole today, pretty sure my tastebuds had a orgasm.

  5. I stepped onto the scales this morning and finally reached the milestone that I was begining to think would never come-ONEDERLAND! Do I have loose, saggy skin? You bet! But I would take that any day of the week over fat filled skin. There is a surgery to help correct that just like there was a surgery to help me get to where I am today. To finally see that number makes me feel even more determined to reach my goal and to maintain that for the rest of my life. So very grateful for my sleeve! Happy Monday everyone:)

      That's fantastic! I know how you must feel, just nothing like it.

    4. Noname22

      Noname22

      @BigViffer you are so right about that! Now to lose the last thirty or so pounds and start living at goal. The biggest challenge will be maintaining.

  6. I believe I will treat myself to a nice hot bubble bath, it's been a long day.

    1. Valentina

      Valentina

      I hear ya! I'm not cleared for hot baths until next Thurs---after skin surgery. I can't wait. A hot bath does wonders for body and soul. Enjoy!!!

      ProudGrammy

      ahhhh, nice NSV in the near future - relaxation, candles, soft music - get hubby or someone to join you LOL - kathy

      @Valentina How exciting to have skin surgery! I hope everything turned out well and you are happy with the results. Yes the long hot bath definitely does wonders for the soul. I felt much better afterwards and slept like a baby! I hope you continue to heal and Thursday will be here before you know it.

       

      @proudgrammy hubby will not do a bath but he will do showers and those are nice too;)

  7. I have been stalled for 6 weeks now, and I'm starting to get impatient. It's hard to embrace the stall when onderland is so close! The last 34 pounds are going to be the hardest. If anyone has any suggestions, I will gladly take them:)

    1. Dub

      Dub

      I've been stalled a bit, too.

       

      I don't believe in embracing stalls. So sick of seeing that term thrown around like, "Here, here Dear....sorry you are stalling,....have some warm cookies and a glass of chocolate milk and embrace the stall". I'm sure it's not intended like that....but it's how it hits me at times.

       

      As soon as the knees give me a break the cardio will be revisited hardcore. I'm certain this will git'r'dun.

       

       

      There is no doubt about it.....these last pounds are coming off much slower than I thought they would, too. My one year runs out in 7 weeks and i've gotta ways to go. Gotta hammer down.

       

      I wish I had better advice.....I'm rowing the same boat it would seem.

       

       

    2. Noname22

      Noname22

      @Dub I have a hard time with that phrase too. I don't believe in sugar coating things, put forth the work and you will be rewarded. I feel as though I put forth the work, I guess that's why I have a hard time with the stall. Maybe it's time to shake things up and try something new.

       

      Can't believe you are at approaching the one year mark already! Time has definitely flew by. Hang in there, keep rowing, your determination and grit will see you through.

       

      Now, lets get busy and go kick these last few pounds arse!

      "KMA0910

      @Dub I bought their banana flavor too, just haven't tried it yet. I remember being pre op and read a post of yours that you liked that brand....it was probably the only brand that I hadn't tried. So thanks to you I am a premier girl lol. Peaches and cream could be their next great flavor. You should suggest that!"

       

       

      You've been Premier girl long before that........

       

      Jus sayin'............

    3. Bee healthy

      I think the banana flavor is sweet, but I mix it with coffee and it's fantastic. I do the same with the vanilla. Chocolate is my Fav. I think peaches and crea would be an awesome flavor!!!!!

    4. Noname22

      Noname22

      @Djmohr I still haven't tried the banana flavor, but to me the caramel is just right. I did mix it with coffee though.

  9. I had a proud moment early this morning at the gym...staying on the elliptical for an hour! It was an awesome feeling that I won't forget, hope to do it again tomorrow!

      Thank you @oldbriannomore it most definitely is!

  10. Six months post op today. It's hard to believe what all has been accomplished not just weight wise but also the change that cant be seen on the inside. I can say for the first time in a really long time, I love myself. I only wish I had done this years ago.

      Thanks @Dub there has definitely been a change. I'm not the same person I was three months ago and sure as heck am not the same person I was 6 months ago.

  11. Walking on the beach last year at 312 vs this year at 204 has been a huge eye opener to me. Walking in the sand doesn't bother me a bit, and I'm able to keep up with my little boy! Forever grateful

      @TheOdysseyOfAStoutMan I did have a nice weekend, played with my little fella. It's nice to be able to be an active mom and not just a sideline mom. Fun times were had. I hope you had a nice weekend as well!

  14. Much needed adult night was had tonight. Now i am ready to cuddle up to the cutest three year old I know

  15. Unexpected NSV a few moments ago...I was trying to text a friend a funny picture by putting my double chin on display. For the life of me couldn't get the double chin to show! 5 short months ago I could easily show off a triple chin. Hell yes, I am proud!

      @TheOdysseyOfAStoutMan hopefully you will get the CPAP soon. You're right waiting does suck, but it's worth the wait. I know it's easier said than done though.

      That's great! my DL is so old I don't remember what it says - I should check. mine doesn't get renewed for 3 more years I think.

    4. Noname22

      Noname22

      Thank you! Yeah mine isn't supposed to be renewed until 2018 I believe. I'm not planning on waiting that long. Worked too hard and have come a long way. Plus I hate the picture lol
