  1. What part? I'm in Suffolk.
  2. Staying off the scale is so much easier said than done. I only weigh once a week or once every other week as it is. I can't just not weigh myself. I feel like I need to to see progress.
  3. Thank you. I just feel like I'm working so hard, I go 5 days a week for a minimum an hour my second job I'm on my feet the entire time, and I'm not seeing the result so feel like I need. I'm going to keep going because I have more energy lately but I just wish the scale would move more than .3!!
  4. Did anyone notice a stall when you started going back to the gym? I went back a couple weeks ago, doing a lot of weights and core work, and I lost .3 lb this week which is pretty discouraging. Last week (after not weighing myself for 2 weeks, I lost 1.1). I try not to weigh often but the scale calls me. I was weighing every day and now I do it once a week or every other week to keep some sanity and it does make me feel much better. I never measured myself at the beginning which I regret, but my clothes are looser. I just feel like I'm not losing the way most other people are. I'm at 2 months now and lost a total of 28.3 lbs. starting weight was 215, current 186.7 and goal is 140. Advice? Encouragement? Thank you in advance. [emoji173]️
  5. You'll feel like a million bucks. Thankfully after my lift and reduction, they didn't change much so I'm still good to go. The other skin however, that is a different story!
  6. I'm about 2 months out and I've gone a few times. People will say what they want but bottom line is, I'm not trying to be pale in my wedding dress and I work 2 jobs, 7 days a week so getting to the beach is about hard.
  7. Own it girl, you look amazing!
  8. I had one years ago because I was a 40 H, and not that heavy-oh how things changed. But, best decision I ever made in my life. I was up and moving the next day without any issues. You'll do great!
  9. I'm a 9 days from 2 months and down 28, and stalling. But I look at it like hey, I lost 28 lbs-I didn't gain 28 lbs.
  10. My IG is Amanda_Who. You can add me because I can't find you.
  11. Hey I had mine May 31st. And I didn't really tell anyone either! What part of NY? I'm on Long Island!
  12. When was your surgery date? You look great!
  13. I went back exactly a week later and I was fine. Just take it easy.
  14. I feel your pain. For a week after surgery I slept on the couch because I couldn't lay completely flat and I was just so uncomfortable. Hang in there. It gets better!
  15. You're on a great track. I lost 15 over 2 weeks of liquids. Keep up the good work!
  16. Anyone have these? I don't often, maybe have had 2 or 3 in a month and a half but today I'm constantly hungry! Only eating protein still, should be allowed veggies starting tomorrow at my appointment ????. I don't know what's going on! I eat and wait the half hour to drink and then wait another half hour to eat again! Suggestions?
  17. I was May 31st. SW: 215 CW: 198 GW: 150
  18. I was like that too. But Day 5 I woke up a new person. I struggled to eat and drink and lost 8 lbs the week of surgery. It gets better. Sip all day. Take in a spoon full of protein when you can. You got this [emoji173]️
  19. Damn! That is a nightmare.
  20. I've been making my own carb free chicken meatballs and making enough for the weak. I've done Buffalo, BBQ, and now chicken parm. They're what's saving me and helping me hit protein goals.
  21. Thank you so much! I love Pinterest so I will definitely be doing so searching tonight!
