I kept a size 36 jeans but that's it. That is awesome, congratulations!

This is awesome! Way to go The New Kel!

What a great idea! I just had surgery Oct 4, 2017. I'm going to use your idea as motivation.

Thanks, & Congratulations on your downsizing as well!

Excellent idea, and you look great as well! Yes, Old Navy love you. They are probably going to give you a call to personally ask you why you don't shop there as much. LOL.
Keep up the hard work, and congratulations on surpassing your goal weight!

what a great visualization!!! Thanks for this morning's inspiration!

This is unbelievable! I'm getting an old jeans out of the give away pile. What a great idea. I haven't bought any jeans to fit me yet but this is motivation to get a pair for now even if I don't have them long.
and CONGRATS!!

I love this idea! I wish I hadn’t already given my bigger clothes away!

Oh this is brilliant!

I am one year out (Surgiversary was Oct 3), and I saw a cool idea I was inspired by, so I saved all my jeans and took an image of them all. Biggest was size 20, smallest (current) size 4. Needless to say I should have taken stock in Old Navy!

I am in the same position. I lost 75 and got pregnant. Then, I gained 30 pounds (not due to pregnancy). I'm on the same mission to get back on track. We are going to do this girl! I'll look up the Facebook page.

Good luck. Sounds like you are on the right track by recommitting. You've got this!

Goal was to loose 100pds the closest I got to that goal was 77pds and over the course I've regained 17pds. I've been enjoying eating bad food even though I'm eating very little so today I've made the decision to STOP THE MADDNESS AND TAKE CONTROL!!!!! I'm beginning the regain maintenance program through the Bariatric 101 plan on FB(they provide a link), drinking more Water and exercising at least 3x out the week(NO MORE BEING LAZY & GREEDY) wish me luck!!

Found some extras ...

Don’t give up on yourself and your journey! ️

That is wonderful. So happy for you. The smile in this pic says it all.

I hit a milestone today I am super excited about!
I have finally lost 300 pounds! I have been stalled the past few months and finally lost those last 6 pounds to hit this milestone! I am so thankful to be making this journey.
It still feels like a dream to me. It's crazy how I went from having to be on oxygen 24/7 and hardly being able to cross a room without getting out of breath to being able to walk for 6 miles and still be ready to go out and do other things!
I am loving life right now and wanted to share my excitement at hitting this milestone with you!
 

I'm curious, whats in your lunch box?
Being sleeved put the brakes on eating out as much as I use to. So, I've found myself packing my lunch waaaaay more than I use to.
I bought a bag that I like and some colorful Portion Control containers. Which helps a lot.
So what have you done to help with packing your lunch? What are your favorites, must have's, cant stands and OMG-I-wish-someone-would-have-told-me-sooner! for your lunch?
Just trying to eat with an open mind and new options.

Well if you didnt want an honest answer/opinion, then why pose the question in the first place? Seems like you are taking the answer put forth too personally. If you dont want honest discussion, thats fine, I will make sure not to respond to your posts.

one thing I was told is that pre op your stomach volume being larger means that you produce more ghrelin (hope spelled right) which causes more frequent hunger. Whereas post op with less stomach you will not feel as much hunger. I'm 3 mos post op and I feel hungry at meal times but not in between. I think making smart coffees is a big key. Even if you can eat 8 to 10 oz of food, think about calories, nutrition, and Protein first. A chicken breast and broccoli would be a better choice than a big Mac and fries. That's where the difference comes into play.
