    GreenTealael reacted to Orchids&Dragons in Today I actually looked small to myself! This is the lowest weight of my adult life..   
    That must have felt amazing! Congrats! I certainly haven't felt "small" yet, but I did start seeing myself as more "normal" looking last week. I felt like I'd crossed the threshold of people seeing me and not immediately thinking "Wow, she's huge!"

    See, I had to check on that nakedness in Panera myself, lol. You look great, we all have those nekkid skin issues.I will need major ps. I did read that it can improve with time. My old Weight Watchers leader said hers smoothed out alot after 6 years. At my age I'm not waiting 6 years to find out. Do whatever you need to to make yourself more comfortable even if it's more slicing n dicing.

    I think you look great! Give your skin a bit more time before you get too hung up on plastics. Even losing slowly, you've lost a lot of weight in a short time!

    GreenTealael got a reaction from Orchids&Dragons in Protein bars are evil. I've been on the go so much that it's been my go to meals late   
    For me they appear to be, I wasn't big on them until recently so that may be a factor, but Im counting them amoung my high calories low restriction food groups and I want to monitor how often I eat these items.

    I remember that day myself, walking around outside waiting on wife at doctor and turned corner and saw myself in mirrored office window. Stopped me in my tracks cause i think that was the first time i really saw i was not the same size.

    I’m being honest, just...not the most up-to-date. I WAS 249 a week ago, I promise! Ticker doesn’t need to know I was 250 today.

    Vegetarian isn't too hard since you can have whey protein shakes, eggs, dairy. Veganism is much harder since the vegan-friendly shakes are less palatable and you have to be extra cautious about getting complete proteins.

    I had VSG on July 26th and I too have locs (sisterlocks). I have a lot of hair so I'm not sure if I'm losing hair. I don't wash my own hair. I go to the shop. My hair still looks healthy. Just make sure you take your "B" vitamins. My beatician said that this is a very important vitamin for hair loss. Good luck to you!
