I know my one year update is a little late, but still wanted to chime in and say how great everyone is doing! The last few pounds are so hard to lose, I still have 10 lbs to go to meet my goal weight, but I will get there. I really wanted to reach that goal by my wedding date, but I didn’t get there. It’s hard not to get discouraged or become unmotivated, but when I think about where I was a year ago, I’ve come a long way and I have to push through. I know I can do it. Positive mindset is key! Here are progress pictures. Hopefully soon I can add when I meet my goal weight (fingers crossed)!

Went to a wedding today and I didn’t run away from the camera too much. Here’s a before and after (183lbs vs 142lbs):

Had to get dressed up for a wedding today, so I wanted to share. It’s been awhile since I had to wear something nice, but I did it!

I am not a natural icy blonde and have been getting root touch ups per my regular schedule (every 4-6 weeks). I have noticed my scalp has been a little bit more sensitive, but I don’t think I’m losing any more hair because of the processing than I was already losing because of wls.

I use benefiber in my drinks if I remember to. But usually 1 ducolax once a week is all I need. I find it not too harsh and I feel tons better after going.

I have lost 41 lbs since being sleeved 10/13/17. I feel like the loss rate has been sooooo slow and had to overcome a few stalls. I have 25 lbs still to lose to hit my ultimate goal weight. But I have 7 months to lose that weight to make my goal. I did a face transformation comparison the other day for myself. Needed to see the change to remind myself that even though I feel like the loss is slow, there is still loss. Sleeved 10/13/17 SW 183 CW 142 GW 118

You look great!

Congratulations!

Good luck!

Man, I should update more often. I am down 40lbs now, 23lbs to reach my ultimate goal weight. I was feeling like there wasn’t much difference to be seen, so I did a face comp for before surgery and every ten pounds lost...and now I can see it.

I missed last week’s weigh in, but this morning (12/13) I am at 155. GW 147 (this seems so far away!)

Awesome!
