Ask and you shall receive! This is from 225 and 127. I’m going for 115-120 now with IF. 💪
I do 99% of my progress photos in that silly little bikini just to track where work still needs to be done. I promise I do wear clothes 😂

5 pounds until I reach my goal weight of 127. Surgiversary November 28th 2018 so plenty of time left to kick these pounds to the curb.
And as always I thank my ex for allowing me to keep using this before photo since it’s the only one of my almost highest weight I have! 😂

Going for 115-120 now that I met and demolished my 127 goal 😂

I picked 127 because I haven't been that weight since I was probably 14 years old--and I think with proper diet and exercise I can easily get there (3lbs away). But 125 is my "HOLY CRUD YOU GOT SKINNY" goal. But for some reason the two pounds between those two goals are daunting!
I just kind of laugh because my doctor told me to aim for 160. xD No thank you.

Hit goal today! 127! Trying for more now that I hit this goal, but very pleased. If you haven’t hit goal yet I am here to tell you it is possible! And even throw in a progress photo from last month(left) to yesterday (right). Even small changes are changes!

For Halloween at work and then friends

I too had the poo issue. Trusted one I shouldn't have while basically sleeping. Rolled over to the other side of the bed and left it 😐 Found the mark the next morning and since this was super new post-op, had to beg my roommate to not ask questions and go wash my sheets downstairs for me xD He was very kind about it (and definitely knew what was up)

I also recently had a very dramatic pity party for myself when I realized that weighing 125 would not be maintainable for me, but 127 probably is...for the near future at least. So I changed my goal again and accepted I *likely* won't be losing the full 100lbs I was trying for. (Me being a total drama queen since my progress is great regardless!)

Well that was fast....hit goal today—127! Now with fasting I’m aiming towards maybe 124, just to see what I can make of this! Healthy BMI chart says I can weigh a healthy 115-158 or something, so I might just put this fasting to the test!. With the new 11-7 hours it’s A LOT more manageable. Who knew dinner was so mentally important to me? 😂

@FluffyChix, this fasting plan has actually helped me get to 124 already! I cannot believe I read this thread for so long without jumping in and trying it. I'm just going to keep riding the wave and see where it takes me!

I still have an aversion to shopping and I'm 3 lbs away from goal. I was fine going to Goodwill a few times earlier on in my journey, but for some reason now that I'm essentially at goal it's like I can't believe it, so I don't go get the new clothes that fit. I don't know how to shop for this smaller body. My co-worker/best friend had to pull me aside a week ago and tell me people were commenting on how baggy my pants were and noticing me pull them up often. I bought a few new pairs and discovered I'm a size 6, maybe close to a 4 at this point. Now that these are the clothes I'll likely be wearing for awhile...I want to buy higher quality items...but replacing a wardrobe is expensive! Hopefully I can get over the mental block at the same time I get over the "spend money" fact

I used to do this at the salad bar too! Mine would be more Protein heavy like diced ham, grilled chicken, hardboiled egg pieces, etc. But that's a good idea to load up on veggies like peppers. Cucumbers I haven't had good luck with. But it's always worth trying again.

So day 1 failed xD I ended up having a dinner at 7pm because I was so darn hungry. My caloric intake ended up being 582 I believe.

So today, I switched it up to having eating hours between 11am-7pm so I can have a real dinner. And also not look like a weirdo to my mother who will be staying with me this weekend (lordhelpme). Being without food for a few hours in the morning really wasn't that bad, so I'm curious to see how the rest of the day goes. I know a grocery run is in my future. My meals today are consisting of Fiber Cereal, 2 Protein Shakes, and tuna with a little light mayo 😐 Protein goal is for sure met. Variety goal...not so much.
