Its been a journey since March 9th until now my weight loss has been slow and steady now I feel stronger, lighter, able to concentrate more on short goals. My workouts change every day so that helps me to stay focus. My current weight is 160 lbs from 245 lbs, now my size is a 10 from a 20. One thing that is my encouragement is that I bought a Fitbit to keep going and to motivate me every day you should see me talking it like it's a real person, lol.

You just figured out your weakness wine! No bueno, you can snack but make sure it's a healthy snack and when eating only eat within the 20 minutes or once you start to feel full stop eating and make sure to wait your 30 minutes before drinking. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Before surgery I ordered girl scouts peanut butter cookies. I always support them and buy several boxes, now that I'm eating soft foods I got tempted I ate one cookie and feel guilty. The cookie sang to me, the cookie was so good, back on track one cookie is not stopping me. Just had to share. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Hello all, I've noticed my taste bubs are very sensitive to sweet flavor. When I drink my shakes or protein flavor drink example lemonade I find it too sweet so I add more water. Anyone has the same problem? Don't get me wrong, I'm a water person, but once in a blue I like something sweet. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Wondering, I know I was a challenge for my surgeon he did a gastric bypass, Heller myotomy fundoplication. He said it was hard to get in because it was very little space to move around because of my spine fusion, things inside where not in it's place. So I wonder if he had to find a different ways to get in. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app
