Great job my friend. You rock!!

GURL if I confessed all the times I have slipped we would need a new forum. lol The good thing for me is I got really sick from overeating when I did so I learned the hard way to NOT DO IT lol I have cheated a bit.....a bite of pizza, a sliver of pie, on special occasions. we all do. anybody who says the don't might be fibbing lol

Congratulations !!! You’ve got a great “can do” attitude and I predict your going to do marvelously 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Yay! Welcome to your new life. Seize it with both hands and don't look back!!

Hey everyone!

So had my surgery today all is going well so far other then the discomfort of all the gas still in my body (just feels like I have to burp but I can’t) I’ve gotten up to walk a couple times so far to keep the blood moving. I have to stay at the hospital for night, unknown when I can get the scan to check to make sure there’s no leakage but it’s already 10pm so I assume it’ll wait until tomorrow. Quite annoying because all I can have is ice chips until then, Water isn’t allowed.

Onto the road to a brand new life!

**BEFORE/AFTER PICS!** I met my ultimate goal of 100 lbs. lost today! I'm so happy! It's been quite the journey and is still a struggle almost daily but it feels great to look back at the last 9 1/2 months and see how far we've all come. No more losing for me here forward. Now I can gain a few and be ok as I have a maintenance range of 7 lbs. that I plan to strictly stick to and this is my lowest that I'll go. From a size XXL Tops/18-20 jeans I'm now in size XS/Small Tops and size 4 jeans. I feel amazing and the best part is, I have the energy and can play with my kids with ease. Here, I slid down the slide this week at the park that I got stuck on last year. In celebration, I'll be updating my YouTube channel tomorrow and doing a big GIVEAWAY for anyone interested in subbing and following me along there. Hoping everyone is doing amazing on their journeys!

Hi there, are you taking your Vitamins? Reason that I asked is you stated that your skin looks bad. If you are not start back but I agree with the others for your height that seems to be a healthy normal weight. And yes find another bariatric center in your area to get the help that you need.
I wish you the best.

My guess is the move has your nerves frazzled and you need to get back on your Vitamin regimen. I wouldn't try to gain if I were you. Hang in there.

Wha? Why would you EVER quit? No wonder you feel like you're dying. I'd go to the doctor and get my blood drawn for Vitamin test...

I was in the big and tall section, looking for just a tall shirt was a specific reason. The salesperson didn't think I belonged there.

I was also told that I'll have to take Vitamins for life...weird, indeed.

During my pre OP class last week the nurse and dietitian spent equal amount of time talking about how important Vitamins are as they did on Protein. As a matter of fact I've already started taking B12 liquid. I will be sleeved on April 29th.

I was told yes, Vitamins for life.

I was told yes, take Vitamins for life because you cannot eat enough volume to get everything from food.

Oh that's odd. My surgeon and I'm sure many others say YES to Vitamins for life.
