Soooo happy and relieved!



Recommended Posts

I just got back from Orlando, Fl on vacation with my family, and I hadn't been there since I was a teenager (and much smaller), I was so nervous about not being able to fit on the rides. But I'm more than happy to inform that, not only did I fit, but comfortably, and with plenty of room leftover in all rides. I was able to enjoy every single ride with my family in 5 different parks. I LOVE MY BAND!!!!!:thumbup:

Isn't it amazing!! I had the same experience this past Spring Break. I was so happy to be so much smaller than I was a year ago at that time. Congratulations on your wonderful success!!

That is wonderful!!!! My husband and I are taking our children in Aug and I am hoping that by then I will be down a few sizes too and able to fit into all of the rides with out worry. We went to kings island this past summer and I fit on all the rides but some were a tight squeeze. There were a few I avoided at Cedar Point because they had the seat at the front of the line so that large people could make sure they fit before they waited in line. OMGoodness like there would be anything worse then trying to squeeze my big butt into a small seat infront of tons of people!!! no thanks :cool2: Anyway congrats on your success I am looking forward to my future loss :thumbup:

Thanks, Guys. I once had to leave the superman ride at six flags in front of everyone, I felt humiliated :thumbup:

But now, thanks to my band, those days are long gone.

It has been years since I have gone to Cedar point, but I actually would prefer to try the seat out front, than wait in line all the way up to getting in the car, and having the attendant ask me to leave. I had that happen, and I would much prefer the seat out front from now on.

The good news is I am down almost 80 lbs, and my kids are asking if we can go this summer. If the trend continues, I will schedule something in Aug I think. :thumbup:

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
