Big scale Victory.

I'm not one to weigh very often.

Normally only when i go in for a fill.

My last fill was mid July.

Well, I've been visiting my daughter and her family and decided to try her scales this morning.

I was afraid I had gained a couple pounds.......but........to my surprise i was down 12.5 lbs from my last fill.

needless to say i was so pleasantly surprised.

that makes me down 71 lbs since jan/10 and only 20-25 lbs to go. I know they will come off slowly but they will come off.

For those of you just starting this journey, keep your chin up and the little we do every day will make a big big difference in the months to come.

Congrats! Amazing that you've been able to stay off the scale; I've gotta be on it once a week.

Don't want to bust your bubble, but different scales will weigh you differently. I can weigh at home.. then go directly to the gym, no eating or drinking and weigh again, wearing the same clothes and be 3 lbs different.

You are doing great! If your not excersising already, it will help those last 20 pounds fade away. If you are, you may want to up the intensity. It has worked for me in getting those last 10 pounds off.

That was my point.. albeit I expressed myself badly... that the loss might not be 12.5 lbs. It might be 20lbs. It might be 8.

I just didn't want the OP to get home and get all depressed if the numbers weren't as good on the home scale.

Congrats on the loss.. whatever the number is. :(

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
