1St Personal Goal Achieved!



Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

Wanted to share my exciting news!

I reached my 1st personal goal today! I always weigh in on Friday mornings however today I was going for a fill number 7 and wanted to take note on how close my scale was to the doctors.

When I decided to have lapband, banned on Nov 21, 2012 weighing 260 I set my goal to weigh 200 pounds however that quickly changed and didnt want to be in the 200s. I wanted to be 199. I have been working my tail off to reach that point and this morning I stepped on the scale looked down and it read 198.0! I said WHAT! Stepped off and right back on again! And sure enough there it was 198.0...I stood there on the scale and cried tears of happiness. I havent weighed anywhere close to 198 since my early early teens.

62 lbs GONE!

If YOU believe in YOU anything is possible!

:P

      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! 😞
