One year ago today took the first step to change my life. I got the lapband and started my journey to loose weight and change my life. The last year has been a challenge to say the least but today I stand here 115 pounds lighter and amazed with all I accomplished this year. I started my journey at 314lbs. Today I weigh 199lbs' date=' and still aiming for goal:)[/quote']

Congratulations! You look fabulous!!!

wow wow wow!!!

You look incredible!

BTW' date=' I noticed you don't have loose skin on your arms, did you do anything in specific? toning or anything?[/quote']

Thank you! Since the very beginning I have been going to the gym 5-6 days a week doing a combination of strength training and cardio. I do have loose skin but it really isn't that bad. As far as weights go I work with a personal trainer and learned a whole bunch of whole body exercises that I enjoy. I change it up all the time!

Awesome! Thanks for sharing & congrats! To see that scale under 2...anything is amazing! Please share any tips or encouragement for us that are just beginning our journey :)

Hi Nicole- this journey has probably been the hardest things I've ever done and stuck with. I'm 25 and there's always temptations! I do struggle daily still but I lean on my friends for support. The feeling of success is worth it! I started going to the gym very early in my journey and built a strong support system there. I truly believe that working out has helped me so much. You can do it! If you need anything or just need to talk , message me

I started going to the gym very early in my journey. I workout about5-6 days a week for about 1- 1 1/2 hours and it has truly made a difference in my weight loss. I have been doing a combination of strength training and cardio. It's crazy the things I couldn't do in the beginning but can do now!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
