6 months and 3 weeks ago. I was a huffing, puffing, size 24 wearing, 286 lb weighing miserable woman...today I weighed in at 186.2!!, 100 lbs gone and so much more, gone are the size 24's replaced with 12's (I have a lot of muscle!), I don't huff and puff anymore, I can run!, food does not consume my days or my thoughts anymore and I'm happy!! not miserable....If you are struggling or just starting out...I'm just a normal person, my band isn't magic, I follow the rules and respect my band, you can too :)

Congrats on your milestone!!!! I am happy for you. I'm going through changes and rolling with the punches too. I hope my family and friends can too. I have ups and downs, but to see someone else in my shoes too is comforting. I have lost 100 lbs in 6mos and facing friends and family lately was harder than losing the weight. I never prepared for the mental part of it all. I'm glad you shared your post, if just to help me realize why I did this to begin with. Good luck in the future, wish you well. :)

Awesome!!!! I recently passed the 100 lb milestone myself & know while it is an amazing feeling it can also be emotionally confusing at times too. I took a much slower road to the 100 lbs since life got complicated along the way. I lost 85 lbs quickly, then put back 20lbs but now have been heading down again and am up to losing 107.5lbs

You are doing an amazing thing for yourself & believe me your head, body, heart & soul will all be on the same page before you know it!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
