90 pounds gone, 47 to go!



Recommended Posts

In just 7 months (almost to the day, my 7 month anniversary of my surgery will be 7/28). I have lost 90 pounds. I can't believe I'm just 10 pounds away from triple digits.

In honor of that, I've updated my signature ticker (which hadn't been updated since I was at 261), I also edited my profile pictures and added some more current pictures of me.

I'm attaching a picture to show what you can accomplish in 7 months.

Great. Thanks for the picture and hope that can happen. Would like to know if you have any flabby loose skin since losing so much weight. It is not noticeable from your picture. How were you able to accomplish that.

First I would like to say thanks to all the well wishes. It's been a long journey, and i still have a ways to go.

To answer your question, yeah I do have a lot of extra skin, on my back and stomach and thighs. It's really annoying because when I'm clothed and standing up it hangs and makes me look faster than I am (almost like a perpetual muffin top), and when I bend over it hangs from me.

I added some pictures from about 10 to 15 pounds ago. You can see the muffin top effect and the way it hangs. But it will hopefully go away within the next few years, I'm pretty young and my skin has been taken care of pretty well.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
