Well Hello Sweet Peas!



Recommended Posts

Hello a few of you have asked me to share my success story and how I have been able to maintain 144 lb weight loss for the past 4 years with no extra skin. Although my story may not be the same for you all I was fortunate enough to not have a lot of excess skin. I am a firm believer in weight training and resistance training consistency is key!! We all fail, we all have bad days do not!!! Beat yourself up.. just pick up where you left off.. I would be more than happy to sen you a copy of my sample work out and meal plan. “a day in the life of G” Love you all

That was then!!! This is now!!!! Love you all!

You look amazing, congratulations.

But, keep in mind that some people are going to have excess skin no matter how much they weight train or work out. Whether or not someone has excess skin comes down genetics, age, skin elasticity, whether or not someone smokes, how much weight they lose and how long they have been overweight. It's unfortunate but if any number of these factors are working against you, there is nothing you can do about the excess skin except plastic surgery.

Best wishes.

I agree!

That is why I said my results may not be the same for everyone. I smoked for years and have been overweight my entire life, I would love the surgery on my arms. But I don’t blame anything on genetics etc... it’s all an excuse sorry it is. That’s the same excuse I used when I was FAT. All results vary I do agree with that. But I did have a lot!!! of excess skin on my stomach. I do a rigorous crunch session every day. No excuses I work very very hard, I tried this last step before getting a Tummy Tuck. It worked.

      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! 😞
