GOAL ! ! ! (not the field goal type)



Recommended Posts

Today marks an amazing day in my journey to a healthier, happier, and more active life. :w00t:

I'm below goal:thumbup1: ! ! ! I have been eating more every day, and I'm not sure how this all works, but here I am today at 149.

I bought a size 12 pants and they are too big. My 14's were getting a little big so I figured a 12 would be just perfect. I'm taking them back to exchange them for 10's which I know I won't be able to get into completely comfortably.

I'm about 5 days short of my 7 month post-op mark. I really can't believe I'm at goal.

Now here's to maintaining ! ! ! Cheers

:001_wub:I love my sleeve :bored0:

WHOO HOO!!!!! Way to go Tiffany!!!! I hope to be at goal by my 7 month mark too. :lol0:

Congratulations Tiffy!

I bet you'll be in a size 8 before too long without even trying.

Congrats! Your rock! I remember this feeling (back when I had the band, and almost made it to goal - but did make it to a size 8/10), I could barely get my mind around it... I remember shopping while still losing, and I always thought I was a bigger size than I actually was... It was a mind-f every time I had to shop... I would still go back to the size 14 or 16 or 18. Or a large or XL. And was always shocked, and almost confused in a way, that I was a Medium shirt, or a size 10 pants. Did you ever go through this? Perhaps I am nuts (ok, I am, but you know..). LOL

Congrats on an AMAZING milestone! YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ohmy::w00t::wink0::thumbup::scared0:

Thank you bunches, and yes, I go through that every time I shop.

Recently, I was holding up some slacks, and the associate said 'ma'am, those are not going to fit you'. I said " oh I know, I was just browsing" She said "try these, and handed me a size 10" I just laughed at her, and said "those won't work just yet" I bought the 12s and they are too big. I still have to return them, and go back for the 10s.

It is a total mind-f***, some days I just can't wrap my head around all of it.

      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! 😞
