OMG! When I saw your pics I got chills all over! I feel like laughing and clapping and dancing! Woohooo!!! Do you realize how encouraging that is to see!??!

Holy Sh*t!! You look fantastic! OMG. How silly of me... I try to encourage people all of the time, and then I stumble onto a picture like this and suddenly it hits me - THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN! I'm so excited!!!

Congrats on your bandiversary and your awesome success!!! *hugs*

Edited to add:

I came back to say that I see why I was so excited now! I weight 231!! What a difference it makes to get down into Onederland. This next 75 pounds is going to be so stinking awesome!! :rockon:

You Look Great And The scales Do Not Matter What One Person Looks Like At 200 Is Not What Another Does Or Whatever Weight You Are But You Are Fabulous... And If You Feel Good Put The scale In The Garbage... With Your Old Fat Clothes..

Wow, it sure LOOKS like a tonne of weight! Slow is good though. Its healthy and easier to get your head around and when you know you're going to get to goal sooner or later, the pressure to do it fast kind of disappears.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
