Recommended Posts

Cherice & Julia, great job as always!!! Fantastic!!! Myself I just have to keep pushing on. I haven't lost any weight in the last 2 days but it's because I've been craving salt... ugghh!! One of these times I'll be able to just ignore those cravings! Oh well I cannot be mad at myself because I've lost 6 Lbs since last Wednesday.

Some other good things of note is I'm starting to get into 12's now and Medium tops are fitting really good lately. Also I've shaved the "Morbidly" off my "Obese" title!!! Yippeeee!!!!

I must stay strong!!!

Wow!!! Irene, that is crazy!!! 6 pounds is incredible!! Congratulations! :D

Cherice, great job with the consistent weight loss -- it's nice that you've been very steady about it -- and only 15 more pounds till goal!! WOW!! blink.gif that is truly awesome!

I lost 2.2 lbs. this week -- so nice and easy -- it's been weird not to stair step for the past couple of weeks, but I'm taking it! Looking forward to another good week :)

Labrys here...

Sorry for the absenteeism. I have been on a stall and well, its been difficult to face. But... I am back on wagon sort to speak.

It feels good to see some change in my weight. I am being blessed by angels today. Good to see your posts.

Hey Labrys, I really know how you feel -- I think I had a 3 or a 4 week stall back in November and it was soooo hard. But luckily, with the sleeve, I was able to plug along -- I'm glad you're seeing a change in your weight. :) I think that the biggest kudos go to those who face a stall for multiple weeks and keep on doing what they need to do -- so good for you!! :)

Well, I think I jinked myself. For the first time EVER I actually went up. I did eat a lot of "crap" food this past week, but it is still a shock considering all the exercising I did. I will get back on the wagon this week. I may just be getting to the point where I have to work for it a little harder. We'll see.

Here are my stats this week:

HW 248

SW 230

Last week-160.1

This Week-161.5

Lost this week-Big, fat nothing!

Hey Cherice! :) I forgot to post last week -- whoops! huh.gif

Well, last week, I lost my 100 pounds -- was down to 203.2. This week, I lost another 3 pounds and am now at 200.2 lbs. I can smell onderland :)

I was kinda hoping for 199 something today, but maybe tomorrow :)

Good job with the pound and a half :) You are almost at 90 lbs. lost!!! incredible :D

Labrys here...

Just checking in.

WTG Jul!!

Well, I have not gotten on the scale for a while as I have been in process of selling my home. Got an offer yesterday. I feel as though I may be losing, but still mainly on a plateau.

Loving my sleeve. Its difficult not to run up to people who apparently need some help with weight and not take them by the shoulders, shake, and say "Listen to me!" But.... that's not appropriate. I'll tell who in curious and seeking.

much love to all of you

OMG Julie CONGRATULATIONS!!!! You are definitely the biggest loser here!

:party4:

Labrys...congratulations on the offer on your house! We just closed on a rental property we've had for sale for a LONG time. It was quite a relief to be out from under it.

Here are my stats this week:

HW 248

SW 230

Last week-159.1

This Week-156.4

Lost this week-2.7

Hope to be hitting the big 100 in the next month myself :D

Ok September Peeps --we've got to get back on the ball again!

I had a lousy last week in the sense that the scale was not my friend -- up down up down. I don't think I lost anything.

But this week, I dropped 3 lbs for some odd reason. soo . . . I guess the dithering on the scale was worth it.

The thing I'm worried about now that I'm within 30 lbs of my goal is how much slower this is going to be . . . I HATE SLOW!! I'm not a very patient person :lol:

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I want to be at GOAL NOW!! I want to not think about the scale or think about what I'm doing, I want to just be there, ya know what I mean?? It's not about the eating (I kind of have that down to a science), it's just the not wanting to worry about whether I've exercised enough or whether that cracker I ate will magically add 3 pounds, ya know?? sigh.

But I can't complain too much -- I've done really well in little over than 6 months -- I can keep going another 6 months if that's what it takes! :)

Labrys here....

To be truthful, my attention has not been on weight loss for the past few weeks. I am in process of selling my home which of course means packing and looking for a new place, Without going into too much detail, some things have changed and I will be taking the house off the market.

Now that it is decided, I'll be doing some exercise etc and hopefully the weight will begin to fall again. I'm down about 3 pounds since my last post.

Best to everyone.

Happy 6th month anniversary to all you fellow September sleevers! Progress report - I am at my goal, but am not eating like I should. I was almost perfect (really) during the loosing stage and then let one or two old habits back in. Still have not touched a soda or In N Out burger but I may be seen eating an occasional fast food taco...all of it and maybe a french fry or two.

Dang, need to focus on health right now. Will you nag me? I did not get the sleeve as a self payer to screw this up. ARGH, where is my determination?

Hi all -- fairly decent week for me. I'm down 1.8 lbs. Not huge, but TOM is fast approaching, so I'll take what I can get.

It's been raining a lot here, and today I'm substitute teaching (eating lunch now), so no golf for me. wah! I'll have to do some Zumba with my Wii or something.

Otherwise, everything is going great -- today I am officially 110 pounds down! :D Pretty happy about that! Hope all is going well with everyone else!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
