4 more pounds down, uhh wasn't even trying.



Recommended Posts

Ok, I held steady over the holiday season. I weighed myself a couple days after Christmas and I had not gained a single pound (that felt like a victory itself). I fell off the exercise wagon but I have stayed very active and busy. Then I decided to weigh last friday just to see where I was and I have lost 4 more pounds since Christmas without doing a dang thing other then not having the access to the holiday goodies. I weighed again today to make sure it wasn't some sort of fluke and nope I weighed 4 pounds less then Christmas.

I went to my hubby and asked him how the heck he thought that happened. He looked at me like I was retarded and said "uhh you don't eat very much"? Then he proceeded to ask me what I ate the day before and when I started going over the last 3 or 4 days I realized he is right. I mean I don't know when my head hunger finally slowed down. It must have been sometime through the holidays when I just stopped thinking about food a ton. I remember posting something about head hunger and thinking of taking an appetite suppressant then here it is a month or 6 weeks later and I realize I may get a craving for something but I just don't eat that much. It is amazing, it is simple but amazing. I have a hard time wrapping my head around it. I knew that was why I was having the surgery but I think it took a little longer for me to adjust physically and mentally to it all.

So enough rambling. I just was in awe of my sleeve and my results. It is awesome to think I can spend the rest of my life eating like I do, feeling satisfied and maintaining a healthy body. Hopefully this motivates someone, hell it has motivated me.

Isn't it just amazing? I can't wait until I get to my goal and can go through my life without panicking about gaining all of the weight back like in the days of old :-)

Congrats....I have been in a stall for this past week, stuck at 188. After having a great meeting with the nutritionist for my 6 week followup and she documented an average of 4.5 lbs a week and now nothing. But I have not gained and hopefully the weather will warm up so I can get out and walk some more.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
