55 lbs down.. halfway or so to goal PICS!



Recommended Posts

Well, I am down into the 180s amazingly enough and I feel wonderful! Yesterday was Easter and I wore a dress that I bought about a month or so ago. It was snug then, but fits perfectly now : ) My grandma wouldn't stop telling me how amazing I looked, which was so sweet but kinda made me uncomfortable. I am not usually shy about accepting compliments but yesterday I had my aunt tell me that she didn't recognize me when I walked into church, my grandma oohing and ahhing, and my uncle told me I look like a model (ok, laying it on thick, but God bless him! lol).

So I have never postd pics here and I'd like to share some from yesterday, 56 lbs down, and about 50 more to go!

The reason I added this last one is because before surgery, if I had seen a pic like this taken of me I would have been horrified at all the rolls..... and now I can only see one and I attribute it to my pantyhose :P

Thanks for looking and sharing in my joy! :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
