One pound away!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Holy moly!!! I didn't think I'd ever be able to say this so quickly!!!! at just over 3 months out........

I am ONE pound away from my original goal of 160!!!!!

I know from looking in the mirror that I Still have a ways to go, so I've reset my ticker to lose more. But I truly thought I was dreaming to ask to hit the 160s.

My strategy was to mix things up all the time. I try to stay around 30-40 carbs each day. But I don't fret if I'm over, because there are other days I'm under. I go to the gym hardcore for a couple weeks, then go down to a few days a week to recover. I mainly just try to keep my body guessing. So far it's worked well for me. I have a 5k run in a couple weeks. Not sure if I'm going to be able to run the whole thing, but I'm certainly going to try.

For any of you out there thinking and researching this surgery.......just do it!!! It's truly one of the best things that has happened to me. And not just on the outside. I am more upbeat and confident in myself. I'm even looking at buying the bakery I work at to run it!!! Any business owners out there that can give me some advice??? : )

      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! 😞
