OK, so I have 30.6 to lose, well thats close enough. I am at 5 months, and tomorrow is my 58th Bday. I can eat almost anything, and tonight at my Bday party with my folks, I think I did! I went to a salad bar, and ate up, then my folks brought a chocolate cake, and I had part of a small piece, then ate some more when I got home. I was feeling pretty cheaty...and decided to man up and write everything down and keep accountable even if I was going hog wild. 1178 cals. You know, I think I can live with that kind of hog wild once in a while. I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!

My Protein was only at 60 and my carbs were high (like 110!) but tomorrow is another day, and I will take the leftover cake to work and let them scarf it down and get it out of my face. I have been testing the Water a little bit more than I should at this point, I really want to eat around 900-1000 a day... I do work out 5 days a week, and feel pretty strong, so perhaps that amount is not too bad. I am losing around 7 pounds a month right now...things are going pretty slow, but that can still get me to goal in 4-5 months at this rate.... How about you guys?

How many calories a day?

How many days of exercise a week?

How many pounds a month at this point?

Good luck girls and boys on the last 30 or less!

Hello Kim, or Feedyoureye.

Welcome on board.

What is your picture? Is it a steak or a slice of beef? Just wondering!

I am not going to answer any of your questions as I have hit a stall for the past 6 months.

I need to be re-programmed.

Happy Birthday!

Thanks Brookleen, My pic is a painting I did of a piece of meat. You can see more of my work at feedyoureye.com if you like.

Good luck with your fresh approach at the last few pounds! K

So today I tightened up the food a bit, no sugar, gave the cake away, low fat snack and pretty clean. Also went to dance class as usual. My move is to eat Protein Snacks instead of junk snacks as a start, and try to bring down the calories by 50-100.

OK , on June 14th I was about 30 pounds out... today on November 7th I am about 10 pounds out... I mentioned I was feeling a little cheatiy...well now I just call it normal life. I watch a little, I have what i want a little, I write it all down, and I lose. Its fantastic. Lately I have added some carbs (90-140 a day) , and calories and it jump started my losing again. I'm up to about 11-1400 cals a day, 60-80 Proteins, 4-5 days exercise. Love it.

Thanks girlfriend! I am 2 1/2 pounds from NORMAL. (as if losing 2 1/2 pounds could make me normal!) And look at you! It's the home stretch for us both!

I am going out tonight, and Im all dressed up and feeling really great about how I look, and how I feel. Feeling like I look better is the greatest added side effect of an insurance paid medical procedure I could imagine.

Ha! Its taken me two months to lose 3 pounds! Oh well, its in the right direction at least! Notice how I put these!!!!!!at the end of every sentence?!

I did have a 5 week stall and gained about 4 pounds over the holidays, and managed to still lose 3 pounds in the last two months. OK? OK!

      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! 😞
