Ok have to ask the 27th of what month? And congrats!!

I was sleeved on the 27th of April.

Okay guys...Sleeved on the 27th at 330lbs' date=' but my highest weight was 346lbs. I am only 18lbs away from wonderland! I'm currently standing at 217lbs with a total loss of 129lbs. OMG!

Let's see if I can get to 170lbs. I'm 5'6 so I'd be totally fine with that weight. My brother saw me recently and asked if I was in the 100's already. Wow what a compliment! I told him I was 217 and he said you don't look it. So at 170 I know I'll be just fine!

My life is so exciting and full of expectations, and goals. And it's all because of my decision to take control of my life, and get the sleeve. Best decision yet!! Thank you GOD![/quote']

April need to exercise more

Well, it's time to fess up! Who had a wonderful holiday, hands up . Who was naughtly and ate foods that were really yummy but bad for you, hands up! Who put on a couple of pounds, hands up. Who is now having a problem getting back on the bandwagon, hand ups!

I weighed in on Jan. 1st and I gained 2 lbs! I find that now after having lost 50 plus lbs. that I can eat more at one meal and I get hungrier, sooner. Has anyone else found this to be true? I also noticed that while eating all those delicious bad carbs, that my BM's were really hard! :wub: I am back on the bandwagon, but the honeymoon is over and my appetite is back along with all the original cravings that I had before the surgery. I'm glad that I kept up my exercise routine, otherwise I might have gained more. I'm hoping for a lose next Tues. when I weigh in again. I'll let you know.

How is everyone else doing after the holidays?

I finally hit onderland! Down 81 lbs since surgery, about 90 overall. Happy new year! About 20 lbs to goal, but I am not stressing myself out over it. I enjoy going to the gym 2-4 times a week and take everything day by day. I still have my struggles but I don't beat myself up when I slip. Overall I feel blessed to have had my sleeve and the tool that gave me my life back.

Thank you! You seem to be doing an awesome job as well! I'm currently sitting at 210 lbs. I think when I reach 199 lbs I'll Celebrate. I haven't been in the one's since I was 15.

Do you exercise at all? It's hard for me to get started most days, but I do it faithfully.. Some days I walk 5 miles and others 2. As long as I'm moving each day that's what's important to me.

Hey April buddies!

Just wanted to post my 9month pics. These are a good side-by-side comparison from day of surgery until now. It's been really helpful to see the progress this way. I've been in a stall for the last 6 weeks or so, but I'm still losing inches, so that's good. I'm training for a sprint triathlon on April 27th (1 year and 1 week from surgery date), so I've been working out a lot. It's a little frustrating that the cellulite is still so prevalent, but hopefully that will go away soon. There's also a lot of loose skin to work around, but hey, better than the fat it once covered, right?

Is anyone else training for an athletic event? I'm having trouble keeping the carbs to a minimum when I'm working out so much. I'd love some sports nutrition ideas if anyone knows of any.

Thanks! Hope everyone is well!!
