Feb 2012- How Are You Doing?



Recommended Posts

My surgery was 2/4 and I am down 76 lbs. The weight loss has been slow for the last few weeks but I haven't been in the gym as much as before. I am trying to get through a busy time at work and get back on my program. My goal was to lose 100 lbs in 6 months but I was 24 lbs away. So my new goal is to do it by month 9.

I had surgery a few,days after you. You're doing alot better than me and I am exercising daily. It's been really slow.

I was sleeved the 28th of Feb. I have lost 49lbs. I see so many others on here around the same date as mine and they are blowing me out of the Water. Am I doing something wrong?

Looking good girl. I started at a size 16 and now I am in a 10. So yes progress has definetly been made. I guess I am just impatient. I am stepping up my Water, Protein and exercise. We will get to where we need to be. Good Luck!

I don't think so. We're all different. I blame my slowness, on 1) revision band to sleeve 2) started at a lower BMI 3) thyroid and 4) just my metabolism in general, I've always been a slow loser. I'm happy with my results even though it's taken a lot longer than I thought it would.

I was sleeved 2/23 and I'm down 51 pounds from 226 to 175 and that's not exercising as much. It felt so good to hit the onezees ;•} I have been able to eat just about everything. The only thing I'm afraid to try is bread which was my weakness especially garlic bread. it's okAy I don't need it anyway. The only complication I have had was I had to have my gallbladder removed a few weeks ago. As soon as I'm feeling better I have vowed to start going to the gym more. I bought the Insanity workout would like to challenge myself for 30 days I'll see I heard it's a beast....wish me luck I know I'm going to need it.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
