I cannot believe 3 months ago this time I was in my hospital room in major pain, but it was all worth it. To date I have lost 62 pounds! It sounds like allot but I have 100 pounds left to go, so I still have a long journey ahead to reach my goal. I work out about 4-5 times a week. Did my first 2 mile marathon 2 weeks ago. I still have not had any bread or pizza since surgery; I did have cake on my Birthday. I think the hardest part, has been with me being opposed with the scale, I weight everyday some days twice just to see. I get mad at the scale when it doesn’t move because I’m thinking, I only had 700 calories today, and it should move everyday lol.

The sleeve has become a lifestyle for me now. My best friend just had to go to a buffet so I went with him (total waste of money for me) and to watch him eat, made me feel a little sick, because I used to eat just like that. I was sick at the fact that I used eat plate after plate and could not see that it was a serious problem. I was looking in the mirror at myself eat 3 months ago. Well, I’m moving right along and will never go back to what I was!

Congratulations!!! Sounds like you are doing a great job!! Keep it going!!!

Well done you done amazing x

I find myself getting repulsed by the way my husband eats. He eats a lot of food and he's diabetic with his blood sugar way out of control. He is always hungry... So I really dislike eating with him now and that makes me really sad. He is a wonderful, supportive hubby who would do anything for me. He is even trying to eat less which is difficult for him. He has the belief that he has to eat everything on his plate and he eats what's left over on mine. So I am taking a lot less food now. Anyways, congrats on losing and thanks for sharing.

Way to go! Congrats!
