Recommended Posts

I would like to join too!

CW. 226.6

GW 210

I have been losing slowly recently

Goals

64 oz in daily & increase Protein intake

Start working out - so tired that I haven't started yet

CW 216.6 down 10# since start of challenge! Yay!!!

Going to the gym tomorrow And doing a bit better on my protein and liquid intake. Looks like it may have been out of my control why i have had so many problems with getting in food and liquid. Had my 3 mos check up yesterday and dr said sleeve is narrowing, so I go back in on the 10th for egd if I still am feeling the same restriction and acid.

I finally lost something this week! Apparently I have to push really hard physically. My last two stalls finally broke with serious physical exercise. The first time was with a 5 hour hike. This time it was with a mini Tri on sat. My right knee is not so happy, but yay scale movement!

SW: 164 CW: 161 GW: 149

What the F was I thinking when I set that goal weight?!?! Sheesh

Well, finally back down a little.

Starting Weight 7/4: 275

Today's Weight 7/23: 268.8

Goal Weight 9/2: 260

I seem to be in this cycle of losing for a few days in a row then gaining a little of it back over a few days and then maintaining and then losing. Kind of strange, but as long as I lose more than I gain, then I guess the scale is still going the right direction. I really hope that the goal of 260 is attainable. It should be, who knows, maybe I can even get to 250 which would be amazing. It would be 100 down from my highest weight and 77 from the beginning of my pre-op diet on the 14th of April.

Well not too successful a week! I gained back two of the three and a half pounds that I lost the first week :angry: Back on track for now... was eating out a lot and not exercising. Remember, as Roseanne says, "The only one who can defeat me is me!"

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
