Honestly I have not done much as far as weights specific to my arms, I did a lot of dance classes and Zumba. What you can't see is the loose skin under the cap sleeve, I think I'll need and arm tuck but thankfully I have lost weight pretty evenly, I just recommend a lot of water. I have 10 - 15 glasses a day it helps a lot.

Thanks so much, I must say I've been a little discouraged lately since it is getting a lot harder to loose weight which is expected but having posted these pictures has put things into better perspective.

Here's mine, down 147lbs so far.

Dinora what do u eat

You look great....When were you sleeved and what is the time frame of your almost thre pic.

To be honest I eat most everything at this point, but I am totally aware of what I put in my body. I try sticking to the protein first and no drinking liquids 1/2 hr before eating and an hour after. I do however drink only non calorie drinks mostly water10-15 glasses a day, coffe black, an occasional no carb no calorie redbull (not best choice I also do wine instead of beer (I know alcohol is bad but I'm only human). Fish lots of fish and chicken always protein first. I do have carbs but no where near as much as before and my portions are always small that part the sleeve takes care of, I do have sugars in tiny portions, I know some might criticize that but I have to be realistic and honestly this journey is not about never eating again it's about being conscious of what you eat and in control, not have food control you. Oh and exercise it finally makes sense to me how important exercise is, and I try my hardest sometimes it's 5-7 times a week sometimes only 3 but still a work in progress and I try to remind myself everyday how I must be responsible for my mind and body.

Sorry if I went on a tangent
