Started this journey Nov 1st 2012

Started 266

Currently 176

That's a total loss of 90 pounds. I stalled for almost two months and just started seeing the scale go down. I eat under 1000 calories a day. I'm wearing med to large shirts and 12-14 pants. My tummy seems to be holding on a long as possible. I need to get into the gym and start toning. Overall pretty darn happy with my new life :)

Work it mama! Ur so pretty too. Keep on losn, ur doing gr8!!!

Still mostly stalled.... Anyone else wonder about when the belly fat (gut) will catch up with the other areas? Seems like everywhere is getting smaller BUT my belly!

Ugh...I've been wondering that myself:-(

I am 15 pounds from my surgeon's goal 135 which was mine too but I changed mine to 130 I don't think my gut is going to go with that 15 lbs I am thinking I may need to be 120 for it to be gone? Idk I honestly do have large bone structure even though I am short (my wrist bones are HUGE) I am 5'2.5 I would be pretty skinny at 120 I think but we shall see....

I am stalled but I am retaining Water cause I am very close to my time of the.month...went shopping tonight and put on size 14 shorts didn't get them cause they were a bit baggy and I am very close to being in a 12!!!! Also got a swim suit...size 14 bottoms had to do a size 16 top because of the girls but I was happy. As soon as I am done with school this week (I am a teacher) I am making it my goal to go to the gym every morning, trying to tone my upper thighs and tummy

I have been on 1000-1200 cals a day for just that reason...I am always hungry but the good thing is I can satisfy it with next to nothing...I used to eat 2500+ cals a day easily and still felt hungry.

      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!!
