5 Months, 60 Pounds Down, Onederland! (With Pic)

  • Popular Post

The first number on my scale this morning was a 1, yay!!!! It has not been a 1 in five years so I'm super happy today! My weight loss hasn't been as quick as some others but I am so happy with the progress I have made. I love my sleeve!

I weighed 260lbs 1 week before my surgery, 251 on the day of surgery, and 199 today. My weight loss slowed after the 2nd month, I now lose about 8 pounds a month (which I will gladly take!!!)

I did have a ton of hairloss but it has stopped or at least slowed greatly. I do take my Vitamins everyday along with Biotin and Iron. I feel like my weight loss is coming off differently than in the past when I've slimmed down before having kids. I am holding a ton of weight in my belly still. I don't really notice a ton of sagging skin but my eyes have more wrinkles from where my face has lost fat. Oh well!

I try to get my fluids and Protein in, it's getting harder since I get more food than Protein drinks, but I try for at least one Protein Drink per day. I really like EAS myoplex, Adkins, and Slim Fast protein. I hate the juice protein drinks. I hope to lose another 60 pounds by next March. Good luck all!!! Happy losing!

Thanks everyone. I saw my family doctor yesterday and she was very pleased with my progress. I'm a slower loser do I tend to get discouraged easily. I know I would never have lost 62 pounds this easily prior to surgery.

First, I really looked, and I couldn't find a single wrinkle. Just a big smile on a transforming woman. You look fabulous right now--cheering you on for the rest of the journey!!! Great achievement. Congratulations! DeterminedGirl

You look great!!!!! Can't wait to hit onederland next year :)

ONEderful!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking good!

You are an encouragement!
