You look great! I started at 310lbs and I'll be 5 months out next Thurs so it's great to see that weight is attainable in a year :). What is your monthly losses?

I sent you a friend request on myfitnesspal. I eat a lot of fish and chicken and fresh fruits and veggies. If I have to have Pasta or bread, it's always whole grain or whole wheat. I do not do any of the white Pasta, bread or rice anymore. I do a lot of baked or grilled stuff now rather than fried or sauteed. I always buy either low fat or fat free cheeses and yogurts. I also always buy plain yogurt and add my own fruit to keep the sugars down. Yogurt with fruit already in it, the sugar content is through the roof.

Congratulations to you! I have been averaging about 12lbs a month. Sometimes a little more and sometimes a little less. Just depends on how hard I push myself during my workouts and how diligent I am with my diet.

Thank you! I have so many different lotions it's crazy! Some of the ones I have are the Lane Bryant firming lotion, aveeno, vaseline, and meleluca among many others that I don't remember off the top of my head right now. I use all of them throughout the week. I use an anti wrinkle cream on my face at night, but I can't remember the name or brand right now.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You look beautiful! I hope I can lose that much in 10 months. You were only 14 pounds heavier than I was. Gives me hope!!! Can you share your eating habits? Seems I'm on a stall every few pounds. I've started increasing my Protein and Water to see if that helps. I find that I'm not eating enough calories in a day.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!!
