Down 71.5 sleeved Oct 25th 2012..starting was 220 now im 148.5

Little late on my 4mo update.... But sleeved 2/18/13 down 62.6lbs in 4mos! Lots of stalls, but still feel good about the lbs gone, 1/2 way to goal!

 

Starting weight 258.4

Current 195.8

5 weeks out surgery on 5/22 down 16 pounds. Only 10 pounds away from my lowest adult weight!!

I was sleeved by Dr. Garcia on May 15, 2012. Since surgery I've lost 132 pounds. I have not lost in about 4 months and its all due to me not exercising and not eating the right foods. I still have 30-40 more that I want to lose.

At this point in my journey, I really have to work to lose the weight. Not like after surgery at all. The weight was coming off at a very fast pace.

I am able to eat more and do get hungry now, not like it was after surgery.

I have lost 5 pounds over the past week and a half...but I've cut to 1000 calories and have been working out like crazy.

I refuse to settle for good enough and not great!

Do you think if you had continued to eat the way you had would you have maintained your weight or kept gaining?

Have you looked into how many carbs your consuming?? When I'm in a stall, I cut my carbs down to 20 a day MAX and do that for a week or so, like a reboot!!
