Low BMI - 2 Months Out - 37 Down Progress Pics!



Recommended Posts

I had nearly 80 to lose when I started... and I'm hypothyroid so it felt unattainable considering that I NEVER lose consistently and I ALWAYS lose SLOW! But here I am... Two months out... 37 pounds down and happier with this decision than anything I've ever done since finishing college! I just wanted to come on and share my progress pics since today is my surgiversary! Here you go and if my undies offend you I'm sorry... they just show progress very well :rolleyes: . Top row pics were taken the night before surgery - bottom row were an hour ago.post-33941-13813661545975_thumb.jpg post-33941-13813661546878_thumb.jpg post-33941-13813661547366_thumb.jpg

What did your doctor say about hypothyroidism and the surgery. Most I have talked to say it doesn't effect them at all.

What did your doctor say about hypothyroidism and the surgery. Most I have talked to say it doesn't effect them at all.

My primary care doctor said that surgery was pretty much the only way I was going to lose weight and keep it off since I am hypothyroid. My surgeon said I'd lose a bit slower than most people. To counter that I keep my calories really low and he thinks that's a good idea. By keeping my calories between 500-700 and my Protein up I average about 3lbs/week (overall - not every week).

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
