100 lbs lost in 6 months with pics



Recommended Posts

Congratulations! You are one of the success stories I was hoping to find. I am discouraged with the speed of weightloss and don't know what I am doing wrong. I am losing 1-2 pounds per week' date=' but am just curious if you hit slow Patches and how you got through them? I had my surgery on 12-12-12 and am down about 40 lbs, most of that came pre-op and first two weeks post. Since the first of Jan. I am only down 4 lbs. Just looking for any advise you might have.

Again, Congratulations to you! You look wonderful![/quote']

Thanks for your kind words! Yes I have had a few stalls and I just keep doing everything the exact same way because it will start to come off again, our body just has to rest sometimes. Just don't get discouraged, and lord have mercy, don't get on the scale every day, that just makes it worse.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
