Feb 25 is my 1 year surgery-versary and I've lost 110 lbs and still going. I am very happy with my surgery decision and hope to continue losing to get where I want to be. In any case I am much healthier now and for that I am grateful.
I could not find any full length photos of me at my heaviest so the pic on left is me after already losing 45 lbs and the pic on the right was taken a few days ago with my 110 loss. I still have some bulges to work on but happy to keep on working it out!

Wow that's an amazing transformation! I am not there yet but yes, I worry about maintaining when my time comes for that. My husband had his surgery before me and he seems to be maintaining just fine. He was lactose intollerant before surgery but for some reason has no more issue with that. So ice cream calls his name alot and that is his personal issue to work out but he's learning his limit and how to fit it into his life. He goes to Planet Fitness and when he gains a couple pounds he steps things up a bit to get back where he was. He also is heavy into bicycling, which is new for him.

Do you have anything you crave or that you think will be a problem? Have you thought about solutions or management tricks?

Ok, my computer is seriously acting up, lol. I just reached my goal Saturday so maintenance is new for me. I don't find that I have any cravings but do have an issue with MFP. When I have left over calories at the end of the day I feel I must eat them, lol. Don't ask me why, it's a mental thing. But someone offered some great advice/suggestion that I'm going to try to take care of that issue. I exercise 5 days a week, 30-45 minutes a day. Treadmill on incline or elliptical. I gave Focus T25 and C25K a go and found I didn't enjoy either one of them. I just worry so much about going back to where I was, it's consuming my every thought and I need to find a balance. I guess just like the losing phase was a learning process maintenance will be a learning process as well. Congrats to all those and their success! Any suggestions/advice are greatly appreciated :)

Well maintaining isn't going to good so far. Met with the plastic surgeon two weeks ago and I was told I needed to start maintaining and not to lose any more. That same day I met with my sleeve doctor and was told to start increasing my calories. So I went home and made me a plan to start increasing the intake. But I've lost 4 lbs in 2 weeks with the increase. My nut today said my body will know when it's ready to stop. Just to keep exercising and eating like I'm doing. I sure hope I stop soon, I never wanted to look sickly. Which I don't think I look yet, but in 15 or 20 more lbs I will.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
