Recommended Posts

I'm givin' up nothing cause I'm a (not as) big (as I used to be) ol' heathen.

Haha, I'm pretty close to being a heathen myself!

Last year I gave up caffeine and on Tuesday I was the victim of an intervention from my work colleagues begging me to give up anything but caffeine this year as I was such a moody cow for 40 whole days!!!

This year I'm giving up Facebook.< /p>

I think he plays for the same team you do, but I'm not 100% sure.

So, don't feel bad.

I think I'm giving up my scale for lent! This is going to be the hardest thing for me to do' date=' because I am a daily/multiple times a day weigher. I think this is going to help me remove my obsessive focus from the numbers. Anyone else giving up something?[/quote']

I am going to join you, too! Sorry for being a copy cat. I am just 2 1/2 weeks out from surgery. Down 34 lbs, including a 20 lb loss on the pre-op diet. I feel like my excitement to get out of bed everyday is that stupid scale! I hate that. Sure, I want to lose weight! But ultimately, that isn't the goal. I want to be healthy. I want to feel better.

Thank you for such a great idea! :)

Gave up most of my stomach about 40 days ago. Now its time to give up another weakness, the couch. Started "Couch to 5K". Lord knows I'll need divine help with that!

      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?

      April Surgery
      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
