4.5 months out and down 107 pounds!

I am soo happy with my progress! I have had a lot of issues through this journey though. Im still losing a lot of hair and still have trouble keeping food down sometimes. But for people out there that are only 2,3,4 weeks out...it gets better! I didn't think it would...I would cry because I thought things would never get better but now I feel amazing! I love it! I started at 333 and im now at 226 and my goal weight is 160 to 170. Im going to Vegas in october so my goal is to get to at least 170 by then. :) I've attached a picture of myself. Im the one on the left with the brownish blonde hair.

Thanks!! I feel great! I lost 15 before surgery...we were required to in order to have surgery. I haven't really done anything special to lose it...in fact I haven't really been working out much lately because I've been super busy but im still losing somehow.

That's amazing!! I got sleeved on 2/1, and I am down -19lbs as of day of weigh in, in only 14 days! This is great news!! Are you doing protein shakes, and getting in lots of liquids?

Awesome!! Congrats! I actually drink slim fast drinks bc I can't keep the protein powder down...and I do alot of protein bars too. I still don't get in 70 grams everyday though its soo hard! I do drink quite a bit of liquids though.

You look awesome! Congrats!

Ok, thanks for the heads up:). I have heard that protein and liquids are the key. I, too, have been struggling with the powder shakes...waaay too thick! I will try the slim fast drinks and see how they work. Congrats!!!!

That is a pretty hefty loss! Good for you!
