AngelEyesInNJ you look awesome! Are you exercising a lot? What is your routine and what are your favorite foods? I am 19 days out and seem to be stalling at the moment.

We are very close in stats. How much are you losing weekly? What types of food are you eating? My goal is the same and SW 182

Hey! Umm, honestly I eat whatever I want and I drink alcohol too. Which is bad I know but I really have no consequences, I'm still losing a pound a week and that's what I expected to lose being that I was a low bmi. People tell me I don't need to lose much more but I know I am cause I want to be smaller. Everyone notices that I've lost a good amount of weight and it's very rewarding. I always make sure I eat Protein first whether it be meat or cheese but I do eat chips and bad stuff I shouldn't. I think I became lactose intolerant because I tried to eat ice cream and I had bad pain and diarrhea. It was awful. But I probably don't get all my Water in either and that's the worst part. I need to improve on that a lot.

Thank you!! In the beginning you will hit stalls here and there...but honestly I wish I would have worked out within the first six months when the weight was falling off more or less by it self. I didn't start hitting the gym until 6.5 months out and I have been working on it since. It takes dedication but I love it, I feel so much better after a work out..and all I do is normally an hour to an hour and a half of cardio on the elliptical ( any where from- days a week) and then 3 times a week I do strength training for my upper body and core a half an hour of this. I know I am going to need plastics done though but trying to tighten whatever I can.

I will also say as much as many love to watch the scale I would say just pick one day a week to weigh in.

As far as foods.. I have been a bad girl.. I need to start drinking my Protein again because I am not hitting my Protein goals and I know if I do up it, my weight will probably start coming back off at a more steady pace. I do tend to eat a lot of chicken and eggs ( I do not eat fish or other meats ) but I have days where I eat high carbs which I know people say we shouldn't but I am still human and I am not going back into my old habits (which could be easy with some slider foods out there).

I wish you the best of luck and I can not wait to see your amazing transformation!!! :)

      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
