Just got off a two week stall and I am finally below 200. I can't recall the last time I was below 200 pounds and it feels great! I have 48 pounds to goal and I know I'll get there. I have been trying to think of what has been the toughest part of this journey and I don't have a solid comment. I've had ups and downs, pain here and there, frustrations and celebrations but I'm always moving forward. I don't let the stalls get to me and when I'm in one I don't change anything. I just keep going and wait them out.

I'm an average loser and I'm ok with that. My biggest issue is tightening up all this flabby skin. I'm almost at 4 months and learn something new all the time. Anyone have any great ideas for toning legs and butt? Let's not forget my flabby stomach either!

So thankful for the sleeve and how much I've changed. I still see the old me in the mirror but the new me is starting to show up too. Good luck to everyone and remember .... it's a journey. You'll have good days and bad but WAY more good days!

59 lbs in 3 and a half months???

i think thats a "little" better than average :)

you've done great!!!! :)

when you/me were born - i always said "when i grow up i want to be in onderland!! :D "

you did it!!!!

ups and downs???

if we didn't have few bumps in the road, how boring would life be :lol:

as far as extra skin!!!

its true what "they" say that the loose skin tightens up a bit as time passes

the younger you are the better things "end up" :lol:

I'm "alittle" bit of an older "fart" - but my skin still tighten up a bit

still have loose skin of course - amazingly, only very little as far as tummy (i never had rolls or anything) :)

most of my skin is in thighs and rear end that "dropped" :angry:

i seriously don't know where my tushy went :lol:

anyone that has seen it - if you want it, its available - no charge :lol:

congrats on all your success today, tomorrow and for the rest of your longer, healthier, happier life :)

keep up the great work!!!

congrats

      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.

      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...
