Recommended Posts

Hi :)

I have posted pics here before but I took a new after photo yesterday morning so here it is.

I was sleeved 21st January 2013. My start and current weight are on the pics but I'll say in lbs for all you Americans haha.

Before 247lbs

After 162lbs

I'm about 20-30lbs from goal.

Thank you so much!!

A typical day would look like this:

Breakfast:

A lot of the time I skip Breakfast which is really bad but when I do eat it I have a piece of fruit or 1 boiled egg.

Lunch:

Shaved chicken or a can of tuna

Dinner:

Lasagna or chicken/beef/lamb curry

Snack:

Bowl of steamed veggies

I love to cook and try new meals, also trying healthy versions of things. I made a healthy nachos the other day and boyfriend and I both loved it.

As for exercise I'm training for a 14km run at the moment so I try to run 3 times a week. I also have a gym membership but I haven't been going :/

I need to start doing weights to tone up because as you can see my thighs and tummy are flabby.

When I'm bored or have nothing to do I will just make up a circuit, usually something like:

1 min plank

50 squats

20 push ups

30 leg lifts

30 star jumps

And repeat

Have you had your surgery?

Fantastic! You look like a different person! I was sleeved 2 months before you and still 15lbs till goal ... I'm finding the weight loss has really slowed now! Grrrr. Anyways you look great - not flabby at all as you mentioned, and you cant even see your scars at all!

Gee you looked great even before! I am so jealous you didn't have the upper and lower bellies! You must be really tall because i started at 98 kg and look nowhere near as gorgeous as you did when you started. And you look fabulous now too.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
