Ever since I was sleeved, I've had my "lost" and "to go" marble jars. They sit on my desk at work and are a great reminder each day to do my best. I thought I would share so others could try the same..... It is really a great visual!!

My surgery was January 9 :) I have no idea what I will do when my "to go" jar is empty...maybe add a few more marbles? Hehe. I changed my goal from 115 to 125.

My dear granddaughter ( my only grandchild) took two small fish bowls and tied a yellow ribbon around each one and put 100 clear marbles in and wrote in yellow paint on the fish bowls lbs lost and lbs to go. She gave them to me at the beginning of my journey. I just thought this was so sweet and thoughtful. I have them on my kitchen counter so I see them all the time. A lot of movement at the beginning but sure has slowed down recently.

What a great idea! I'm sure it's a great way to stay motivated, and it is rewarding everytime you get to move some marbles.

I can't take the credit. I got the idea from Pinterest months ago.

I too got the idea from Pinterest! It's an awesome motivator! Haven't been sleeved yet (June 18th) but came in handy staying on track so far. Had a lot of fun decorating mine also!

      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
