I was July 11. 4 months out down a few clothing sizes and 67lbs gone

Just checking in! Down to 160 and holding for the last month. I feel great, still taking my Vitamins of course. I started having some hair loss about a month ago. I hear it starts to come back by 8 months. I hope they're right! I would like to lose another 15-20 lbs, but honestly I have not tried. I think my sleeve has stretched a bit and I've been enjoying eating whatever I want. I'll have to put some rules on that! I still can't drink large amounts in one swallow. I use those skinny little coffee stirrer straws to limit the amount I drink at one time. I had gotten so burned out on Protein shakes I haven't been able to touch them for a while. I had my first one in 2 months yesterday and it wasn't bad. I think my plan will be to start back on Protein Shakes for Breakfast (and stop eating anything I want...ya think!) to get some more weight loss going. I'm SO glad I had this surgery though. I have a lot more energy and a much more positive attitude about my looks and increased self confidence! Hope everyone else is doing well =)

Congrats on all your weight loss Thinner1day- what was your starting weight?

Jo, When I started this whole journey I was 211. There was a delay in waiting for my surgery to be authorized so I stayed on the pre-surgery diet for almost a month and lost about 20 pounds! By the time I had surgery I was 190. That month of pre-surgery dieting was AWFUL! I'm sure if I hadn't had the surgery as my goal I couldn't have done that. And for sure I couldn't have kept the weight off!
