Well I have not been on here in a long time, so much going on in my life but still trying to get the weight off and keep it off.

I am currently down 79 pounds since Aug 2013. I still have a ways to go but I keep pushing. And I have to agree with other post I have read. I cant seem to get the weight to move from the places I need it to go but my waist line is flying away. I need my butt, thighs, hips, and arms to all shrink. But still its a work in progress!!!

Hi August 2013 sleevers, was peeking in to see how everyone is doing. I am now 7 months post sleeve and down 93 pounds. Unbelievable. Only 20 more pounds and I will be at my goal. It has slowed down to about 5- 7 pounds a month, wearing a size 12 feels better than a 24. I am throwing out all of my big clothes, how about you all ? Anyone finding great fun in shopping for new clothes? Except for the hair loss and elephant skin butt, I feel pretty good. I can also eat about a cup of food at a sitting. How are the rest of you doing?

I think I'm cheating too much. I've probably been having more carbs than I should. I'm not good at exercising, either. My doctor said the weight would be harder to lose now. Time to get serious again!

Believe me, Bon, I've had stalls too. I seemed to yo yo around in December and January but really didn't lose anything. My NUT told me to switch up and eat up to 30 carbs a day for 2days and on the third day, eat up to 100. At first I had a slight gain, but then it seemed to kick in. Also, we joined a gym and started doing Water aerobics about 3 weeks ago, which has really helped. I started at 410 and now I'm 310, so I've got a long way to go and I know the next 100 will be even harder. We can do this. One meal at a time.

We really need to consider what percentage of our weight we actually lost instead of complaining about only this and only that and how slow etc etc! You may be surprised!

LI is right. I like that My Fitness Pal shows me the percent change in my body weight. Also a lot of times, weight loss is slower if you aren't really big to start with. I stared at 410.

      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?

      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
