Slow losers..... Motivational steps



Recommended Posts

Hi everybody my name is Ballermom and I'm a slow loser. Ok so, I'm not the typical " I lost 100lbs in 4-6 months" deal. So I developed some motivational steps to help others like myself.

Step one- Don't compare yourself with any body. You worked to hard on this Journey with all the hoop jumping just to get the surgery. Time to appreciate how hard you've worked and who you are as an individual.

Step two-make that scale your Be-atch!

Step three- add another weight loss exercise like Skinny Sex!

Step four- don't forget to enjoy the Journey!

I'm definitely in the club. This Monday I'll be 7 weeks out and as of today I am down 19.6 lbs from surgery day. But, you are right, I can't compare myself to anyone else. This is my journey. I'm happy the scale is going down!

Love the pics!!

I'm on my second month long stall right now. In 9 months I've lost 90 pounds. I knew once I was close to being under 200 pounds my weight would stall. Sure enough, I've been stuck at 205 since the last week of June! 90 pounds is a lot of freakin weight though. I'm very happy! I'm content knowing I'll never be 100 pounds overweight again!

This is good. I've stall since June 21, I'll be 2 mont August 1st down 32 lbs and some times I feel down but not gonna let the scale determine my life. I know 6 month or a year from now or how ever long it takes me, I will reach my goal.

I am 7 weeks out and have lost 32 pounds including my 2 week liquid diet. I am happy though because it is coming off and I couldn't have lost 32 pounds in 9 weeks (pre op included) on my own. I will just keep plugging along and when a stall hits and my hair is falling out I will hang in there!! I have lost a ton of inches so I am looking at that as well. Losing slow and a happy girl!! :)

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
