70 pounds down and 60 inches lost



Recommended Posts

I take my measurements once a month and was excited to note that I've lost 60 inches in 4 months (I take neck, biceps, chest, waist, hips, thighs and calves). I have another 10 days until my 4-mo anniversary from surgery and I've lost 70 pounds so far (hopefully another 4 pounds down by then).

Have been a "consistent" loser so far, but not breaking any records...no real stalls... Took some pants in to be altered yesterday, and was really something to see how much she pinned on the sides and the seat/crotch (btw, that is just a word that sounds terrible).

The boobs are just now starting to deflate, still an F cup and look good in a bra, but holy geez, nekkid is an entirely different story.

Last two months I've been exercising 3x weekly...Started doing barre classes last week, and the bodies of the other class participants encourages me that my muscles could become more "eucalyptus" than "oak trunk" like I currently have :-)

Jen you were beautiful before, but even more beautiful now. Keep up the good work. I just did my surgery last Thursday and I'm down 18 lbs from surgery and plus 28 from the pre-op diet. I'm new to this app I don't know how to use it well.

Just got back from a 3-day wine tasting trip and it was SOOO nice to actually think I looked good in the pics taken.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
