Great progress. You look AWESOME (especially the SMILE)! I'm 7 weeks out and almost 40 lbs down but still can't see it in my photos. I took a picture this weekend in my bathing suit showing my terrible hips, thighs, and knees and really wanted to cry. The only thing that stopped me was the posts from people further into the journey than I am, posts like yours with the awesome photos...these are the encouragements that help me with my patience and realistic goal-setting. Thanks so much for sharing!

Thx!! I think I'm a slow loser because its not as fast as others. It's gotten so bad I rarely weigh myself now... I just let the inches fall off. 11 weeks and I've only lost abt maybe 35 lbs. but I started @ 264, and I'm 5'8. I feel great though!! I feel lighter already! Lol

I think slow loss might just be a good thing. Your skin has a chance to tighten up better that way. Like you said if the inches are coming off that's all that matters. The scale is slow too!! :)

Looking great! I think the part where you say you feel lighter is what is most important. Numbers on a scale are just that, numbers. I totally believe the best way to judge your success is how you FEEL! The better you feel, the more successful you are....Congrats and much future success!!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
