You look amazing and it's just fear of who you are becoming that concerns him. Don't worry, just keep loving him and showing him you haven't changed except for size.

My doc said I look great and don't see no problem with me getting thesex11 pounds to be at normal bmi .. And I feel great my problem is that I don't kno when enough is enough because I feel euphoria when I lose it like making touchdown .. But I think it's time to set some. Toning goals

It feels good to feel good. No need to feel bad about that. Be healthy and happy and those you love will see that. Healthy is number one so that includes being fit so you have good goals of wanting to tone. Congratulations!

You look amazing....The flip side to a food addiction is to become addicted to something else, like how little you can eat...or how small you can become..Or my personal peeve..When people deny themselves things as if they were on a old failed diet....We suffer from food addiction and we have to be so careful not to turn the sleeve into another addiction....see how small we can become.....It is mind control...you have shown such strength with your tool...Don't lose the war by never being satisfied with who you are as a whole person..Push the not enough goal away and dress the beautiful person you have become and use your life like you dreamed you wanted to...Now is the time to enjoy your hard work and live life.......All the best

How's your tummy skin doing? Like I've told you before, we're started at the same weight and same body type. I'm not sure if you've had kids, but I'm worried about my tummy skin because of my 2 pregnancies. I'm 2.5 months out and 63lbs down!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
