Signed up for training for warriors program at my gym and today I did two back to back classes my reg class and then we did one in the park to advertise. It was awesome I may have been a bit slower the second class but I was stronger than last week . I was so proud of myself I almost cried on my drive home to think how far I have come in the past 5 months.

I'm not a stocking person but where them when the occasion calls. I had a banquet Friday night and put on the only one's I had which were queen sized. Queen plus that is. They were so big that I had to pull the toes and place them underneath my feet in my shoes. I through them away as soon as I got back home. So I also had a wedding yesterday but before I went, I went to the store to purchase a new pair of stockings. Well I'm happy to report that I purchased a regular pair of stockings. I haven't purchased a regular pair of stockings since I have been grown. Isn't that something.

That is amazing!! I know that felt good... I find myself walking so much faster now. 6 months ago I couldn't keep up walking with my coworker who is from NY and used to walking fast. But now I can even walk fast and talk without being out of breath !

I am down one jean size! Broke into the little stack of 16 Lee longs in my bottom drawer. I have been in 18 Lees for a long, long time. Yippee! They are a little snug but I'm wearing them anyway. Considering going out to find the next size down to have on-hand -- an incentive.....

Went out last night and danced and danced and danced. Never once thought my feet hurt or sit this one out cuz I'm tired. I did sit some out if I was getting hot but there were plenty of people sweating so I know that was just the situation not me being out of shape. Met some new people and plan to go out next weekend too! (Happy dance lol)

Sounds like you had a lot of fun and it was exercise!! Congrats!

Went shopping yesterday, I had to get a few things to hold me over...I tried on size 18 jeans...too big. Tried 16 fit like a glove! Tried on XL sweat pants...too big bought the large, could have bought the medium but I have to fly and want to be comfy.

Happy Happy...but hubby is not so happy about all the clothes :) I'll have to find the time to go through the archives and keep what fits and bag up what doesn't.

      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?

      April Surgery
      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
