You look incredible! How often do you work out/ what do you do?

Thank you. I started out just walking. I did that 7 days a week. At least 20 mins a day. Then once I got to 197, I started lifting weights. Jillian Michaels is a god to me. I started with her 30 day shred, then ripped in 30, then hard body and now back to Ripped in 30. I do one week on of circuit training and cardio and one week off just cardio. I exercise 5-6 days a week. I will be going down to 3-4 days a week. I need to keep it realistic. I'm a mom of 2, I run a household and go to nursing school full time. So exercising 5-6 days a week is not realistic. I started at 270. Surgery was 2/25/13. As of today I'm 168.

Thank you!! I exercise, use baby oil on my skin, drink a lot of Water. Lifting weights is most important. This is the second time I have lost a massive amount of weight. First time in 2006 I lost 200 lbs in 18 months. Plus I had a baby 14 months ago. So exercise has been key. I had practice with my Lapband. I learned my lesson.

Ppl mostly feel like they look sick because your not use to seeing yourself that small but my advice is get down at least 10 pound under what you really wanna be .. I decide to let my sleeve lead me

O.M.G. You look so much younger! That first pic looks like your mom or your older sister!! Or maybe an older Auntie..lol.. Fantastic Job!

      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!!
