Progress at 2.5 months with pics.

You are looking great Gamergirl! So much progress in so little time. . Funny what you said about your boobs being more prominent now...fiddleman said something like that to me the other night. I was wearing a new t-shirt and I asked how it fit- he said it looked a bit tight. I was puzzled because it didn't feel tight at all to me. Then he said that maybe it was just because the part across my chest was "tight" and that my boobs were sticking out more! Lol. It feels nice to lead with your chest and not with your stomach anymore! Great job!

You look amazing!! I'm so glad you shared your pics!! I think this whole weight loss journey includes mostly stalls with small bits of occasional weight loss in between that add up to a large amount over time! :-)

WooHoo! GamerGirl, You look great!.......your waist is more defined, and your tummy is so flat, lucky you!

[Madam Reverie 2,958]

That, is significantly noticeable!

Look how slim your legs are?!!! They're like a quarter of the size! I want legs and a stomach like that!

Congratulations!

Congratulations! I can really see the difference. You look great. Keep up the great work!

I just saw your pics on a different thread and the difference in you is very noticeable as well! Congrats!

you look fantastic ! Less than a week now until my husband and I have the surgery ( next Tues) he has lost almost 14lb on the pre op and I have lost almost 7lb. I think this will be the norm for us I think I had better get used to him being the weight loss rock star through out this journey ha ha. I'm always checking in to see how you guys are going because your both so inspirational. Keep going your doing a great

yes get used to it and vent here not at him when he swans in, losing more than you! My husband has always been very careful not to lord it over me. I have to insist he celebrates the weight loss, because he sure does lose faster than me, and he doesn't want to upset me. i'm not upset, I'm just so dang happy for him. But he too goes through stalls. The first time, we stalled at the same time and it was easy. The next few times, one of us was losing and the other stalling.

Which is good and bad. It's good because we're doing the same plan and only one of us stalls, you know you just need to stick to the plan. Bad because you kinda want to get a high five, but you know better than to ask for one

Thank you! Yes I'm a little surprised at the change. My husband says my "front" and "back" stick out more even though I'm getting smaller. I think I was in total denial about my size pre-op because I was sure that was just a bad picture, bad angle, whatever.

It wasn't. It was me.

When do we see your pics??

You are SO right. I've been thinking about this since you wrote it last night, and I thought, maybe if we all had this expectation, instead of thinking it would be lots of weight loss with the occasional stall, then we might be happier. After losing ONE pound in 12 days, i'm stuck again, but am starting to believe it will come off anyway.

Way to go! You look great!

Looking good Gamer girl, your progress is outstanding IMO. It's amazing the areas that show progress first isn't it?. I guess that's why everyone's experience is different- we all lose at different rates and in different areas.

Wow, you look amazing for just being sleeved! I am hopefully being sleeved in Dec! CANNOT WAIT!
