Had VSG surgery in February....down 79.6 lbs. First time EVER watching the Biggest Loser as a thin person. In the past, my hubs and I would get a snack, watch the show and talk about how difficult being away from your family would be.

Last night, with no Snacks, I looked at my husband and told him that I WANTED TO GO WORKOUT after watching the show! I felt so motivated seeing the contestants start their change - seeing their determination, effort, and focus.

Sat there and wondered, during my weight loss journey, have my friends or family been motivated watching MY changes/determination/focus?

So I wanted to tell all of you - my VSG brothers and sisters, I keep coming to this site every day to watch your changes, determination and focus. I want to THANK each of you who take the time to share your successes and struggles. It keeps me SO MOTIVATED. So if you think what you are doing doesn't matter and no one is watching you...YOU ARE WRONG. You are a light for many - in person and online.

Hugs my friends....let's kick some ass this week.

We used to do the same thing. Where we live, Biggest Loser night was the same night as 2 for one pizza and so we always had my friend come over, pizza and I would make a dessert. haha It was always a fun night in a weird way.

Proud of your success! Feels good doesn't it?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
