At the suggestion of a fellow sleever (thanks DeezJeans) I'm starting a post-op success story thread. This can be a 'numbers' thread...when you do your weigh in's, you can post your pounds lost here, and we can keep a running total. We can use this thread JUST for pounds lost!

Looking forward to the thousands of pounds we WILL be losing!

Here's what we would like to do. Please send me a private message with your goal pounds lost. (Meaning, if your goal is to lose 150 pounds, just jot that down in a quick private message and send that to me.)

Then we will compile all the pounds from everyone who wants to participate, and post the full amount, and then work towards those goals with weekly updates. We will be recording those pounds lost AFTER surgery!

You will still post your pounds lost on this forum here so we can Celebrate all of your victories (and I will keep track of them on my trusty spreadsheet, and then report the weekly pounds lost)

If you have any questions, please let me know!

I keep forgetting to do this. But my stats from last week are below. I'll check in tomorrow when I do my w/i. I'm doing ok. I have to be really careful though. I am finding that i can eat a bit more than before. I still have a good amount of weight to loose. and I'm NOT exercising. Sigh... having the WLS was great coudln't be happier, But as we all know, it's just a tool. We have to do the work.

Edited, lost a couple of lbs since I posted yesterday:)

I've not been eating as clean as I should, snacking a lot, started working and snacking is my worst enemy. Lord willing by September end, I'll get officially out of the 60's, cuz it's been almost two months and I'm up and down. Will reset my eating habits and c what happens, I can tell that my tummy is able to handle a cup of food now as opposed to the barely anything a few months ago, scary, but I pray I can get control of this snacking. Also still having swallowing problems but I'm plugging onward, nothing else to do. But continued successes to you, my fellow December friends:) you all are doing awesome still!
