My arms have definition now and I'm walking like i'm sexy again LOL. It's really surreal that It's me who is and has made all these changes in my life. WOW!

Incredible job! I'm not near that rate of loss. I had surgery at the end of June and am around 65 lbs down. What are you doing to have such awesome results?

I'm only at the gym a few hours per week (personal trainer 2X/week). I count all my calories and still don't exceed more than 1,000 per day most of which come from Proteins, but my carbs get up around 70 per day. It's a sloooooow process. :l

Thanks for sharing!

Hey Deb thanks for responding 65 lbs down since surgery is awesome! My surgeon told me that I my weight loss will slow down down over the next 3 months. That being the case i walk a 4 miles a day 2 in the morning and 2 at night NO MATTER WHAT! That along with seeing my trainer 3xs per week, and of course my main tools my doggie Jackson, & (Sleevenstein) the weight is coming off constantly. Now I make sure i get my 80 to 100 grams of Protein in everyday. I've learned that you have to bump up your caloric intake when you are working out or your body will hold on to the weight; well that's my non scientific explanation lol. Keep pushing Deb we got this for the rest of our healthy lives. Go go go!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
