1 year surgiversary! (a little late :))



Recommended Posts

December 10 was my 1 year anniversary and I am down a total of 102lbs!

I started this journey at 332lbs and today am 230lbs (5'8"). I was in 26/28, I assume 3XL tops.

Today I am in size 16 jeans and large or xl tops depending on where I go.

This has not been an easy journey and I have fought for every pound. I was pregnant in july and we lost it in september and I have not lost a pound since! I am working so hard to get it going again but it just hasnt happened yet. I know I am not done losing yet! Hoping to get to my goal by May of 165! If i could just get below 230 I think I could do it!

Hope everyone has a great christmas!

hey girlfriend

remember me??? hope so ;)

so good to see you now, even though i'm seeing "less and less" of you ;)

102 lbs gone - you are aces!!! :rolleyes:

I don't "think" this is always a smooth ride for others either (not me)

but we stay strong - work hard - and you/me/all will succeed

you have done so well, and i know you will continue to do so :)

I can only imagine how difficult a time you went/still going through with your miscarriage - very sorry for your loss

great pics cutie :rolleyes:

i know i will continue to see "less and less" of you in this wonderful new year :) :( ;)

try and visit more often

happy holidays back at ya :)

keep up the good job

kathy

You look awesome, congrats on your weight loss and keeping it off for all those months. That is success in itself. I'm so not the expert in trying to get the weight loss started again but maybe a trip to your DR will give some insight. I'm thinking the NUTS can give some advice. Are you working out/exercising? Maybe that would do the trick??? Wishing you a jump start in 2014 to get where you want to be :))))

thank you! i'm getting there! i can honestly say when i was pregnant i stopped working out bc i was nervous. then everything happened and then i started working out again mid to late october. i then threw my low back out in november and am in PT and seeing a chiro. i walk every day on my lunch for 25 minutes and then on fri, sat sun go to the gym and do cardio. however i just started doing cardio again this past week because i was on hiadus with my back. per chiro i started again. i did go see a NUT on the 6th of december. she seems perplexed about me because she could tell i was being honest about what i was eating which is following the plan. but she seems to think i am getting too many fat calories. so my goal for the next month is to track in mfp (which i am awful at) and then go back and see her january 10th. we are then going to review mfp log and see where she thinks i am going wrong.

i'll be honest and say once a week i do have something i am not supposed too. but so far this week i have cut that out.

hopefully getting back to the gym last week and tracking will get me going again. i do see my surgeon soon and will be talking with them about this as well :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
