Yup that's about right. We went out last night and I got a half rack of ribs. 2 was all I could eat. I took it home and have been munching on it little by little.

Haha....yep, that's it! I usually try to pick a protein-y appetizer & ask for a veg on the side.

Every time we go out I always order a regular portion..got tired of waiters asking me if I did not like the food and or could they get me something else. Once even the manager came over and asked me what was wrong with the food...

I have a built in cleaning department with me and he eats most of my left overs before I get up from the table. The rest he takes to work the next day....

I think he loves that!!!!!!!

Feels normal to me now!!!!!!!!!

I share with my husband. I have become a very cheap date to take out for dinner. If I do have left overs, I get three sometimes four meals out of it.

Grammy, your post reminded me that I'm a little behind on updating my profile, by about 60 pounds or so :)

Which Tom Hanks movie? Captain Phillips or Mr. Banks? I loved Captain Phillips but haven't seen Mr. Banks yet.

hmmmmm

27 lb weight loss - thats great - what more could you ask for???

maybe having a 98 lb weight loss :)

good for you

holding the door for you to enter the century club

always room for one more smiling face :)

yep keep those profiles and tickers coming/updated

hint hint to others ;)

seeing the movie Mr. Banks with Tom Hanks et al

my 83 year old mom has told "us" no more sad movies

sometimes hard to find a good comedy (not a stupid crazy one)

this looks good - not total comedy, which works for me - "little" more serious side too???

keep up your ggggggrrrrrrrrrreat job :) (i know you will :) )

good luck

kathy

congrats :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
