Recommended Posts

I made it through the holidays without gaining so that is good but I am ready to get to goal. Need to lose about another 20-25lbs. I will have to through the carb detox too. Man those carbs are like drugs. Alway calling my name. Good luck and happy new year to all!!

I want to get to goal this year, preferably in the next few months (my surgery was 12/19/12). I'm going to be more diligent with weighing and measuring my food, since I've gotten a little lax with that. I'll continue tracking every bite on my fitness pal. And, I'm going to ramp up my exercise. Here's to a healthy 2014!

I need to cut back on the sugar.... I havent seen any weight gain from it yet but I find mysekf reaching for it a LOT mor often than I had been.... I never really limited the other carbs as long as I ate Proteins first...

I recently had hysterectomy and studies show the aveerage weight gain 1 year out is 20 pounds...THAT CANNOT HAPPEN FOR ME so I need to monitor my habits....

Aww thank you so much!!

Actually my hair is very thin. I've lost half my volumn. I was blessed to have very thick hair. :) I do take 10,000 mcg of Biotin everyday and have started taking prenatal vitamins! hahaha.. funny someone my age taking prenatal Vitamins. I have to say that they really help my hair and nails.

I'm still struggling to lose weight. I wish it wasn't so hard this far out!! Happy to be in a 10 though!

Have a great day and God bless!!

I too want to refocus tracking. I have been trailing off at the end of the day. That's the part of the day with the most "risk" for head hunger behavior. I have not succumbed to it; still, take one thing away and it becomes a slippery slope.

I also would like to have plastic surgery this year.

I want to loose 40lbs and get to goal. This will take a serious effort. Gained 3lbs baking but lost it this week was sick.

Only got a short time frame so even if I loose half I'll be happy.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
