Down -115lbs since 6/6/13



Recommended Posts

In 2013 I became super unhappy with myself. I didnt know where I was gonna go in life due to the fact that i was 30 pounds away from being 300lbs. I was in awe & disbelief with the fact that I let myself go. In march I sat my mom down and let her know that I was considering weightloss surgery. In march of 2013 I went to my first appointment. I fell in love with my surgeon & knew it was the right choice for me. After 3 months of testing & waiting on insurance I got approved & had my surgery June 6th 2013. My highest weight was 269. I am now 153.4. I have lost a total of -115.6lbs & want to loose another 20! Never give up on your dreams. This has been the best decision of my life!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
