I was also 253 on the day of surgery. Things have been going a bit slow, but I hope to have similar success.

That's Great! I'm running a 5k in April with friends and bought matching camo tanks and butterfly wings. (a tutu was our other option). Hope I'm not far behind in posting I'm down 100lbs. Awesome job

I've never been big on running, mainly because I never could run too well, but doing a 5k with my friends is something I can't wait to do! I live in snohomish county and there is always a cool run going in around the Seattle area!

You are living proof that stalls are OK! It's also good to see your diet to know I am not too far off the mark. Really happy for you! What success! Enjoy! :)

Hi Bella!

Thanks!! I do not really exercise. I just do "activity" that is fun - like walk my dog when it's warm, ride my bike to Sonic to get a diet tea, belly dance for fun, etc. At the beginning I could barely walk- mainly cuz of pain due to the surgery- but I built up to a thirty minute walk with my Great Dane (her picture is my avatar) after a couple months. I really just want to do the Color Run/Walk with my family (they're all active) for the fun of it. Looks like a blast!!

Thank you SO much everyone! You are all so encouraging!! I truly hope that everyone hits their goal and experiences the joy of success!

Just remember, you can't control how fast it comes off. You can only control your day by day (hour by hour) actions :-)

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
