Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!! Haven't logged on for awhile. Just popped in to see how my April 2014 buddies are and WOW!! Even those of you who are posting how slow your loss is are showing incredible numbers!! BRAVO!!. Lets keep it up. I feel like the the long term is going to be my biggest challenge. I am down 97 pounds. Size 22 to a 14. Still got a ways to go but I am looking and feeling great. Have started some pretty intense work out sessions with a trainer and am getting so strong. Weight loss is SOOOO SLOW for me right now. I have to fight for every pound, but we are fighters right?!! Wishing you all the best, healthiest happiest continuation of your journey!!

Hello everyone. Hope everyone is doing great. I have reached my goal of 145 pounds. Yeah!!!! I had an arm lift and breast lift with implants last Thursday. I am a bit overwhelmed with all the scars and cuts but again my arms and boobs look so much better. I am praying that with time my scars will look a lot better. My weight loss has slowed down a lot. If you hit a stall just keep pushing on. Eventually your body will do its thing. I will keep everyone posted with the results of my surgery.

Hi folks. I'm just checking in too - we're coming up on a year soon and I was wondering how people are doing sticking with eating on-plan and losing, now that we've got that first period behind us when weight loss seems a bit faster.

I'm struggling with 'treating myself' and eating a few things I shouldn't some days, and i assume that's why my loss is stalled. I've bounced between 171 and 173 for about a month now and it's driving me nuts. I"m not talking way off plan here, I'm talking letting my calories go up from 800 to 1000 a few days a week! I still get 70 to 75 grams of Protein a day and lots of exercise. I'm really hoping to start losing again--if I can just stay away from those darned Justin's Dark chocolate Peanut Butter Cups! Sigh. My commitment today is to eat only my planned food, and no junk! And--I plan to renew that each day and get through the week.

Anyone else stalled? It really DOES seem like one ought to be able to lose at this calorie level, given 6 days a week of exercise. What are all of you finding?

My surgery was April 29, 2014, my starting weight was 287, currently 173, goal (as per my doctor) is 145 and I'm 5'4".

      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?
