LOL! @Teachamy - been a long time since i have been called skinny or considered myself even remotely thin... your comment made me giggle! Thank you!

Thank you everyone for all your wonderful comments!! i was so neverous to post my pictures... idk, we are all in the same boat and so many others have posted pictures, i dont know why i was so insecure to do it too... to me, it feels like i am standing naked in front of a group of people... lol - again thank you so much for the comments!

Great job, you look fantastic! I'm about 5 months out too. Despite exercise efforts I still feel very thick waisted! What are you doing for exercise to get such a tiny waist?

Again, GREAT job, you look wonderful!

all i have done, is walk. Actually i havent been allowed to work out due to a DTV (blood clot) i have only been allowed to walk a mile a day & not all at once. I have been just cleared this past tuesday to start walking & light work outs.

WAY Back when i was in highschool & in my 20's i was very small waisted - I am really in shock that my waist is shrinking the way it is... However I hardly eat anything that has been processed... I eat 90% whole foods.. and no pork, bread, Pasta at all, and hardly any sugar... I only drink Water, skim milk & Protein shakes once in a great while i will have 1oz of red wine - My taste buds are so crazy wacky... if i eat anything processed or from a pig, it makes me very sick....

Thank you for the nice comments! Take care :)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
