Hit nutrisionist goal! 85 pounds lost with pics!



Recommended Posts

Hey everyone!

Life has been crazy and I've been so busy. I'm moving Sunday so once that is done I'll have more time to chat! :)

I wanted to do a quick check in because i reached my nutritionist goal for me yesterday!!

I can't believe I finally made it here! It has actually happened! My doctor said I would get here before 6 months and he was right!

Gastric Bypass: Feb 19 ( 4months and 5 days).

Start : 230 lbs, XXL, 40D, pants 14-16 (not sure exactly because always wore elastic).

Current: 145 lbs, S-M, 34C, pants 6-8 (depends on brand. I just bought jean shorts that are 8 in juniors!)

I'm very fortunate to not have a lot of excess skin... Again my doctor said I probably wouldn't because I'm young.

I still get sick some times but it's usually my fault for eating something I shouldn't, so I need to stop that. Lol :)

I feel good otherwise. I'm sleeping great, have energy/ stamina. It's crazy how people treat you different when you are skinny. I appreciate the attention..: I mean, who wouldn't feel good about themselves after 5 college guys go crazy yelling how beautiful you are when you get out of your car at Walmart! Lol At same time though it makes me sad when I think about how society treats people so differently because of their weight. :(

Anyways.... I need some sleep. My oldest daughter has Girl Scout camp in the morning.

Good night everyone!

HB

Good luck to everyone else out there! Stay motivated!!!?

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
