Your transformation is nothing short of AMAZING!!!!!!! How long did it take you to lose this much weight? You look very young. So smart to address this now. Any tips or advice for others to be successful? Have you had any cravings? Any temptation to cheat on your eating plan? Are you exercising? What type of exercise, if so? You should be so proud of yourself!!!!

I to have stabilized and you and I are about the same amount of time out from surgery. Some people look healthy they say that about me. Some people say you may look younger they say that about me also. But you had the most miraculous transformation. I hope that you feel as well as you look. I congratulate you on your journey.

Tips: well, I just follow the rules, eat real food, no more than 4oz at a time, Protein first, no bread/rice/pasta/potatoes, drink Water, and exercise. :)

Cravings? Minimal. I usually crave food that isn't "bad" for me... Like watermelon or Quest bars. And the few times I've given in to something I THOUGHT I wanted (like a french fry, or bite of a cupcake) it never seemed to taste as good as I remember. THANKFULLY.

And yes, I exercise quite a bit. I started with mainly cardio and light (5-15 lbs wts). But after losing weight I quickly realized that's not the body shape I was after. So I began lifting heavier weights 3-4 times a day. I still do some cardio, but not every day as I had been. I also go to yoga and BodyFlow classes a few times a week.

Bravo to you for posting the FABULOUS meal pics! That is the BEST visual for what we will be eating. I have been curious about types and quantities of food. This is SUPER HELPFUL!!!!

When you say "this is not the body you were after" what do you mean? Was your shape too "flabby", did you want more muscle tone, How is yoga helping you? Sorry for so many questions, but we are about the same starting weight and your information and pics have been SO HELPFUL!!!

I'm glad you find the photos helpful!!! That's what I was hoping for! :)

Not the body i was after: I felt too boney. I could see all my ribs in the mirror - it just wasn't a good look for me. I wanted a little more muscle and curves.

I first started yoga for a little strength.. But strength., flexibility, elongating muscles, relaxation/meditation.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
