Recommended Posts

who would have thought??

3 years ago, a scared little (big) rabbit had WLS

i was scared about the unknown - what to expect in my future

i crept down 105 lbs/GOAL in one year

past two years fluctuating/maintaining 3-5 lbs

at times i have weighed a "little" more

honesty, confession is good for the sole :)

i'm not perfect, welllll actually ;)

i do graze sometimes :o

or eat more than i should during the day

i don't enjoy not drinking while eating

i don't always get my 64 oz of Water

i don't exercise :o

but............

i don't weigh 235 lbs anymore :)

many wonderful things have been going on in my new life :)

my health is wonderful :)

this "sexy at 60" looks pretty HOT!! :lol: :D

we built a beautiful new house last year but.............

I don't hide in the house anymore

i find reasons to leave the house

drive here there and everywhere :)

love running errands

of course clothes shopping toooooo!!!

I do volunteer work

(I would never have put myself "out" amongst people pre WLS)

my confidence, happiness have gone through the roof

many other things i can't think of

(my memory hasn't improved :D )

with the "assistance" of the sleeve - my new world is amazing :)

that is my story and i'm stick' to it!!! :lol:

my wishes/thought/hopes

that everyone in the "world"/especially my fellow sleevers

be as happy as i am today - for the rest of your healthier, happier, longer, life

kathy

congrats to me :)

      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
