Oh but I am having new issues with acne. Went from mild to moderate these past few weeks. Nodules on face and scalp. Never had scalp issues before. Ick. Looking at Accutane for treatment.

Ugh I can't wait til I'm in the onederland numbers. I still have so far to go and it is taking a long time mentally but in reality I know it is not bad at all. I started going to the gym this week for 90 mins of cardio and I do 50 mins of strength training with my trainer. I have manage to burn off more then what I eat every day which I think pushed me over my stall. THANK GOODNESS....I really don't seem to mentally handle the stalls very well. I know I should be patient cause I tell others to but man it is really annoying. I did take my monthly pics and I can not see the different but I def can feel the difference. I'm down three pant sizes and I can fit into old clothes but in the pic I just can not see a difference. I think that will be the best NSV for me when I can really see a difference. I'm super proud of everyone on this thread. I think we are all doing so well. A year ago I did not think I would ever see this weight again and I'm glad I finally decided to take my life back and break up with my addiction to food, Well, I'll always be addicted but now I have learned how to fight it!

@@Veronica Page Trust me when I say that you'll be the last to notice how much your body has changed. Body dysmorphia is common. One day you'll be 100 lbs lighter and finally say "That totally happened!" Last time I was at this weight I felt fat. Now I feel smaller which is great. Also swimming in my clothes. I'm still wearing them though so my brain hasn't quite caught up. I look at shirts that actually fit me now and it doesn't compute.

I know isn't it nuts....? When I was this weight last and noticed I was like ew what it is going on i'm gross. Which is weird cause I allowed myself to still gain an extra 50lbs. Now I feel so much but and my clothes do feel larger I just want to look in the mirror and say wow I really can see the difference. I will be patient and not even think about it anymore!

I feel like I am losing no weight in my stomach area! My face, chest and arms look smaller. It is very annoying, I wore a 26/28 and now have fit into some 18/20 but I have these Capri pants size 22 that I can't fit into! Super annoying!!

@@Veronica Page Sounds to me like you're having Water weight fluctuations. I hate trainers that do that, work youtill you can't move It's horrible for morale and almost guarantees a break in motivation. My stomach is also a slow loser. I'm usually an all over gainer/loser but this time my tummy has been stubborn. Has to do with it being a surgery site. Closet the scale. It's the only way.

Yea I have just once a week weigh in from the trainer and I'm not losing tummy wweight which is a bummer but I guess It will come off when it's suppose to. It is hard not to move after working out but I haven't used my muscles for so long there is not much that was going to prevent that.

I'm steady with moderate exercise ( yoga and brisk walking/jogging are my favs right now!) I eat clean ( healthy fats and a bite here and there of healthy carbs.) and as much Protein as I can stomach in a day. I still struggle to get 60g. But I'm close! I stop eating as soon as I'm full ( 4-5bites normally.) and I'm losing at a healthy pace. Slow and steady. My tummy fat started losing high and is working down. Hips/ lower abs are my worst area for sure.

I need to maybe try to work in some more healthy veggies but they still hurt my stomach a lot! losing weight steady now but every 10lb loss I get a stall! Wait and see right lol! Hope everyone else is still doing really well.

Good news: Traveled 2 weeks to see relatives and lost 3 pounds and finally moved off a stall.

Bad news: My hair has started to fall out. Slowly at first but it's starting to increase.

That's some crazy good weightloss! Good for you!!

I've tried a little salad, but my restriction doesn't allow much. I avoid lettuce as there really is no nutritional value and your body doesn't digest it anyways. Kale or spinach are better. Veggies don't seem to bother my stomach greatly but I've stuck to small amounts and chew like crazy. I love salad and miss it sometimes.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
