To me, 6 months PLUS is where the rubber hits the road.

Will I lose the last 50 pounds?!!?!!

Can I keep my sleeve weight loss program going and NOT start get sloppy with food and attitude.

Because I feel really good at 63lbs lighter my crazy mind keeps saying...maybe this weight is good enough. IT's NOT. I didn't do all of this to give up at the half way goal!!! Or get sloppy and gain some back! Crazy monkey mind gets me in trouble if I'm not paying attention.

Besides being in a staff for 2 weeks all is well.

Best too all of you and keep up the good work.

Questions 1. Has anyone tried or found a decent ice coffee? 2. Anyone having skin issues ie.my pimples are back and when I go in the sun my skin looks leathery n peels never had that before

.

I have iced americanos with some half and half all the time. Yummy! I haven't done anything blended yet. Feel like it's all sugary and full of air...

Your poor skin!! I have the normal sagging and aging that comes with loss but not the peeling. I would def ask your dr about that!

Confession: I've only exercised once since surgery. I'm my own worst enemy sometimes. I know I could see the scale move down a whole lot faster if I would only get moving!

I'm not sure if you're asking about Protein Drinks or not but have you ever tried Syntrax Nectar lattes, Cappuccino flavor? It's awesome! and taste pretty much just like those Starbucks Frappuccino mocha bottles you get at the supermarket I make mine with cold fat free or 2% milk yum yum and sometimes I blend it with ice... :)

where do you buy those they sound yummy! I was originally asking about coffee for days I can't seem to wake up since we can no longer drink pop.. But I'm all for learning about good Protein shakes, I haven't found one that I like yet

you can find Syntrax Nectars at GNC and Vitamin Shoppe but I get my Protein from mybariatricpantry.com it's cheaper and you can also get sample packets to try them out first before buying the big tub :) so far the syntrax flavors that I like to mix with milk are the cappuccino, fuzzy navel, strawberry mousse and double stuffed cookie and the ones I mix with Water or juice are the syntrax ice tea (I mix that with diet peach Snapple or crystal light ice tea flavor) and the lemonade... if you want some links I'll be happy to send you some... also that website has some other coffee drinks from different brands that I haven't tried yet, that you can drink hot or cold and they have caffeine.. I just got a sample one so my husband can try it so well see how that goes :)

Iced coffee...I have it everyday! I order it black with sweet n low and bring my own Sugar Free/fat free international Creamers with me. I love the chocolate almond biscotti or Carmel delite. During the holidays they also have pumpkin spice. Yummy and basically carb free. Only 15 cals-keeps me honest and on track.

      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!!

      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...
