WOOT WOOT!!!!

I haven't been on the boards for a while and when I get on I see THIS GREAT NEWS???? Way to go! I'm so happy for you.

@esskay77 -- work the plan. Eat your Protein first. Avoid carbs except fruits/veggies. Exercise consistently (weight bearing and cardio). If you're off track, talk to your doctor and nutritionist. I hit my goal at 5-1/2 months following the plan exactly. I'm feeling fantastic, loving the new level of energy and I've gotten to where the eating plan is my normal routine. You can do it, too!

I don't have a standing photo since I reach goal but here I was holding my granddaughter. You can tell by my face and skinny legs...I will get a better one soon...(over 80 inches gone)

Rocking those boots! Funny -- I lost inches everywhere but I still have big calves and have trouble finding big-calf boots. Even the extended calf ones are usually too tight to zip! :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
