I am in the same boat. My body really seems to like 168 and hasn't moved in a LONG time. I am walking 45 minutes a day and also go to a personal trainer. Not sure how long it will take me to get to goal....

I'm hanging in. Thinking I should make a visit to my nutritionist. I have no idea where I should be calorie wise.

11 Months today.
Wow.

Let’s hit those stats:
Starting weight 251
Surgery day weight 238.8
Weight today – 182
Total loss – 69lbs

I don’t know where to begin so I am just going to ramble on and see where I wind up.
I am coming up on one year and I am very happy with my progress.
69lbs is pretty fucking nifty.
Did I think I’d be further along, sure but did I ever really think I’d get “here”?
Honestly, no.
I mean I hoped that I did but I still look at the # on the scale and find it hard to believe that it’s correct.
I still try on clothes that are too big for me when I am shopping.
Yet it is and that just thrills me to bits!!!
I am not done or completed yet.
I will continue to work and make the effort.
It’s not easy and I am ok with that.
I am willing to put in the work and the effort.
There are certainly days when I want a cupcake (and I mean a good one) but I’ll physically feel like shit and the thrill certainly doesn’t last as long as I’d like it to.
So I seek my thrills elsewhere.
I am happy to be back to yoga, it’s been awhile.
That stupid car accident threw me for a bit of a loop and although I’d love to be hitting the weights I know right now just isn’t the best time for that.
Instead I have been doing 90 minutes of Vinyasa twice a week, walking a lot (I mean really a lot, my son and I play Pokémon Go) and I am going to go back to my squat/ab challenge tonight.
I really want to push myself to hit my surgeon’s first goal which is 175.
I am only 7 lbs away.
What I’d really like to do is blow PAST that but all I can do is try.
What frustrates me at 11 months out? That my BMI is 32.2 and I am still considered “obese”. What the fuck!!! LOL.
But I realize that it’s obese for “me” and my height and where I am now and where I will be.
I realize I didn’t think this was ever going to be a quick fix.
I realize that I am more than halfway to my goal.

Here’s to next month…holy crap 1 year surgiversary here I come!!!!

      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.
