Teens of the 1960's



Recommended Posts

Just read in a post from 2012 someone calling us the "teens of the 1960's. That has made me laugh all day. Hope this brings a smile to others on this site. Sleeved on May 20th and have been on stall for the last 8 days. Reading that others are experiencing same thing really helps.

Yes, teens of the 60s resonates with me. I graduated from HS in 1969 so I truly am a child of the 60s. Nice to meet other 60s. Here are my details:

sleeved on dec 1, 2014

sw 236

cw190...today was the first time I saw this 190.

I have been on a plateau with no movement on the scale for 2 months. it is discouraging but other things have changed. Dress size 18 to 14

Yesterday I finally bought new bras..I was 44D. Yesterday 38 C. Yes that is progress.

Still fighting daily exercise as a habit.

Never heard that expression before, but I guess I'll embrace it!

I was also sleeved on May 20 and have been plagued with a 9 day stall. I even gained back two pounds which did not make me happy! This morning I had a pleasant surprise when I stepped on the scale and had lost the two regained pounds and also another pound and a half. I have done nothing different and have eaten by my nutrition booklet and I exercise every day. Today I started back to work so I hope just the stress of dropping back into the rat race took another pound off my belly. ???? I will find out when I weigh again on Sunday!

I did finally drop a 1/2 more. I'm not really concerned because I know weight has to come off sometime. So different from how I have felt on different weight loss attempts. An eight day stall would have put me in depression.

I'm so glad to hear that someone else had a 9 day stall that was sleeved on same day. Also glad you lost the 2 pounds and more. I will weigh on Sunday too.

Sharing a recipe I also shared on May sleevers, I made a pancake today with 2 tbs unflavored Quest Protein mix, 1 egg and about 1 tbs of milk to make desired consistency. Also added some stevia and cinnamon. I found it very satisfying with sugar free Syrup. Endless possibilities on expanding recipe. Read it in and older post.

Oh so encouraging that I could be where you are in a few months. I started at 237, am looking forward to those new bra sizes. Down 20 pounds and already getting positive comments. Still having trouble with Water and being nauseous.

      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! 😞
