70lbs! Need support



Recommended Posts

You know what's funny, after I wrote this post I went to my HIIT class and the trainer said "wow, your getting skinny!". It confirms my belief that I just don't see myself the way others do. It gave me a great boost to keep going though!

That's so great!!! :) :) :)

OH MY GOSH! Celebrate THAT LOSS!!! I HAD A HARD TIME MAKING MYSELF STOP STOP STOP WEARING MY BIG CLOTHES THAT DIDN'T FIT ANY MORE TOO. I MEAN YOU COULD'VE PUT A PILLOW IN THE SEAT OF MY JEANS WITH ME...ANYWAY I FINALLY GAVE IN (CUZ I'M MONEY CONSCIOUS TOO) AND GOT SOME JEANS ETC AT GOOD WILL. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND DOING THIS BECAUSE YOU WON'T BE IN THEM BUT A FEW MONTHS IF THAT. I FELT LIKE I WASN'T LOSING SLOWLY SO I DID BUY SOME GOOD STUFF AT RETAIL STORES BUT NOW I'VE HAD TO DONATE IT BECAUSE IT TOO WAS FALLING OFF. SO GOOD WILL, THRIFT ETC HELPED ME. BUT NOW I'M PRETTY MUCH A TIGHT 16 IF ITS NOT STRETCHY MATERIAL AND WEAR A LARGE SHIRT. I DID BUY A HUGE BAG OF NEW STUFF YESTERDAY BUT ALL THE LAST BATCH OF CLOTHES I BOUGHT WERE TOO BIG AGAIN. BUT I WEAR STUFF THAT IS FITTED AND LOVE IT. EXCEPT ITS WEIRD WHEN PEOPLE WHO KNEW YOU BEFORE OR NOT KINDA SCAN YOUR BODY. CELEBRATE!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
