Had my 3 month checkup today starting weight 268 weight today 203 starting pant size 22 24 pant size now 16 shirt size 3x now shirt size large the doctor said I'm doing really well with my weight loss seeing as how I don't have a lot of weight to lose slow and steady is best. I'm really never sure if I'm doing this right. I can snack till the cows come home but can't seam to enjoy a meal. I'm sure I'll figure this out.

Ur story spunds very familiar... I went on my 3month check up last week. Starting weight 223lbs and now Im 156lbs... Sometimes I feel like maybe I should be losing faster and other times Im like okay your pacing along... My goal is 135lbs although thats still an over weight bmi for my height. Im 5" tall. But who knows maybe that'll changed the closer I get...

Sounds... Cellphone typing lol

Holly time will go really fast. Six months soundslike such a long time but while you're working the program you are learning a lot of new things. Enjoy your journey.

Ok here's a 6 month update.

I see my Dr on Jan 4th so Ill just tell you what I know.

I am down to one medication, have lost 78 pounds, wear a large blouse(from 3x) size 14 16 pant (from 24)

7 1/2 shoe (from 8 1/2) size 8 under wear (from 11).

Husband took me shopping and I stood in front of the mirror and cried cuz I looked so damn

nice in stylish clothes. then went to Victoria secrets for a new bra and cried cuz i looked so awful in

none at all. Trying to get all this extra me into a bra was heart wrenching.

I read all the articals about skin etc, looked at many pictures but it was so different when

it was mine. it seemed to have happened all the sudden.

but at 55 there's not much opportunity for me to be naked anyhow so Ill just keep buying

nice clothes.

The complements come daily and at times its a little embaressing to know so many people are looking at me.

I also know some day it will stop. And people who see me for the first time wont know the strugles I have faced.

So I guess to some it up I am doing well, trying to learn about my new body and surprised when I bend down to pick something up and dont loose my breath.

I miss my big boobs, but like the small shirts.. I am just babbaling now so I shall say good night . Ill let yall know how Dr apt goes on the 4th. sorry about the spelling....

      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.

      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!!
