Today I'm 184 and based on the BMI calculator I'm no longer Obese now is Overweight at 29.7 BMI, this is a big accomplishment! haven't seen this number for over a decade :) This last three months have been slow weight loss (11 pound loss in those 3 months), but I'm happy I could tell my clothes feels much better. Plus I know its not a race I know I will get to my goal weight, I just have to stay focus.

Fantastic! I haven't checked my BMI. I need to do that and see where I am. Keep plugging along!

You should try it @@lorri716, it made me feel really good, starting with a 40 BMI and now been in the upper 20's just made me see the huge improvement I've had throughout this journey.

Anyone with dreadlocks who has Hair loss? Just curious how this will work with middle back length full adult locks.

I personally don't have any experience with dreadlocks. I did had bad hair loss it started at 3 months and it lasted until I was 5 1/2 months, now it's much better. I did notice the hair loss was more when I took a shower or when I brushed my hair.

Hi there, how has your progress been?

I've been doing g pretty good. I'm stuck at 186 for the last week. But I'm ok with it. I know the scale will move again, I just hope it's sooner rather than later. How's it going for you?

Good morning. I'm on vacation in Virginia Beach with my best friend, give me the strength to get through these next couple days without completely going off the deep end with food and alcohol lol. I'm just hoping to get through without a gain. Wish me luck.

@@lorri716 it sounds so much fun! Enjoy your time with your friend. Just try to stick with Protein first. I notice when I don't eat the protein at the times I should I start looking for something to eat and sometimes is not the best option. Take lots of pictures!!

Have been out for awhile. Happy to hear all are doing well. I am 6 months out now and down to 144lbs. Feeling really good. So much energy. Eating most foods but in small amounts and sticking to my new food choices. I do like layes potato chips thats my weakness. Still want to lose 15 more lbs.

      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! 😞
