How long did you lose weight for?



Recommended Posts

@@Kittymappus At 10 months I was probably close to 1400 calories a day, doing cardio 5 days a week. I know I had to quickly push up over 1100 calories a day in order to do any sort of intense cardio and once I got to the point where I was running 5k's again, I needed closer to that 1400 mark.

Hello Everyone,

It's been a while since I have been on here. It will be 2.5 years in June. I was steadily loosing until November 2015. And the holiday pounds crept up on me and I gained 10lbs. It might as well be 50lbs. I am determined to NOT gain any more weight, but boy it's hard to get it off. I have started running and working out again, but it SUCKS. I look in the mirror and see those pounds trying to creep back up. I refuse to get back where I was. REFUSE! Now when I feel like I'm lazy I look in the mirror (and sad as it sounds) I am disgusted that I let myself gain it. The good thing is I now know what my major weight gainers are.....CARBS....those EVIL carbs. That I cut out 100%. They came knocking at my door all nice and sweet. Well, they just got the door slammed in their face! It's not happening. I used to like looking in the mirror, but those 10lbs have GOT TO GO!!!!! Good luck to everyone!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
