TWO, what a wonderful number



Recommended Posts

Morning Gents. 297! $%#@^&%*&^!YEAH!!! This is the first time there has been a "2" as the first number of my weight since 1993. All sorts of great numbers are happening in close proximity. 18# ago I hit 200 lost, 2# ago I broke into the 200's, in 2 more # I will have lost 2/3 of my extra weight, and in 4 more # I will break through to the 30's for BMI. All that yumminess from a guy who was 515 10 months ago. SO YES BOYS, GREAT THINGS DO HAPPEN...Now onto my next goal. YEEEEEeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaa....(that's me driving off to the gym).

Keep up all of your hard work 'cause I want to hear your success stories too.

I started in s-t-r-e-c-h-y 5 x, now mostly 2x, except for button up cotton shirts, 3x. I could wear 2x button up shirts and only stand! They pull across the belly when I sit. Thank God I just pushed my "these are too small now" clothes to the back of the closet as I was getting bigger because they are now the vein that I am tapping. However, that supply (as am I), is dwindling. E bay is a godsend for "these will only fit me for three months" clothes. I found some nice things I didn't have in my stache.

@@DavidOso Outstanding! That is terrific news! Breaking the 300 lb threshold has to feel like a great achievement!

@@Thucydides I see you started 3# heavier than me. You have JUST 31# to go to break into the 200's. You are right, I have felt very "glowy" today.

Hit the "2/3" mark this morning (220# lost). I had a t-shirt made yesterday with the 2/3 in great big football numbers, it is being worn to the gym today.

Question for the international crowd(possibly with British ties), How much does a "stone" weigh? I have heard of people losing "blah-blah stone", but just have no reference for how much that is. Thanks.

      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! 😞
