@@moppet I did (and do) work out regularly, but early on I just started with walking and then super low-impact aerobics. Working out is great for your health and important in maintenance but remember that what is most critical is your diet. You know what they say -- and it's all true -- the battle to lose weight is won in the kitchen, not in the gym. Follow your eating plan religiously, track everything, and stay away from crappy, high carb, nutrition-free foods and you will do great.

I had to chime in because I'm so excited!

I started as a 20W; surgery day I was 18W. When I went shopping this weekend, I bought a size 8! Most of my things are 10, and the 8's are still a little tight, but *happy dance*! I'm buying single digits! It's unreal.

Yes. I started at a size 15 in jeans. I am now a size 4. I got real emotional in the fitting room. I stood there for about 20 minutes saying I can't believe that I am the size I was when I was in high school. It's a great feeling.

Started at a TIGHT 18w should probably have been a 20.

I said when I started I would be THRILLED to make single digit sizes.

I am now a 4!

Started at a 20W and after three months, I'm in a 14 misses. In tops, I went from a 2X to a L/XL. I hope to go down at least two more sizes by September but one size is probably more realistic.

Goodwill has received 8 huge bags of clothes from me and my closet is empty. I only buy things on sale now since I know I won't wear them for long

Started at a tight 22W, I'm a week shy of 6 months out and I'm in a comfortable 12-14 depending on brand and large tops. I would like to get down to a 10 but my weight loss has been super slow the last 2 months so it might be a while.

I was up to a 52x32 pant size.. right now at 36-40x32 and they vary on tightness/looseness.

i had went nuts shopping in the US for clothes, in PA where it was tax-free for those, with the 36-40s, but my weight gain happened so fast I literally outgrew them in a matter of weeks and was unable to wear them. I kept them around for several years until my weight plummeted back down to now and can wear them comfortably. They still look brand new.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
