17 pounds to my goal of 150, seems like it's taking forever!! I had two parties to attend to over the weekend. I've made it the norm to decline most parties because I'm weak and have little willpower, however these parties were two very close friends so I had to attend. Yep I was weak , when it comes to Desserts that is. food at both parties were no problem, both served grilled chicken and salad . But why can't I stay away from high sugar food!! Ugh!! Granted I don't eat Desserts like I used to, now I just picked at it, but it still went in my mouth and tasted like heaven!

It's Monday now and back to my usual routine and exercise, grateful there are no parties coming up until September

I'm so happy for you! I realized that the more weight I gained, the more friends/hobbies I lost. It wasn't their fault... it was mine. I just crawled into myself because of my insecurities. I'm sad about the years I've wasted, but 1 week in, I'm so glad I didn't waste the rest of my life. ;)

Enjoy!!!!!

I look back now and could kick myself in the butt for not doing it sooner in life and/or not sticking to a diet. I'm 52 years old and I'm the healthiest I've been in over 30 years.. Crazy when you think of it. You had your surgery a week ago? First couple of weeks are rough but you need to heal, after you are on solid foods it's smooth sailing. Good luck to you! Keep me posted

For the past month I've been joining the different classes my gym offers. Twice a week I do power classes which is strength training with the use of weights and barbell. Once a week I take an active class which is cardio and strength combined. Two to three times a week is Zumba or grove both dance cardio and once to twice a week a centergy which is yoga, strength, core and balance. All awesome classes. I also hike, swim, walk, and elliptical when I'm not at classes. I would have never done or could do this a year ago. This journey is just amazing to me. I still look in the mirror and think "who are you" then say to myself , wow you are one hot grandma ! Lol

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
