I've lost a total of 80 pounds and I'm so proud of myself. I didn't even realize how big my face was until a memory came up on my Facebook feed. 40 pounds away from my ultimate goal weight! post-288210-14693998591702_thumb.jpg post-288210-14693997324614_thumb.jpg post-288210-14693997521795_thumb.jpg

Wow, that's awesome how you lost that much weight so fast. You look amazing! How did you lose so much so fast? What types of meals did you have? What types of exercise(s) did you do? Looking for helpful advice.

I stick to what was suggested by my surgeon and work my ass off in the gym. Now changing to circuit and weight training and still doing my cardio. I currently hit a stall (second one) so I'm a little frustrated but I have had amazing progress so I try not to beat myself up too much.

Also I am still not eating any "bad carbs". Some surgeons say after three months you can have brown rice etc. not m surgeon he said 6-8 months. I stick to my portions. I drink my Water (I've had troubles with this twice). I do walk run inside the gym and on the track 4-5 times a week. Sometimes twice a day!

I admire your discipline and dedication. Thanks so much for the advice! I'm going to take it. I had made up my mind to also do the same thing like a low carb/paleo type diet and not reintroduce starches (i.e. bread, rice, pasta--if any) until one year (that's the point which my doctor recommends it, except quinoa, kashi Cereal, and some type of oats which all have Protein in them). I'm still not trying to do those too much if any because of the carbs.

I have been doing cardio walking/running and/or Rockin' Body workouts. I need to get in the gym for the circuit training/weight training. For me, it's been 5 weeks since my surgery so I planned on starting to work out with weights after the 6 week mark. I've done some arms with just the small 3 lb weights once or twice. Keep up the good work! Thanks again!

For hardcore workouts with weights 6 weeks. For cardio you can start slow after your doctor clears you. Thanks a million for the compliment!!

I hit one at 258 and I'm now at a stall at 216. You will hit Ayala from time to time but change up your exercise regimen a little. That's what gets me back on track. Good luck!!!

Blue and grey romper I was 275. When I had my procedure I was 301 and I am now 201! My goal is 180. ????????

You look amazing!! I'm hoping my weight day of surgery will be around 300 and my ultimate goal is 180 but I'll be ok at 200. How has your skin done with the weight loss? All lot of excess??? You are definitely motivation and inspiration!! #WeightLossGoals

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      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!!
