One month Surgiversary! Down 24 lbs.

  • Popular Post

I am so pleased to say that Jan 5 marked my one month surgiversary and I am down 24 lbs from my surgery day weight of 219 lbs ( currently 195 lbs). But the real kicker is my starting weight pre op was 242 lbs so total lost is 47 lbs , yessss. Also, my birthday was Jan 5 as well and I am a beautiful 39 years young may I add. So excited and looking forward to more success in near future. My goal is 150 lbs. motivation is on point to reach it.

    @ eclecticavatar...Thank you for the compliment. But I don't really feel I'm crushing it. I get discouraged because some are losing way faster than me but my inches are flying off. I just try to get in 60 G Protein daily n my Water as well as Greek yogurt, re fried Beans , asparagus, grilled chicken. I can't eat a lot because my sleeve is picky but I do my best . I am now down 26 lbs and it's almost 6 weeks. If I had not had the surgery, there's no way the weight would be gone. Celebrate other victories beside just the scale. If you saw me in person , I don't look 191 so I take pride in the inches that are falling off. So I don't get bummed anymore when I see some people who have lost 45 lbs or some huge number that had surgery around the same date as myself.... why, because I tell myself I look good and some people lose it and you can't see it but mine is super noticeable so I take pride in that and so should you. 15 lbs gone is great ... I should have taken measurements but I didn't but I do advise you to measure yourself so that you can track inches lost. I measure mine by my clothes that I was busting out of and they are now falling off and the waist is huge on me. So that's how I know. Stay strong . We are gonna rock this thing. Just takes a lil time.

    Congratulations! I am one month out today and I have only lost 15 pounds since my day of surgery. Any loss is good loss, so I'm excited, but I wonder if you have any tips for crushing it the way that you are!
