Finally under 300lbs again!



Recommended Posts

Celebrating my first mini victory. Stepped on the scale this morning and finally broke out of the threes. Weighed in at 299.6. Haven't been under 300 in at least 5 years. My weight has always been a roller coaster but when I crossed back over 300 years ago it was really depressing for me.

When I first started this journey in May 2016 I climbed back up to 354 lbs. I'm only 3 weeks post-op as of tomorrow, and despite having a bumpy journey the first two weeks I'm so thrilled to see the progress. I've lost 18 lbs since surgery and a total of 36 lbs since starting the two week pre-op diet. I'll take a 36 lb loss in 5 weeks!

Long way to go yet but excited for the rest of the journey! :D

Thanks! It's been a rough ride at times but today was one of those days where it felt like it's all been worth it. This is my first of hopefully many more milestones to reach :D

Orionburn, Congrats!!! Way to go. Keep it up and drink Water, eat Protein and walk walk walk. I just had my one year anniversary and it was the BEST thing I have ever done for myself. One year out I'm passed my goal. I run 4 miles a day now and have more energy then ever. YOU can do this and I promise it is worth it. Keep up the good work!!!

Second mini victory today - another 25 lbs done and down to 275 as of this morning! The past month saw a lot of slowdown but the scale has finally started moving again this last week. Long way to go yet but getting there slowly but surely! :D

I'm been work harder to down 300lbs since my gastric sleeve surgery last January 9 but almost down to 300lbs not yet! So I will see doctor in weeks how much I'm lose weight after my surgery..

I got over 300lbs since I was high school and I would work harder to lose 300lbs

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
