@queenbee88! Here you go hon! ?

Hello Ladies, It seems that I post every weekend. My week went great i have been walking non-stop including sweating when I walked to work yesterday i felt like someone was chasing me. I even brought lunch to work and I am saving extra money. Walking with my hands on my hips keeps me balanced and holding on to the railing along the walk. My calves were hurting but I walked stop walked and stop while pacing myself. I even kept my calories in check and water in take like crazy. Beautiful pictures @Newme17 love the collages. Hi @Apple1 sexxy mama love the excitement of your hubby seeing a new look. Ladies, you are all in thoughts throughout the day and I haven't been dancing a lot just a little bit here and there but when I am work i rise out of my seat for everything just to keep my strength up. My 12 year old on Thursday thought i was going to get a cab but i walk home instead talk about shocking her. Thank you all for everything love you all

Ok ladies here are my photos. I have to post them one at a time because I don't have software to do a collage. I added my drivers license photo because that is me at my highest weight 255. The first one was taken last year with my grandson. Sorry it isn't the best photo, but the best i could fine. The next one was this morning before my haircut and the last one After. No belly shots because I never thought to take any befores.

Thank you @Sweet as peaches. It is good to hear you are doing so well.

i keep forgetting that you live in NYC. If I was waiting for a cab around here it would be a long wait.. lol.. I am envious that you live close enough to work that you can walk. I have a 1 hour commute each way.

Thank you @Newme17. My dh said the same. We went to our daughters house for dinner. She made Chilli for him for Father's Day and it was a little spicy. My sleeve handled pretty well no heartburn yet...

we will have breakfast in bed tomorrow ?

Hey where can I get more recipes from

Hi @queenbee88. There is a forum specifically for sharing recipes on this site. Pinterest is another good place. Also if you google recipes for WLS you will find many. I hope this helps.

What stage does your plan have you at now? How are you doing overall?
