Hello my fellow WLS peeps. I am on a mission to lose 50 pounds that I have regained. I am feeling hopeful and know that getting back to basics will do it. I would like this thread to be a place where we can come and be transparent and accountable. I plan on checking in with a weigh in every Monday starting tomorrow. If you want to join me, let's do this!

Heightist weight: 289

Lowest: 157

Goal: 150

Attached is my before surgery pic, me at my lowest and where I am today.

May God bless you and keep you[emoji173]️

Liz, your picture is amazing! I know we all have a number we want to stay at, but you look fantastic! Great legs!!!

Slim Dreams, your story is tough. I'm so sorry about the miscarriages. Having a bad day is going to happen, but you are aware and are working on getting things back on track..... we can only do our best.

Thank you. I'm trying. My thighs are my enemies. I am trying to tone them by doing the 12 weeks challenge

You seriously look fabulous!

Don't I know it about the thighs... my entire legs are my enemies. My legs will be the last to go. They've haunted me my whole life. Even as a kid. Sucked.

Which 12 week challenge? I've done the Nike XBox Challenge... way harder than I anticipated. If you don't jump high enough or wide enough or squat low enough, it doesn't count it. Dang, Gina! I'm doing a weights/resistance routine right now, plus an hour on the elliptical at least five days a week. It's helping me get there. I REEEEALLY want to be 160 by October. I need to consistently lose a pound a week.
