Weighed in 278.4 day of surgery, 178.4 this morning. Sleeved 8/1 so just a bit over 10 months out.

Also, I'm officially out of the "overweight" BMI range. (my info says 25 but BMI calc says I'm justttt under it)

8/1 (surgery) - 1/18 (about halfway between then and now) - 6/11 (today!)

I'm 8.4lbs away from my initial goal but I think I might adjust to 150. Trying to get some kind of body fat testing done per suggestions in a thread I posted earlier this week so I can get a better idea of what's fat and what's skin.

How do you guys and gals get the weight tracker thing?

I'm on mobile so sorry that my instructions aren't exact, I don't have the links to reference at the moment, but if you go to edit your profile (upper right corner, where you can edit your current weight and see the "my surgery" page and stuff) there's a section called "my tickers" or something along those lines that lets you create and edit a tracker for your signature. (I'm assuming that's what you're referring to--let me know if you mean something else)

You look fantastic!!!! You're inspiring me!!! My surgery is in 3 months ? I can't wait.

Congrats you do look Amazing

Go on Play store on your phine there are tons of free apps to use. I use "monitor your weight" I like it because of the graph and the way it tracks your progress.

Thank you! Luckily my skin isn't as saggy as it could have ended up being but this is definitely a flattering photo in that regard haha. My upper thighs and around my belly button have little skin aprons from the weight loss. I don't exercise nearly as much as I should--probably 1-2x per week--and a standard day for me is probably about 75-95g protein, 50-60g fat, 10-20g carb. I only have a shake if I'm under 75g protein, but usually it comes from food, lots of meat in my diet. I just came out of a 2 month long stall, I thought I had just completely stopped losing weight but then had a whoosh of weight loss this week. How's your Water intake? Increasing water was the only real difference I made when my stall broke, not sure if it's coincidence or not. Best of luck and no need to be sorry for the questions, I'm happy to answer anything I can

I am two weeks out from my 10 months and just hit 100 pounds lost - I have been in a two-month stall and it's killing me >_< but my food intake could be better any suggestions on how you broke yours other than water increase. You look fantastic congratulations.

I didn't really make any conscious changes but looking at my food log, it looks like I was a bit stricter on my carb intake and was experimenting a bit more with food--my boyfriend started doing the ketogenic diet and he was getting more on track with his eating when my stall broke so I guess that influenced my eating as well? We were trying a ton of recipes from the low-cal ketogenic community. Good luck & thanks! Congrats to you as well!

You look wonderful, and your ski looks amazing. Thanks for sharing this it's a great inspiration!

congratulstions to you!

Congrats, what's the ketogenic diet

Low carb, high fat Though I do focus more on protein so I'm not sure if it's true-keto. The big thing for me was watching carbs.

So awesome congratulations [emoji322][emoji898][emoji324][emoji323]
