Anyone scheduled for surgery in January 2018? I'm booked in for the 12th. Would be nice to chat to people in the same stage x

I’m right there with you @yes_anastasia, I also need to be more diligent with an exercise routine. Well... to be honest I do not have a routine anymore. I do good to make it to the gym at all in a weeks time. I know that my body needs it but I feel so mentally drained by the end of a work week that all I want to do is rest and do whatever I need to do around the house and nothing extra.

On a side note. I am getting ready for a business trip and it calls for “casual business” attire... I have none... So I went shopping yesterday ?. It is so weird for me to not go directly to the Big & Tall section. After getting some sizes together and trying on clothes that were to big ?, I finally settled in to XL shirts and 36 waist pants! I was in denial at first and it took a while looking in the mirror to realize that this is who I am right now. Last July I was in 4XL shirts and 48 waist pants! To say I am happy about my progress is a little on an understatement!

Just wanted to share! Happy losing y’all!!

What a great week it’s been for me. I just killed an interview that might be life changing and I’m down 4lbs from last week.

Have a great week all!!

This week has gone well for me too. I’m down to 210lbs. I hope to be under 200lbs when I go back to he doctor the first week in October. I also interviewed for a new job and they are checking references so things seem to be going exceptionally well for me right now. Also I should work out more too!

I'm currently at 89.5ilbs down and I can honestly say for the first time since I had the op that I'm glad I did it.

I was so happy last night when I measured my body and in total I've lost 153cm so far!

I love walking, I love having small controlled portions and though my weight loss has dropped to 1-1.5lbs per week I know it's going in the right direction and I will get to target soon.

This site and all you wonderful people who helped along the way was indispensable to the success of my journey, which I hope continues until I hit target.

Well, well, well it’s that day of the week again. Monday marked the first time I can remember I’ve been under 250lbs. So I’m happy to say I’m currently at 248 and that’s another 4lbs from last week.

Well done @Marc76! So I'm stalling bad... Still at 158. Trying to mix it up a little but no joy. Will keep plodding along x

Keep pushing forward @MsTipps your stall will break soon!

Finally broke my stall!! I'm at 155 today yay! Final 15! Hope you're all doing well xx

I’m having a tough week. I gained a pound (not actually overall concerned about that). From eating more carbs for the last few days in anticipation of 2 triathlons this weekend. Because I can’t carbo load the plan is to eat a little more everyday than my normal, but it’s also a rest week so this is really hard. Eat more and let your body chill. Ugh. I’m now 9lbs from onederland and I want it bad. Anyway. Glad to hear you guys are all doing well.

Great job @MsTipps keep up the hard work!

@soccerkaty WOW that's very impressive. Way to go not 1 but 2 Tri's this weekend.

I plained this week, but I"m not worried.

Keep up the strong work this week you two!

Good morning folks! I'm at 153lbs. Another 2lbs closer to goal! Thats a little over 89% of my excess weight since surgery day - 8 months ago. Can't believe it. How are you guys getting on? Xx

Wow @ Ms Tibbs! What great results! I hope I can acheive,89% also.

I’m losing weight so slowly now, I’ve gone back to tracking my food and whatnot. Hopefully even if it doesn’t speed up I get back on course. I’ve lost 3lbs this week after essentially only losing 4lbs in all of August. Fingers crossed for a better month. I’m so close to 199...

Hey bariatric babes! I bet you're all doing fab! Weightloss has slowed for sure but look how far we've all come! This time last year I was 300lbs. Today I'm 150. I'm 10lbs from goal and hoping to be there for Xmas. I never thought this was possible. Yes, there's been bumps in the road, I've fucked up a few times but this has been an exciting journey so far! No regrets xx

I agree no regrets but my progress is for sure not as fast as your. I want to lose 5 pounds so badly. I’m at like 201-202 and holding. Patience is not a virtue I possess, but this experience has made me better at it.
