Hi People... maybe you remember me, maybe not..

I have not come to this site for a while.. I got a little reminder in my email. lol

I just wanted to tell about how I have been..

I have lost a bit over 100 pounds... its still off..

Recently I lost 15 pounds in two months, but that was a month ago..

I gave up on candy, that ONE thing, just candy, THAT was how the 15 pounds came off, obviously, as I had not been loosing any weight in a long time..

The band keeps me maintained... I KNOW if I got an unfill (I gag or 'puke' daily)....... I would gain it all back.... But its done with loss... ITS ON ME NOW, and we will see if I take this 15 pound loss and do more with it...

My band is fine.. I had an endoscopy... its been 2 and 1/2 years.

I am still 300 pounds.. so I DO wish I could have a mini gastric bypass..

BUT, I appreciate my band and all it has done so far... MY NON scale VICTORIES are OMG AMAZING..

I was in a wheele chair two years ago... NOW I walk... Thats the big one..

Anyway... thanks for all your support, this is a really nice site.

Hey, Nykee, great to see you! What an amazing NSV, being able to walk after living life in a wheelchair. That right there will go further towards improving your health than anything you can imagine. Just keep walking!

You look wonderful--and it's good to hear your band is OK. Congratulations on your weight loss and keep it up!

Nykee: You look wonderful! I think this site must be helping you as you seem to let it all out here.

that's great!

I just love hearing about the Non scale Victories.

I have surgery tomorrow! Wow! I have at least 100 lbs to lose. I know this is a tool and I will have just the beginning of the journey to deal with for a while, but one day I will be celebrating, as so many do here!

Nykee,

Great to see you! Congratulations on your weight loss and your incredible NSV of not needing a wheelchair anymore.

It sounds like just a few modifications to your diet will allow you to lose the weight that you desire. Good luck in your journey and keep us posted on how you're doing.

Tricia

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
