Well little sis, I think I am just about ready to topple back into the 200s, and I could cry💦 I feared I'd never be down there again. So what if my clothing size isn't yet changing, the lower I go the quicker it will happen. And although 175 and a size 15 junior are still my dreams, I really would find anything under 200 acceptable. But just for the hey nonny nonny, let's see how low I can go! Things may balk, stall and move slowly, but fall of 2019- spring of 2020, I will be looking👀so good! Big Mama is going to be Hot Mama, and even if I am fatal to some, those men gonna have happy on their faces! Won't need so much mortician skills, will they?

Never argue with someone who believes all their own lies. Smile sweetly and do what you have to do for YOU.

Some days I amaze me that I can do this and do it well. And then there was the day I put the laundry in the oven, Tomkitten hasn't let me live THAT down! At least I didn't put the frozen chicken in the washer, now that would be bad, might send me b to the Rubber Room Folks!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
