Hello all!

I am 5 months out and a 100lbs down. I am honestly so grateful that I got the opportunity to have this operation done. I don’t miss my old life style at all, I now love the gym, I love my lean protein and veggie meals, I love being able to shop anywhere without worrying about if they’ll carry my size, I love not worrying about taking up too much space on public transport, I love running about everywhere and not feeling the excess weight on my knees and feet.

Have I had bad days?? Of course! One day I ate an entire block of brie, another day I ate a slice of pizza. But the difference is now I don’t let my mistakes define. One bad meal isn’t going to get me back where I started. One bad meal isn’t the end of my journey. I accept it, and move on. Maybe i’ll move around even more the next day.

I have another 30lbs to go until I hit my goal weight, I will never ever ever be skinny, because i’m naturally curvy and you know what? That’s ok. I own these curves and i’m healthy and curvy!

It will fly in! What a great way to start the year xx

You look awesome!! Good for you lady. We have similar beginning weight. I think I was 298 day of surgery. How tall are you? I’m not trying to lose my natural curves either. Don’t want to get below 180 to be honest.

Incredible! You look fantastic!!! Thank you for sharing

Congratulations! These type of posts are awesome!! What's your exercise regime like?

Thank you all! My exercise routine is pretty basic! I do 45 minutes 5 days a week. 30 minutes of cardio and 15 minutes of weight training. I am pretty active outside of the gym too. I do a lot of walking and running around the place but honestly, in my experience exercise hasn’t played a massive part in actually losing weight it just helps with maintenance and overall health

You look amazing! But the best part??? That fantastic smile!!!!

WTG girlie! Adorable! Congrats on your hard work and commitment!

Congratulations! Well done!

You look amazing. Yesterday I am one month out and I've lost 36llbs. I feel like I'm loosing slower but I also feel accomplished. Seeing your pics and hearing your words of wisdom really makes me feel like I'm on the right path.

Good luck w/ your journey!!!!

Isn't it odd , we can eat the same amount of calories, do the same amount of exercise, even the same amount of protein, one person loses 36 pounds, one 15 and the third just stalls. So we are all different, but each of us occupies a certain location in the scheme of things, But we interlock. like puzzle pieces on a giant game table. I often wonder how it will appear when this group all finishes. ????
