Paula you look great! What do you mean you can't see the difference? I can't believe the difference from just when I saw you last! You look so thin, and beautiful! You need to look at those pictures again! :D

I have been galumphing around the house for the last week, coughing, sneezing, and feeling sorry for myself, unable to work or finish grad school assignments (yet strangely able to log on to LBT). I decided I needed a pick-me-up a couple of minutes ago, so I looked at all three pages of before-and-after photos.

You all are amazing!

What an inspiration. I will take my next swig of cough Syrup with a big smile on my face, thanks to everyone who posted pictures. I hope to post my own later this month -- but no bikini for me. Ever. Keep up the great losses!

WOW, WOW, AND TRIPLE WOW, everyone looks amazing, just amazing, keep up the good work, all of you look fantastic, just fantastic, can't wait for me to drop some more weigh, I haven't been doing good, cause I've been cheating, cheating there I confessed, I sat in bed and ate three pieced of Godiva chocolate on Valentines Day, I am so bad.

Only three pieces, Estela? That's not much, certainly not enough to beat yourself up over. An entire five-pound box might be a different story.:D Don't think of chocolate as "cheating"; you're not dieting anymore, remember? Think of it as a little present to yourself -- not something you want to make a habit of, but OK as an occasional small indulgence. Meanwhile, you've lost 23 lbs. in just two months. Fantastic!

Paula,

You look great, and can definately see a big difference. Don't do that to yourself (it's my job to do it to myself, LOL). I sometimes can't see a difference in my body, but other people ALWAYS notice. Keep up the good work. You look great!

Zoe I have to confess some more, I had other pieces of chocolate on Friday, and Monday, the kids had their V.D. parties at school and I didn't want their candy to go to waste so I ate some of it. You know funny thing is that I wasn't craving any chocolate or sweets until there was a thread on chocolate that I read last week and now I can't get it out of my mind or mouth. But I promise I will start eating healthy again. Thanks for the encouragement and I want to let you know that I finally found a Dr. that will fill me here in Florida, so I am scheduled to get filled on March. 1. HOORAY!!!!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
