That's a real special story about you and your sisters. I can't wait for them to hug you and get their arms around you also.

SpecialK that is so encouraging to hear how your family is pulling for you. I know they will love putting their arms all the way around you. I hope your stress level eases a bit so you can relax. Good for you sticking to your workouts. That is the part of this equation we can't overlook.

Don't go by a scale that you don't use on a regular basis. Gym scales are notorious for being out of balance.

Hi Shamrocks,

Just wanted to let you know that I'm still trucking! I had to move out into the country for work, I don't have the internet so I don't get to check anything at all very often! I miss hearing the stories, the triumphs, the tears and the challenges of our group. We are almost hitting our one year anniversary, mine is only 2 weeks away. I hope everyone is still on track and staying strong. Miss you all!

Much love and best wishes,

Annie xoxox

Ewww, I am so with you guys today. I really tried, but my Monday was Purgatory. My other-work-half is on vaca in Florida this week (yes, I hate her life right now), so I was slammed from the moment I walked into work until the moment I left. Let me rephrase, 'the moment I left' means the moment that I walked into my front door and plugged in my laptop, only to continue to work until well after 7pm. I was actually in my gym clothes (I am lucky to have a fully equipped gym at work) when I received an asap order for 12 people, to start tonight. Oh well, there goes fate making sure that I don't get to the gym yet again. I am trying to take solace in the fact that my eating was very much in line today, and I moved around every chance I got. Tomorrow is another day (thanks Scarlett!), so I will change into my gym clothes yet again tomorrow and pray for at least 30 peaceful minutes. Good luck this week ya'll!

I myself am no fan of Mondays as well. I have the weekend off, then work 25 hours to start the week.. Ugh, does it drag!

I woke up this morning to 27" of snow. So much for the 8-12 forcasted. We just got 18" Thursday.. I was out at 6am in my flannel pjs trying to find my Jeep. What a cruel joke this winter has been!

Hopefully this week moves along quickly, Daytona bound in 3 days!!

Between frozen pipes, a chimney fire, 500 feet of snow, and a propane leak over that last 2 weeks, I've never needed a vacation so bad.

Here's to my first time out of New England!! WOOT!!

(:Hope you all have a great week:)

Ewww K-Pod, you definitely deserve that vaca! I have never left the US, so I undertand your enthusiasm about traveling abroad. I hope you have a blast!

Everyone has been pretty quiet this week, hope all is well.

I just wanted to let you guys know that I have collar bones. Who knew?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
