I've lost 100 pounds today!



Recommended Posts

Yeah, It took 15 months, but I was down 100 pounds today. I can't believe. It's almost embarrassing to even say it. I still have 35-40 pounds to go, but now I believe I can get there. My skin is awful. I have been feeling really self conscious in the last month with the warmer weather. Everything is loose and shakes and it's just discouraging. Sometimes I feel like I look worse, even though I know it's not true. Any advice??

Hope everyone is well.

As the summer has approached, I've had a problem with my skin. I have some lose skin on my arms (I still have around 70 pounds to go) and cottage cheese thighs. I don't even own a pair of shorts! I went to the beach this past weekend and my DH commented that I looked weird wearing jeans on the beach. I've been hitting the net and the boards to find out what to do. The best advise (other than plastic surgery) is a tan. They have a lot of new self-tanners out there that aren't orange or leave you looking like wallpaper (streaks). Having a little color to you skin helps diminish the skins inperfections. I'm going to have to break down and buy some shorts. They'll probably be bermuda - but that'll do.

Oh - Congratulations on your success! 100 pounds...wow!

      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! 😞
