Recommended Posts

Nope, not 40 years old . . . -40 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had been at -39.5 for a WEEK and it was driving me crazy. Today, I finally went to -40. And I am over the moon!

Height: 5'7", High: 263, Surgery: 247, Current: 223, Goal: 150

Right now, I just finished a 5 mile walk and I'm sitting here in a pair of size 16 capris and a size 14 shirt and I am just stoked. :):thumbup::glare::thumbup:

I weighed 242 when I had my surgery and weighed 197 today.

Size L blouse and size 16 pants. 1/2 a shoe size less. Isn't this great?

Congratulations! I hit it last week too and the last few pounds had just taken forever to fall away (as if it was as easy as "falling away", lol).... it sure feels good, doesn't it?

My next big goal is Onederland which I'm hoping to make by my birthday in mid-September.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
