That is SO AWESOME!!!!

I have tears!!

I cannot tell you how much I needed to see your post. I still have a few months to be banded and am very frustrated with life, money and weightloss--and lack there of on all accounts. lol

Your one post will help more than you know to inspire me to keep moving forward.

I am so PROUD OF YOU! Good job!!

Congratulations!!! It just goes to show that slow and steady can win the race. There is no reason why we can't all meet our goals if we are willing to put the work in.

You look fabulous!!!!

Thanks everyone!!! I have been here myself so many times wanting to give up. I have had so many plateaus, one lasting 12 mths.

I remember in the beginning with no restriction and the fills trying to get it. It took 10 fills for me to reach it and I havent had a fill since, that was about 3 yrs ago.

Its not all easy and at times it can be really hard and you just want to give up.....but dont!!!!

The band will work if you work with it, if you fall off the wagon, get back up brush yourself off and get back on.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
