Recommended Posts

Now that we are in or around our 8 month of banding I felt the need to come back to this thread. SO

I'll be glad when I can...

*Celebrate 100lbs lost

*hit 260 so I can go make-up shopping (my reward)

*lose 10 more pounds so I can fit a skirt i just bought

*feel comfy on my next plane ride to NYC

*see the look on my in-laws faces when they see the change LOL

hopefully by then (Sept) i will be closer to 200 than 300. the last time they saw me i was in the 290's.

now that we have lost a few pounds im sure our lists have changed a little. so from my previous list i CAN:

*walk longer than 30 mins without my legs hurting

*just go shopping for smaller clothes period

*run around with my 4 y/o for longer than 5 mins

I will be glad when...

1) I am in ONDERLAND.

2) I can wear sleeveless tops.

3) I can be comfortable wearing a bathing suit in public.

4) I can complete a 5K walk/run.

5) I can wear clothing that doesnt have to be bought in a plus size store.

6) I can ride ANY ride at Kings Island or Cedar Point.

7) I can cross my legs while sitting at a table.

8) I don't have to stand so I don't have to risk breaking a chair.

9) I control my food instead of vice versa.

10) I can look in a mirror and like what I see.

      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!!

      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?
