I am about 2.5 years out. 8 to 10 oz per meal is my magic number. I can probably eat 15ish, but I am stuffed. I went back to measuring my meals again at the first of the year and it has made a...

I was definitely a comfort/stress eater and didn't realize that until AFTER being sleeved. I remember the first "bad" day I had at work post-op and I had this huge urge to go through the drive thru...

I hit one year out this week. I lost at least 116 lbs over the past year which is just eye popping when I really think about it. Especially when I put on my old clothes. Crazy! I've gone from a...

For what it is worth, I've never had problems with liquids. Even a month or 2 post op I could down a 16.9 oz bottle of water on my 15 minute drive home from work. Now I could probably do it in a...

I am starting to believe in the HIIT method. I am in a huge plateau right now weight wise. I basically haven't lost any weight in a couple months. It's like my body knew that getting sub 300 was a...

I switch up what exercises I do, but I have been following this workout schedule ...

Monday - Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, 30 minutes cardio

Tuesday - Core, 30 minutes high intensity interval...

Update ... I ended up purchasing an Under Armor shirt and it definitely is the most generous fitting in the mid section.

So I just had my 7 month surgiversary. I only lost 3 lbs this month, but I dropped at least 1 pant size. I have previously dropped 20 to 30 lbs without dropping a pant size. I can wear shirts that...

Check my sig. I have it broke down by month.

We were sleeved about the same time. Since December I have been having maybe 1 of those small 7.5 oz cans a month. Its a special treat when i am having one of those cravings. It more than...

Is there a brand of moisture-wicking t-shirt that seem to fit more like a cotton tshirt? Particularly in the mid secction area. I find this material to be very clingy. Even pre workout. Then add...

Maybe TMI ... but I saw 'it" the other day in the shower. I was ecstatic.

So how are we doing?

I am down 98 lbs from the beginning of the pre-op diet/highest known weight. And 75 lbs since surgery. I was wearing a tight size 54 pants and am down to a comfortable 44. ...

I am almost 6 months out and I still generally measure out my food. I typically shout to eat about 8 to 9 oz each meal. That amount makes me comfortably full. I think I could probably go up to 12...

I haven't noticed the amount of sweat decrease so much as when I work out (I would like to think I really bust my butt at the gym), but I have noticed I have decreased the amount I sweat if not all...

Doing great man!!!

I have a question for you when you started doing weight training. I have just been doing cardio 4 to 5 times a week. I am about to start adding some weight training. When you...

Did you happen to take pics without a shirt on at the beginning?

In my mind I am struggling with the same thing as you. I took a pic with no shirt on pre liquid diet. Then again at about 3...

I have it. It is not unbearable, but if I don't take my pill in the morning I can definitely feel it. Even when I eat things you wouldn't expect to trigger it. The surgeon's office said stay on...

I am having a bit of a hard time with a stall as well. I had a stall that lasted from about Thanksgiving to about a couple weeks ago and then all of a sudden I lost 6.5 lbs in one week. I thought...

Dry Roasted Edamame Lightly Salted

I also recently bought some frozen edamame and roasted them with a little bit a BBQ seasoning. They are fantastic.

One possible answer to the initial weight gain from lifting is your body will retain water to repair muscle damage (good) from lifting weights.

I was in a stall since Thanksgiving. It finally broke last week and I dropped 6.5 lbs. Then this week ..... .2 pounds. That is point 2. And I busted my butt at the gym this week. It is truly a...

I broke my first major stall last week. I hadn't really lost much since Thanksgiving and then last week I dropped 6.5 lbs.

I am not expecting to drop another 6.5 this week, but after you had...

Thanks for posting this. I went to Whole Foods last night to look for these. I had a hard time finding them .... because they only had two bags left. I opened one bag to make sure I liked them. I...

As long as you were doing what you are supposed to be it will happen.

I can relate big time right now. I have not lost much since Thanksgiving. Then I put on 2 pounds over Christmas. Then...
