Hang in there! I am almost 2 years post op and still losing! It is definitely slower now but I am still losing. My goal weight was 160 and I am now 159 and still losing. Remember when the scale...
I would caution you on the wine drinking. I read something yesterday that said some of us start drinking more as a substitute to our food cravings. In essence we are only switching our addiction...
It sounds scary but you should be able to do this. With that said if you don't make it it isn't the end of the world. Your goal will be achieved I am sure your NUT is thinking about the 6 month...
I am 5 '6" I wanted to make an attainable goal so I went with 160 but definitely want to lose another 10 pounds. I know I can do it but it is slow at this point but I don't care. I only care that...
Today was that magically day when I stepped on that scale with sleepy eyes only to see that all important number!! I reached goal!! It took 19 months to do it but I am here!! This has been the...
Your goal is exactly like mine. I wanted to hit 150 just so I can stay within the same range and feel safe with that number. I will keep going until I hit that number and someday hopefully I can...
I totally understand what you are saying with the exception of your husband. I am sure he is very proud of you and if he loved and accepted the fluffy you he will still love the new you. I do...
Okay, I am 19 months post op. I am one pound away from goal but I have an ultimate goal of 10 pounds lighter. When people have plastic surgery to remove the extra skin it is usually 12 pounds or...
I add my premiere protein shake to my coffee twice a day with some sf caramel machiatto and it is fantastic!! That adds 30 mg of protein to my diet every day.
Congratulations to you and your new life! I was a self pay and it took me several years to make the decision to have the surgery because I knew it would be life altering and I absolutely had to be...
It is a wonderful horrible expensive situation that I am still going through as well. I can't even admit to myself how much I have spent with the sizes going down! I am now 6 pounds from my goal...
A little late but happy birthday to you as well!! I wish you great success with your new life!! :)
It wasn't sweets so much unless they were really rich like a good carrot cake, bread pudding etc. My main trouble was salty stuff, appetizers and carby side dishes. Now its meat, veggies and a...
It truly is an addiction and after your surgery don't be surprised if you are not a happy camper for a couple of weeks! I gave bitch a whole new meaning! But once I broke the addiction life got a...
Happy Birthday to you tomorrow!!! Best of wishes with your surgery..........You will do great! That is my birthday wish for you!! :)
Well yes today is my birthday and I am now officially 54 years old. I started this journey June 7, 2013 at 293 pounds and I now weigh 166 pounds. I have gone from a 22/24 to a 10 or a 3X to a...
You will do fabulously!! I am 53 and wish I had it done 10 years earlier!! I had to lose 139 pounds to reach my goal so I am almost there I have 19 pounds to go but you will reach it much faster...
That doesn't sound crazy at all!! I had my surgery June 2013 and this summer has been amazing!!! I just weighed myself and have now officially lost 114 pounds and went from a 22/24 to a 12 and a...
I know exactly how you feel! I don't begrudge those who do or do not want to polish themselves up. When I have reached my goal weight I too want to fix a few things. I think leaving a reminder is...
Personally for myself I am going to do it when the time it right for me. If you can afford it..........do it! You look terrific but I know how you feel and I think you will love the new look! :)
Dr. Shillingford was my surgeon almost 1 year ago and did an amazing job! I haven't had 1 bad day yet!! Best of luck to you!!
It definitely get easier! At first it is extremely rough and I had many many melt downs! I picked fights etc. and then I realized it was all from the loss of my best friend..........food! I would...
I am just about 1 year out and have lost over 100 pounds. At one time I was 175 pounds and felt awful about myself and continued to gain weight until I at one time was over 300 pounds. At surgery...
