December 2010 Bandsters out there?
chloes_countdown replied to GardenGal's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm still here!!!! just trying to whittle down those last few pounds like everyone else. On Monday I weighed in at 151.4lbs. Its so surreal that I'm on the cusp of the 140s. Like a lot of other comments out there....it seems like its taken forever for the last few pounds to come off but at the same time it feels like just yesterday that I was going into surgery. my brain is definitely having a hard time catching up to my body. I'm still working out a lot, tracking everything I eat & start every meal with protein. Saturday I went out for a long bike ride & ended up going 70 miles. it felt SO great!!!! I feel strong & fit - totally new experience for me. Joan - so sorry about the band slip!!!! please keep us posted on your next surgery. sending happy thoughts your way.... cheers, chloe -
so impressive!!! great job

vickyd- girl! you look so fabulous!!!!! what amazing pics. great to hear what all the other December Divas (that includes you, Dave) are up to. As for me, I think I'm coming to the end of my journey....although its gotten *very* slow here at the end. Right now, I at 162lbs (5'8") and have been in the 160s for 2months. I'm somewhere between a size 10 & 8 and medium tops. My original goal was 145lbs but I'm not sure thats the right endpoint for me. I've decided to shoot for 153-155lbs. I should be a solid size 8 at that point & then I can decide what the right next step is. Another 10lbs or plastics? I know why its slow....too many carbs & sweets have crept back into my daily diet. Also, my work travel has jumped up a lot in the last 3 months and I struggle on the road. I'm better when I'm home & on a routine. On the positive side, I don't expect to travel for the next 4-6 weeks which means I can plan my meals, cook at home & hit the gym often. Also, I started doing a lot of cycling & really love it so I signed up for my first big race. Its in 2 weeks and its 67-miles. eek! Going out for a training ride tonight.... cheers, chloe -
