You look amazing!

Weighed in at 197.5

Next week I will be 6months post op. I have so far lost 76pounds- yayyyyy me!!! BUT lately I find myself picking up my old habits (junk food, cookies and etc). I'm terrified of gaining the weight back but I can't stop wanting these damn sweets. What do I do? Also, what's my calorie intake suppose to be 800 or 1000 calories a day? I could really use some encouragement and ideas of what to eat. Please feel free to add me on fitness pal: aslimme85

Thank you so much for your inspiring words. I just finishing reading the thread on binge eating and definitely helped. I have to keep reminding myself that the sleeve is a tool and my actions are what will make it work.

Yes you will. I stopped at about 1 month out. I couldn't take it anymore lol. I was sleeved July 17, 2012 and have lost a total of 65 pounds so far. Eat healthy- eat protein first and exercise. You will be just fine :-)

I'm at 213... 3lbs and I'll reach my goal!

My surgeon recommended a stool softener. Colace works well!

Weighed in this morning at 213.5!!! 3.5 lbs to goal weight!

Weighed in this afternoon at exaxtly 220.

So here I am almost 3 months out of surgery and feeling disguisting. I used to be a full B cup and now I'm an A. My butt used to be one of my best features and now its completely flat. Yes I know its all the fat of my body now gone, but why couldn't it be my stomach that I lose first. I feel so unattractive and sad. Anyone else hating their appearance?

Thanks ladies! I am def going to go see a counselor. As I will also start doing exercises to lift my butt. And I decided next year I will get a boob job. I feel great looking in the mirror with clothes on its when I take the clothes off that I see all the flab :-(

As of this morning down to 221.5 11.5 pounds to go!!!!!

Today weighing in at 223.5
