Thank you all so much!! Starting weight 327.8 Surgery weight 315 Current weight 210.8 I'm 5'8 My arms were never too big. I workout with five pound weights and found great exercises on YouTube. Also I walked pretty much this whole year at least 30 min daily. I also have a stationary bike. My hubby just bought me an elliptical that I'm learning to love. I don't have a specific routine just try to move daily. -

preop..liquid diet question for those of you who have already been there :)
southerndiva123 replied to merade123's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
I was on a 7 day liquid diet that after 4 days I was allowed a small meal at dinner. I had a handful of popcorn and that was it!! Lost 12 pounds in that week. Let him know you are struggling. Best of luck. -

92 Pounds Gone!

The sleeve is the main reason. I definitely exercise but it's mainly walking. I do arm exercises with weights and control my eating. My sleeve is very small. -
92 Pounds Gone!
southerndiva123 replied to southerndiva123's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Thank you guys!! I am 5'8 and my starting weight was 327.8. I have had 4 c sections so I am not pleased with my belly but I didn't carry the majority ofweight there. I was all hips and booty lol. My arms are a little jiggly but nothing I can't live with. I am about 50 pounds from goal so I have already contacted a trainer to help me with some toning in addition to what I am doing. Hope that helps -
I submitted my pic to Plus Size Magazine (still plus sized and I have lost 85 pounds) and they put it up [ATTACH]8898[/ATTACH] on their Facebook and Twitter pages. Made my day
