I'm 5'4", started at 320 lbs and now at 185 lbs (goal weight is 135 lbs). I have not been this weight since I was 17 yrs old (now 43). I can't even tell you how many inches I've lost right now (my charts are at home and I'm at work), but I started with a 54" waist and now I have a 36" waist........

Body type never interested me. Brain type did and does.

You can view my food diary at my fitness pal. This will show you what I eat. 6 weeks out and I eat around 800 calories a day. I try to hit my Protein goal of 71 grams.

2boysmom reacted to Piplula in My 1 year surgery anniversary is today!
So hello VST peeps! Today is the day! I can honestly say the sleeve gave me my life back. It's been a heck of a journey. I am not at my ultimate goal of 200# down, but so far I have lost 145#...so just a few more steps and I will get there. I also encourage everyone to take measurements from beginning to end because I am happy to report I have lost a total of 48.5 inches from all over my body...wild huh? I wanted to share a pictorial journey with you . So here we go!
Me 12 hours before surgery
Me 6 months post op
Me at 9 months out
And me today right before my workout
So that's my story ..it's still a work in progress but with hard work, dedication, and diligence, it's becoming, finally, a reality!

2boysmom reacted to PatriotsFan28 in Hiii everybody.. *New here*
Found this site on accident and I'm so happy I did! I'm currently waiting to hear about surgery. I meet with my surgeon on Thursday! Can't wait!! Then I have to wait 48 hours for a surgery date.. Hoping my insurance approves. Fingers crossed.

2boysmom got a reaction from Fiddleman in what is your favorite snack post op
I heard about Questbars from someone... I purchased the chocolate chip cookie dough one from GNC today. It is the PERFECT snack! It does not taste like a Protein bar! The whole bar has 21g protein, 17g Fiber, and 1g sugar....chunks of chocolate...Yummy!

Before:
After:
My Debbie, RNY, Nov. 2011. Went from Size 22 to size 4. Went from 235 to 125.
Look at that face...beaming with pride...posin' n' stylin'...diggin' that camera!
My friends this is such a difference for her. No more feeling bad about herself. She's got energy coming out her ears.
This is the gal I married in 1973. Her old sassy snap is back and I'm loving it!

2boysmom reacted to KristieAtkinson in Am i going to lose more?
Just like Grammy says, it will pass. I should know, I'm the Queen of Stalls. You can see my multiple frantic posts about stalls. Lol! I spend more time stalled than losing but it all adds up.
Posting my before/current & my new phone screen saver, I keep chanting this mantra to myself!
(been floating between 195 & 205 since JANUARY!)

2boysmom reacted to No game in Back to work on Monday To tell or not?
I never made a decision as to tell or not to tell.
I "fly by the seat of my pants" and just say what I feel like saying at that particular moment to that particular person...

2boysmom reacted to JerseyGirl68 in Questioning my restriction
Leading up to now, you were more swollen and healing from surgery. I could feel everything a little more the first few weeks, but as I healed I felt more and more normal. You're doing the right thing.. Measure your foods to monitor your intake. You want to get in 3-4oz, and not feel uncomfortable. Dont' push yourself to feel "full". Your new relationship with food and feeling satisfied with less will only aid you going forward.
You may feel more restriction as you move on to more dense Proteins.
Good luck, sounds like you are doing very well!

2boysmom reacted to Shawn Morrison in Easter Candy!
Oh man yea get off that for sure. I don't even look at my sons candy. For me thinking about the wasted money of a major surgery and the fact that part of my body is now missing keeps me away from candy fat and carbs.
