Holy cow, indeed! Cannot believe how much you shrunk x impressive, well done

Hey Junies Marci here! New to this thread! Was sleeved on the 19th of June , 2013. So far I have lost 96 lb . My surgery weight was 287 lb, my current weight is 191 lb and I'm 5'9" tall . I still haven't reached my goal of 165 lbs. I've been at the same weight for 2 months now and I find it so difficult to shift these last few pounds Don't get me wrong, I feel fantastic and if I'll stay at this current weight all my life , I'll be very very happy. I just.. Wanted to reach my goal. I would love to have a baby and I was thinking, the lighter I get, the better, so I can allow myself wiggle room if I ever get pregnant . And I really know there's plenty of time to reach goal, we're only 10 months post op but I just feel a bit discouraged. In all honesty I haven't worked out until 8 months post op, because the weight was melting off me anyhow and I was still a lazy bum however I've been working out for the last 2 months (not as much as I'd like but I did ( I have an elliptical at home, some weight training, etc) the scale just won't budge , and yes, I know, you gain muscle and you lose fat and inches but no pounds. It's just...I'm gaining and losing the same 5 pounds over and over. I'm very careful with what I eat (most of the time) and don't go over 1200 kcal a day . I know some people eat 800 kcal but that would not satisfy me anymore, especially when I'm burning 1000 kcal on the elliptical machine I use My Fitness Pal daily and log in all my food (even though I hate it with a passion), to hold myself accountable and I rarely go over 1200 Kcal. It feels like my body got cozy and comfortable at this weight and don't wanna leave hehe. But fingers crossed , something will happen. How about everyone else? How are you all doing at 10 months post op? What's your food intake? Are you all hungry almost all the time like myself? Do you work out and if you do, What's your workout like? Anybody else having difficulty losing lately? Would love to hear from you. I know there's a lot of pages in this thread, and once I get some time, I'll go through them, but they date back to surgery and I would love to see how the people are getting on now hope everyone's is great! I'll be attaching a before and after with myself as well x hope to her from you soon x Respectfully, Another June sleever <3

Little update on me everyone's looking great xx I'm nearly 10 months post op, 93 lb (42 kg) lost so far, still have 28 lb (15 kg) to lose but I'm getting there with sweat and hard work My stats : Height - 5'9" (1.76 m), SW - 287 lb (130 kg) , CW - 194 lb (88kg) TW - 165 lb (75 kg) Can't believe I'm posting a picture of me in that state. The before picture was 3 days after my surgery, when I got home

Wow, impressive, you look great and fit xx

OMG, woman!! You look like a different person. 20 years younger. I even had to show this to my husband! Amazing job, well done, you!

I so know what you mean, really. I have a few friends that every time that they see a picture of me online (I live in another country than all my family and friends) they feel the need to bring their own weight into the discussion. And all of them..are skinny arses. Like..maybe 5-10 kg overweight, due to just having a baby, or something else.. Its soooo annoying. Yes, that's exactly the same, me being obese at 130 kg almost all my life...and you carrying a bit if baby weight..yeah, just the same! I even heard comments like : awww, you're losing more weight every day and I get fatter and fatter. I feel insulted, especially when all of them are thin and always have been.And you're right, I was just the same, yes , at times I felt uncomfortable with myself but I did enjoy life no matter my size and I never brought them into my (real not like theirs) weight problem. I swear, most of them are attention seekers, waiting for you to just tell them how lovely they are. I never did that and I don't understand why they feel the need to do that

You look amazing, well done x

Thank you, lovely! X

Why thank you, chick! I shop on Ebay, and always hunt bargains for new clothes, and sometimes I get second hand clothes from other people for pennies, and its so worth it, especially because we are still shrinking, and we only use the clothes a few times, I couldn't wait until my goal to buy new clothes. As for the rock chick dress ..I couldn't believe my eyes, it was only £10 and free delivery and it fits and brand new ! Bit tight around the boobs, but hey, I can suck it up. Where are you from, lovely?

Update. Almost 7 months post op. Down 86 lbs (39 kg) . Another 35 lbs to go ! Height : 5'9" SW: 287 lbs CW : 201 lbs I loveeeed squeezing into my first leather rock chick dress (faux leather, don't worry)

Hey again, honI knoooooow, right? I was sitting on the scale and when I've seen 101.. Then 100.4 ...and OMG, when I've seen 99.9 kg, I jumped with excitement, really. I felt like..ok, things got easier now that I'm under 100 hehe. I'm sure you'll be able to keep yourself at your goal weight, when you'll get there and keep yourself into shape. While I'm looking forward to getting to goal, I'm not really looking forward to maintain my weight and my newly achieved leaner self, but hey, we gotta do it. All the best, chick.
