Wow!! You look amazing and I'm sure you feel it too!!! Congrats to you! Your video made me kick myself again for not keeping up with good progress pics as I go through this journey. I'm 5 1/2 months post-op and have lost 130 lbs....have about 60 left to get to goal weight. I've only really took weekly pics for the first few weeks :-( Congrats again!!

Winston Salem...Baptist Med Ctr....one of the best in NC!!!!! PRAY FOR MY MAN!! text me if u wanna -
Made these double chocolate fudge cupcakes with cream cheese icing and sprinkles for my best friends bday dinner tomorrow night without so much as licking anything off my fingers!!!! I need a taste tester before everyone eats them...what if they aren't good??? Never had this prob before because I would have been the taste tester!!! Oddly enough I didn't even want to years them.....they didn't even smell good to me - thank goodness!!!
-
Taste not years...my auto correct has ADHD...won't slow down long enough to make anything make sense!
-
Exactly what my husband says!!
-
Awesome!!! Its a great feeling!!!

Most recently ive been using body fortress...you can get it at walmart....mixed with 8 oz milk. Sometimes I use premier protein already mixed up...30 grams.
-
Even though I am now down 109 lbs I still don't see it myself (unless looking at side by side pics).....everyone around me notices but its harder for me. Well yesterday I was in the waiting area while my husbands truck was getting cleaned...I looked down and wondered who the hell was sitting on my lap....these legs can't belong to me, can they?!?!?
-
It was...they looked so "normal" to me and I'm still overweight...just way less than before.

Make that NC not ND

Salisbury, ND

Kinda like dry roasted peanuts...its good! Very crunchy. It feels me up extremely quickly....its not often that I can actually eat the whole 1/4 cup. My husband loves them too and he had never tasted either until after I had surgery.
-
Like it or not I most days start with a Protein shake so I immediately get 34 grams in....and mostly meats, cheeses, yogurt with Protein powder added through the day. Dry roasted edamane is a good snack too....14 grams of protein in 1/4 cup serving.
-
I think its hardest to start....I used to hate even thinking about exercising. Now I feel really off and guilty if I don't get it in....I try for 5 hrs/week....it Will get easier if you get it started. However if I am spending the day doing house cleaning/yard work...I Will count that as my exercise for the day if it takes away the time I would have used on treadmill etc.
