@sillykitty you look great! I am an A cup of skin LOL I have had 2 children breast fed, this is my second time losing 100+ lbs so my boobies have seen better days. Thank you for your input!

I am so excited I am getting my boobs done in December and my pre-op appt is soon where I get tot he pick the size! I am researching but wanted real life opinions. What did you get? What cc's? What type of implants? High, moderate or low profile? Is the drop and fluff a real thing?

I have been looking at the ultra high profile I really love how full they look! what size did you start at?

what did you start out at? did you get Gummies? or Silicone? They look great!

totally me this week! I am just having a week where I feel like puffy, slow, tired, just unmotivated to work out. I am still doing my workouts because I know its a slump but I am just there this week.

I feel it! But go get your workout in, get a skinny peppermint mocha or whatever your holiday drink of choice is, and just enjoy the day. I am having many days like this lately (its time of the month) and ya know its okay to have an off day. We deserve those mental breaks too! you got this lady

@ms.sss and @Mspretty86 when I get these boobies- my man better stay hydrated hahahahha!!!! I am self conscious with this noodle boobies. so being fit has helped with the stamina haha.

I can see that. I personally do think my morals, values and how I treat people has always been the same. I am more confident and I take less **** so yea I guess the same and different too. I have always been an extrovert and I guess my extrovert-ness(?) comes out more now that I am not worried about how others are perceiving me or tugging at my shirt or tugging in a fat roll while talking to people. So I don't think its a controversial statement just another perspective

@Mspretty86 honestly I do not know how it would've been if I met him where I am at now. But no, we can't blame men for like slim/fit women but us being where we have been we know that its a shitty feeling to not be wanted with a few extra pounds on us because we are the same people on the inside! I will say, from reading your posts and getting your vibes- you know your worth and girl do not settle just for someone to fill that void. Use this time in your life to date, have fun, get the deserved attention and find Mr. worth it! You are working your ass off to get slim and fit- you want someone to match your energy and not hold you back from your goals and dreams.

So I will definitely say that I am so oblivious LOL I stay in my own world so I really don't know, however I do have a great deterrent from men talking to me....my kids! LOL My boyfriend has actually had a hard time with my weight loss...there was a good point where he felt uncomfortable being intimate. He said that the change happened so fast that I felt and looked so different he felt like he was cheating on the old me. He also preferred me fluffy, met me at 240lbs size 16, then I blew up to 297lbs size 20 after I had our baby, and now I am 160 ish at a size 2-4, but he also understood I did this surgery for my health. I am getting my boobies done 12/30 so I k now that will be another hurdle I think, then I most likely will be getting more obvious blunt attention that both of us will have to get used to. Our relationship is strong and our communication is really good so we will be okay but its been a process lol

Soooooo healthy fats, always have been scared of peanut butter but omgsh I found this nut butter called Nuttzo and its AMAZING!!! I made PB balls with Nuttzo, pure maple syrup, unsweetened shredded coconut and rolled oats. let me tell you these things are the most amazing snack (usually post workout for me. Anyone else have any other recipes they like with nut butter they want to share? I have been eating it 2x a day. In the morning with my keto bread only tsp and half a banana, but I would like to find other stuff to do with it. Thanks!

ooo that does sound delish!

@FifiLux THAT SOUNDS DELISH! I will have to try these! yummo!

I usually have my kids (7yr and 2.5yr olds) with me so that's a great deterrent! hahahah!!! I will still get those pushy ones that try to talk to me with my kids but thankfully my kids are rambunctious so its an easy out LOL

@mspretty86 I eat a variation of this every day its sooooo good!!! Ill pico de gallo to it. *chefs kiss*

Do you guys laugh at us? LOL I swear I think the entire world just laughs at the U.S

I rarely use it, I have tried it in receipes but honestly I just blend it up and add it to my breakfast bowls. Egg whites, 1/4C of blended cottage cheese, veggies, cheese and turkey sausage. DELISH!

I drink them often! I found a Mocha flavored protein powder from PeScience and with 1/2C of unsweetened almond milk, hot water and my collagen. I top with FF whipped cream and cinnamon and bam! I got me a mocha with 30g of protein! I eat Ice Cream every night- I make protein ice cream in my ninja and eat half a pint EVERY. SINGLE. NIGHT! I make it with protein powder. In the summer I made an iced profee everyday too. For me it works for me, they are delicious, decent amount of protein and I feel like its a sweet treat!

I agree with @Lilia_90 working out in the morning is the way to go! No excuses if your up at 430 putting in work! its when I do mine too and then I run on my lunch break at work. I know myself I wont do it if its after work lol Even on the weekend I am up at 6 before the fam gets up! I go to Planet Fitness $30 a month it has what I need, and I am able to get a solid workout. 45min weights and 30min cardio. That is awesome! get it girl, keep it up!!

oh yay! lemme know how you like them! Airfyer I would just try doing it at 350 just bake for a longer like 8min then go from there. Its not super crunchy unless you like it like that then bake for longer.

Love the roses! i feel AMAZING!! my only regret is not doing this sooner.

oooo yes!!! For the cinnamon sugar bowls, I mist avocado spray on both sides and sprinkle a mix of swerve brown sugar, cinnamon and regular granulated swerve then I toast it up on the pan and then what you do is your put it in a oven safe bowl (I use glass ramekins) and then cook for like 5ish min and they make a bowl you can add ice cream or a good one is heating up apples cinnamon and swerve like an apple pie and putting it in the bowl with a little sugar free cool whip. I use a pizza cutter and make little tortilla chips, mist with avocado oil and a little bit of salt. Put in an air fyer and crisp them up, you can do this with the sweet mix from above and have little sweet chips. you can do smash burgers with them too! those little guys are awesome!

I am a baby in my journey 10months today actually, but I reached my goal weight at 6months and I creeped down a touch more for about another month. I have maintained +/- 3lbs for the past 3ish months. I track every single day (eating 1700-2000cal a day), I prioritize protein (hit 150-200g a day) although lately its more like 225g of protein and that is WAY too much my stomach hurts lol so I am adjusting, keeping fat low (under 90) keeping carbs under 200g. I lift heavy (3 days lower and 2 days) along with cardio (running, incline walks, stair master), then 1 day where I do 40min HIIT work out then 30min of cardio. I have 1 rest day. I meal prep every week so all my meals M-F from pre-workout snack down to my last snack before dinner is prepped and tracked. I know what's for dinner every day as I make sure to plan for those. All the food I make is now lower in fat, higher in protein and the family doesn't even notice! Weekends I "indulge" I still track but notice I do not eat as much those days. I eat protein ice cream using my Ninja Creami or sneak in a few bites of my hubby's Ben and Jerrys. I do eat chips, fries, lettuce wrapped burgers, fried chicken **gasp!!** very small amounts but I do not deprive myself. This is a LIFESTYLE change not a diet. So I wanna go buck wild and get back to where I was but I also don't want to be a bird and never enjoy all the yummy treats. MODERATION IS KEY!! Eat healthy 85-90% and stay active, you won't have any issues!

so beautiful!!

oooo yesss!!!! lemme know how it goes!
