when one meal leads into the next.... Like you are eating breakfast and before you are finished, it's lunch.

Great form on that squat... i'm good at going down... its the getting up the kills me... hehehehe

Holy Hell..... found this old picture from before my Lapband in 2009. Found on my friend's FB page. It said post Feb 2010.... But i'm 99.9% sure it was pre op liquid diet..... That would have made me 232# back then..... that jacket was a 3XL...(maybe a 4). I was so sad back then. I really felt at the end of my rope. I'm so happy with the way things turned out. Looked back at some of my post and damn the things i said..... i was one of the "i only lost" posters... I was also still under the delusion that i could make my marriage work. Didn't know it then, but he was cheating.... in so many ways. Since then i had the band placed Nov 2009, looking back now... i really didn't lose a whole lot that first year... like 60#. I lost another 20 the next year..... i hovered at 143-145 for years. I had a TT in March of 2012. 2015/2016 told him i wanted a divorce. Oct. 2016 meet the love of my life. March 2017, my band slipped and had an ER removal. Aug 2017 moved to Mississippi. Feb 2019 started menopause... and the weight really started coming back on.... from 143# removal day to 173.5 .... Found a Dr. that would do a Low BMI revision.... 2.5 years later. 14K OOP.... and worth every cent. Got married Sept. 26, 2019 (one month pre op). Today i weight 131.? It has taken me 10 years to lose 100#s.... Stated at a size 18-20 pants...

so i know this is not really an "OOTD".... put this on to wash the cars.....

I was going to say.... His face says EVERYTHING. He is beaming with pride....

Your name should be .......... BethWow! Good job we are SX twins. my revision to sleeve was 8/28/19

Yessssss..... Where do you live... i'm coming to raid your closet. What size shoe you wear?

If i may: Cereal is not good for you, plus it's mixed with milk and this will not keep you full. Most cereal has loads of sugar. I would replace that with a smoothie or eggs and bacon. My husband makes me a quiche .... Eggs, bacon, green onions, cheese and cream. I have one slice which is about 3-4oz. Soup is loaded with sodium and again won't keep you full. Try the protein and some kind of veggies. Dinner looks good except for the mashed potatoes.... maybe try a baked sweet potato or some other veggie. Bananas are nearly pure sugar... Try: Pineapple, cherries, blueberries, blackberries,

OMG ..... If it's the Depo Shot..... STOPPPPPPP!!!!!! Years ago they removed the IUD and started me on the Depo... I gained 50lbs in one month.... it was horrible. Look into the Nuvo Ring. It was the best Birth control EVER.... I tried it all, the Pill (nausea all the time), diaphragm (terrible bladder and yeast infections), Condoms with and without foam (latex-sensitive), IUD (terrible bleeding), the shot (major weight gain, but i didn't bleed), then the Ring. It was the only one that worked for me. Then in my 30ies i had a partial hysterectomy.... OMG it was like the heavens parted and the angels were singing.... At 50 i started menopause and it sucks Ass..... I started gaining weight and couldn't control it, no matter what i did. So i decided enough was enough and paid OOP for a revision to the sleeve. Note: All of the birth control was before i was banded in 2009 SW: 232 LW 143: Removal 2017 at 143. Sleeved 8/28/19 at 173.5, today 131.4

I'm going to need this dress.... i already have shoes similar to those... Michael Kors.... https://www.dillards.com/p/michael-michael-kors-berkley-weave-canvas-espadrille-wedge-sandals/506826987?googleShop=Y&cm_mmc=GooglePLAs-_-Category+-+All+Products+-+Smart+Shopping-_-Michael+Kors-_-EAIaIQobChMInfzwv7CB6AIVkYbACh1nKQ2vEAQYAiABEgJ7D_D_BwE&gclid=EAIaIQobChMInfzwv7CB6AIVkYbACh1nKQ2vEAQYAiABEgJ7D_D_BwE https://www.dillards.com/p/michael-michael-kors-berkley-weave-canvas-espadrille-wedge-sandals/506826987?googleShop=Y&cm_mmc=GooglePLAs-_-Category+-+All+Products+-+Smart+Shopping-_-Michael+Kors-_-EAIaIQobChMInfzwv7CB6AIVkYbACh1nKQ2vEAQYAiABEgJ7D_D_BwE&gclid=EAIaIQobChMInfzwv7CB6AIVkYbACh1nKQ2vEAQYAiABEgJ7D_D_BwE they would go perfect .... any of them... so i'm ready

it's nice to hear when people notice. But I understand. Since August i lost 42ish lbs. The people that i work with on a daily bases can tell i have lost..... But, my husband's family and some of his friends don't say a word unless he said.... Doesn't chris look great... Then they will say something. But before the wedding when he lost weight..... his family was all about .... Wow tim you lost a lot of weight. Here i was down 20lbs... and not one word.... It did hurt my feelings.... but ohhhh well.

@Xx1jpt5xx Just like a couple of others said.... get up and walk walk walk.... it's the best way to "bounce" back. SX on a Wednesday and i was back at work on Monday. I took one pain pill the day i went home. You can't let her negativity creep into you... You have to put your big boy underwear on and show her. Now i'm not saying go and run a marathon or start powerlifting... but you have to keep moving. Take a walk to the mailbox, to the end of the driveway, to the front door... do not get sedentary... Set your timer and drink your sips of water/fluid. Drink your soup broth. I love wonton soup broth... sooooo good. Sip it. Nourishment equals healing...

new orleans.

I know right.... how dare they have a good time with out us..... @JAKE H & @Sophie7713 ..... This is the outfit Tim bought weekend before last. He has great taste. He feeds my shoe addiction... hehe. On another note.... if any of you want to visit are is planing to visit NOLA.... hit me up... I know allllll the great spots, and i'm only 3 hours from there.

yes.... that's the shirt.... so i guess i have to keep it now. The skirt gathers too much in the front... But is still love it.
