Yes I too was a CPAP user - severe Sleep apnea. Finally after 10 years of use - no more. I lost 60 lbs at the time and the doctor ran another test and said I did not need the CPAP as my apnea was gone. I have lost 30 lbs more since and feel great.

I love this. She is too cute!

I think the larger you are clothing is made to be more stretchy and loose. So it takes more pounds to lose a size. Once you are in say 16 and under it takes less pounds and then when you get to single digits even less to drop a size. At least that is what seems to be happening with me.

Not cheesy at all - you look wonderful!

Awesome!

Only thing I would change would to have learned in my youth that exercise and good diet choices would have prevented this.

Beef Jerky, soy nuts, almonds

Sweat is just fat crying.

Just remember not to allow yourself to fall into the light and more reps falicy. Just think about it this way, what good are 5 lb weights doing when you lift that just by lifting a bag of sugar. You should challenge yourself always. If you have a child that you still lift daily or you grocery shop (think of the weight of those bags), why limit yourself to 5 lb weights when for your daily life you need to strengthen those muscles just to do daily things.

That is awesome! Every little change adds up to BIG results

Mashed Califlower instead of potatos, my family can't tell the difference. Also love spaghetti squash instead of pasta.

Yep happens to me everytime - doc always has the smelling salts ready - Vasovagal reaction

I was able to stop using my machine recently. I was having trouble sleeping so I went and had another sleep study and sure enough no more apnea! I love not having to sleep with a machine, however I still snore slightly.

I was a pro at losing weight pre-band - just could not keep it off. So the band helps me keep it off. I have never regretted it.
