2 days off my 3 month surgeversary - 54 lbs down!

so almost 2 weeks before surgery I get a freakin cold. Ugh..runny nose..sore throat..and a ear ache..and all I can take is Tylenol..ugh shoot me now

So for the past 3 days I have worn my pedometer, I forget so much with it, but I have been the past 3 days and in 3 days and just normal everyday walking I have burned over 1700 calories, can't hate that!!!

1 more lb and I would have hit my next goal, well guess I have to wait another week??? lol, I am not going to worry over it!!!

3 month follow up with surgeon today. Down 69 lbs. Of course, his scale will add four to that. His scale is a jerk. LOL!

Lost 2 on vacation -- all that hiking, swimming and fresh fish in Belize made for a successful week.

checking my lists of what to pack... almost 2 weeks before surgery... its getting real

Went in for a small fill today and couldn't believe I lost 8 lbs in the past 4 weeks especially because I was on steroids for one of those weeks. Yay!

Lost a pound this week, was only a pound but it was my goal to get to my next 10 lb drop, so I am now at 230 which i love, and now next goal 220!!!

Just back from the Dr's office this morning. Down another 7 lbs for the month, I'll take it. Down 56 lbs since giving birth 3/7/14, and down 22 lbs since surgery 5/14/14.

So today I started my pre-op which consist of 3 shakes and a meal (lean Cuisine type) with a cup of veggies a day... I'm on my 2nd shake and I have a feeling that my meal tonight will feel like a 5 star meal...lol

only a pound away from 50 lost! coming up on 3 months out! so happy with my progress!

3 Weeks post op. I see my surgeon tomorrow regarding the pain I'm having. Hoping all is okay with me - otherwise everything else is going great!!!

Less than two weeks away from the big day! All I can say is wow.

My weight loss has stalled the last two weeks and it's only been a month since my surgery. I'm down 27 lbs so I shouldn't complain but I'm getting upset about it moving so slow.

Today is 2 months post op for me! Down 38 lbs, 24 total inches, and 3 pant sizes!! Whoohoo!

I'm waiting for an email back from my nutritionalist. I am on day 3 of my preop diet, and I think my head is going to explode....

Lost 7lbs in the past few weeks, I'd like to be excited but I'm so sick its hard to be...

wao i really tho my weight lost eventually was going to speed up.. but nothing.. losing about 1 per week.. no bueno. i was hopping for an amazing weight loss story to post.. but no.. i guess i just have to look at thr positive in it.. at least im not gaining weight

I went shopping this weekend and fit into size large tops. That is going from a size 2x to a size large in 3 months. Yippy!

I'm a little bit worried. My husband is really suffering with stomach flu. My daughter and son in law had it last week. This morning I woke up with a queasy stomach and all I want is water. My protein shake made me feel ill. If I start vomiting, do I need to call my doctor?

So, I am back in school studying for my AA in Graphic Design. I will finish up next June. I am very excited! Working Full time and taking two classes every 5 weeks would not be possible without WLS. I have regained my self confidence and can do attitude. It is so nice not to feel defeated all of the time!

Just wanted to say . . . . never give up. After 5 weeks of back and forth with UHC peer to peer and 2 denials, I have finally been approved. Got my pre cert and surgery date for gastric sleeve 8/25.

Ok so T25 was a bust. I decided we couldn't afford it and my husband decided he couldn't do it. I will say I was too sore to keep up on day 3 from doing day 1& 2. We both decided to take a step back. We are doing hip-hop abs until we get our strength up. Then we will revisit T25 or something like it. Day 1 of hip-hop abs was fun and we both had a good sweat going.

So I have been looking forward to getting into onederland but I have decided not to make my goals so far out of reach and just take it 10 at a time, and so I am really looking forward to hitting 240 which I am only 3 lbs away and then I will look forward to hitting 230? NO more big goals!!!
