June 2013 Sleevers GROUP

[mytime2shine 229]

I had surgery on June 10th so yeah I am in the 6 weeks of my body reajsuting. Thank You! I needed that. My Dr never told me that. I was telling my husband that I think my body is adjusting to my new diet and it will catch on to the idea that I am not starving myself and this is how life will be like from now on. I agree the smaller clothes is a much nicer reward that the number on a scale. I did get rid of a bunch of clothes and still had some that fit. But after this go around of clothes I am going to be naked unless I go shopping. I think I am good for a few weeks may be a month or two. My good friend started calling me Lilly' date=' as in Lilly Tomlin the incredible shrinking woman. I see that I am loosing and I feel bones I have not felt in a very long time. This morning I finally lost 3 pounds. I was shocked. I am happy to have lost and feel bad for complaining. I am so scared that this surgery will not work for me because nothing ever worked before. I eat less than 1000 calories a day. I walk when I have a chance. I finally have more energy and I am doing so much more than I did last month. I guess I am scared. I so want this to work. I am tired of loosing and regaining the weight and even more weight. Thanks again. I am so happy for your advice. You Rock![/quote']

I'm right there with ya! Surgery date June 6. Slow go the last couple of weeks. I wish my Dr had told me not to weigh-- would have saved me a lot of frustration & grief. scale started moving again yesterday. 2.3 lbs in 2 days..

Good luck. I am ready for change and I am hoping that I will continue to see the scale going lower and lower each week. I only weigh myself once a week. One of my friends on the June forum, Frank told me he does that and I liked the idea. I got less scale conscious after talking to him, but still would hope for a weekly loss. I know that we will get there. The journey is long but it is so worth it.

Hey guys I am stalling. I am smaller but the scale and I don't agree. I was a 24 but now I am in an 18. The scale has been the same for 2 weeks. I increased my Protein. I walk daily.

Congrats....keep up the good work and stay off that scale its à trap....lol....

This is going to be TMI for some people....but as a woman who has suffered from PCOS and infertility and no natural monthly cycles....I would like to report that I had a cycle start 5 days after my surgery (surgery date june 12) and then I started another cycle today....I cant believe it is finally coming from what seems to be on a normal schedule. I pray that this happens every month so when goal is reached babies can be made without intervention from a fertility specialist :-)

My fat to healthy glasses I made today. Every marble counts as a pound. It's motivating!

Love this idea! I will be copying it!

I see my Dr on Wed and I will be asking her about increasing the Protein. I am tall, too, and no one has ever mentioned it before. Thanks for the info!
