[laurielee83 38]

I wanted to update:

Surgery date: 11/7

Surgery day: 230 lbs

This morning:141.2 lbs

I am 5"6' and my initial goal first was 150' date=' then it became 145 because it was the best for me. I had a Tummy Tuck when i was 143 lbs 3 weeks ago and i gained up to 7 pounds Water weight. Now am back down to 141 3 weeks after the surgery and my goal changed to 135... I think i am addicted to seeing the scale move am still not ready to transition to maintenance. My question is: is 135lbs a far fetch and too much for me? [/quote']

Go for it and see how you feel you could always put 5lbs back on if you feel too skinny(I know imagine that) I am 5'2 and my goal is 130 I am 153 now sleeved the same day as you . I look at my body and sometimes think hmmm maybe 125???I will just have to see how it goes....

Sleeved 11/16

HW: 246lbs

Sw: 225lbs

Current wt: 146lbs

100lbs lost from highest, 79lbs since surgery. I want to lose another 20lbs. I was at 152lbs for 6 wks then did the sleeve test diet for 5 days. My Iron levels are low. Anybody else with Iron deficiency? (blood levels are fine for me)

I have iron deficiency they are making me do a bunch of tests to rule out anything related to the surgery...I think it is related to my menstrual cycle along with decreased nutritional intake....

Surgery weight was 296 and today I'm 210. Down 86 pounds! I was hoping to be at goal by my 30th birthday in September but I don't think I'll lose 50 pounds in 3 months! So my new gaol is to be 180-185. Hell, I'll be happy with just being under 200!

Congratulations to everyone for you incredible success!

Congrats on your progress! How amazing! I was wondering how your recovery was from the tuck? Also, what does your diet look like now?

[MPrado 19]

Feeling a little down today... I am on another two week stall. I know it will pass, and I have things to work on (protein/water intake). Can anyone give me a sample diet of their intake now? I am bored of the same foods and Protein Shakes. I like to experiment with foods, just running low on ideas.

Hi everyone! Congrats on all the weight losses!

Sleeved: 11/28

Wt date of surgery: 228

Wt now: 158

13 lbs to go to my goal weight!

For those of you that had the surgery to remove the extra skin from the stomach area...did the insurance cover this or did you have to pay out of pocket?

Can't seem to get back on track... Feel no energy at all. Anybody having problems?

Are the energy pills working.. I'm thinking of getting B12 shots

[soocalchic 1,087]

Yeah they work.. B12 works also I'm going to give myself some injections as well to see if I can get out of this no energy rut I'm in
