8 amazing months!

[newstart! 36]

I was 8 months post OP on the 17th. I hit onderland, and the photo i attached is exactly one year apart. My husband puts his truck in a truck show every year. The weight loss really didn't stand out to me until i compared these side by side. Amazing! Worth every moment!

Are you losing on a steady basis? I am 5 mos out, nervous i will stop losing at 6 mos since first 6 is so "critical". How many calories do you intake daily. Great job!

5 months - 50 lbs down???

you are doing great

never compare yourself to others weight - don't you dare!!!!

you will not stop losing at 6 months - or even slow down

just keep up the good job with your Protein first, watching your carbs - small portions, chewing and eating very slowly

continue to drink your Water, not drink when you are not supposed to

do everything your wise mind tells you to do!!!!

keep up the good job/work

congrats on your weight loss

take care

I have stalled along the way. I felt defeated at 5 months...stalled forever! Just remember this is a lifestyle change, and a commitment. You will get there! I don't really track calories, if i need to snack its nuts or beef Jerky. For 8 months out i feel i should be at the 100lb mark post OP, but I'm not and that's ok, but i will be soon (hopefully). My surgeons office told me you will continue to lose for your 1st year, hope this helps!....does anyone else get "hangry" grumpy when hungry as well?
