How stupid is this..I literally just teared up seeing your fantastic change. I am only 6 days out but have not been thin since high school' date=' 18 years ago, so to think in a few months I will be posting pictures hopefully a beautiful as these...I cry. We are beautiful women dammit and soon enough we will be thin and beautiful![/quote']

Aww thats not stupid at all!! You will be there before you know it. How are you feeling? The irat few weeks are so hard!!!! I did survive my first holiday and i did good!

Wow... you looked great beforehand. I'm 300lbs and its kind of strange to see someone with a before picture that's 70lbs lighter than me. Did insurance pay for you? You just look healthy beforehand... It's startling is all. And congratulations on your progress. You look wonderful.

I'm really irritable. I just want to eat that piece of cheese, I want test the noodles that I'm boiling to check for doneness. It's these things that are getting to me. Yesterday was hard, especially since for whatever reason the deadbeats that make up my husbands extended family decided they were not going to help gramma in the kitchen, leaving me to carve the turkey and slice the ham. I'm finally seeing a change in the scale, but am sad about the cost right now. I know its temporary, its just frustrating. Other than that, physically I feel great. Not gtg 64ozs but am close to 40ozs and gtg 60gms of Protein in.

Very excited, thank you. I can't wait to get back in the gym. I used to be so active before I let myself go. Obviously, it's a lot harder when you're heavy. Either way, I'm ready!

Hi! Yes, insurance paid for me. I was 100ls overweight. I'm 5ft 2in.... I was pretty healthy as to the more serious co-morbidities, but was depressed, anxiety issues, high cholesterol.. No worries, you'll get there as well :-)

Ah, okay. Sorry to ask you to basically justify the surgery - I didn't mean to do that at all. None of us should have to do that. We know what we struggle with and how much harder every day is. You just look amazing and I am so happy for you

That is amazing! Look forward to being 150 in 5 months!!! Im so excited for you! My only advice is be patient with urself, follow the diet, drink lota of Water, really take advantage of those forst weeks where u cant eat to lose most weight... Bc when u start to hit 4 months, u are almost on ur own... U need to make healthier decisions...

The first couple of weeks are tough. But they will go by very fast!!

Hi girl!! Dont be discouraged. Everyone loses differently. Our bodies are diff. What was ur starting wt? If you had the augery and are aticking to the plan, it is working! Youre losing slower but will continue to lose when mine will stop
