Im shooting for 120 but will be thrilled for anything lower than 150. I am only 5'2". The weird part is ny shirts are a large or even a medium but my pants are 16. I have a big stomach still. Id love to be a 10 on the bottom...

Haha I'm the exact same size. I actually just bought my first pair of 14 yesterday. They're a little tight but I can still button them. But I'm a large on top. I'm 5'6" and would love to be in the single digits. I might even shoot for 135.

Hey all you juners. i have a question. how are you dealing with your body image? I am in no way shape or form vain. but i have good days and bad days. what i mean is i may fit into some new cloths or have another little victory and ride the crest of that high for a few days.then fat bash crash my ego and im the fat guy all over again. I know im good on the nutrition and exercise. but it seems my curremt dilema is getting past the fat guy image that has been with me for so long. i know ican conquer this and i fully expected this to happen just looking for any tips or thoughts on this matter. Thanks RJ

I'm dealing with my body image I guess okay, when I look in the mirror, I don't really see the "fat girl" anymore, instead, I imagine seeing a healthy 43year old woman. Therefore, instead of seeing yourself as Fat, see yourself as healthy, it works trust me.

Ugh!!!!! So frustrating!! I was 180 yesterday morning, tonight I'm back up to 182.6. I know I should be weighing myself at the same time everyday and I do but it's taken me like a month to get out of the 180s and I was so close. =(

I was told not to weigh every day because of fluctuations from things like bloating

My fiancé finally took my scale away! Haha I was weighing every day and getting frustrated because I have been in a really long "stall", but somehow lost 2 pants sizes without losing any pounds! He told me I need to start focusing on my NSVs and side by side pics instead of numbers or I'm just going to keep getting bummed out as I build muscle.... I think he's right... lol hard words to say!

So I out this together tonight and it helped!

Here's to a new slimmer, healthy you!

Honestly, we just have to keep remembering where we were before surgery. I get caught up sometimes thinking I am not losing as quickly as others, and I start getting bummed, but I took some time to go through some old pictures last night. It was quite scary! I knew I was fat, but I didn't think I looked that big! It brought me to a new level!

Today's goal is to get myself out to walk. I really would love to do a 5k eventually. But that won't happen if I don't get moving. Wish me luck!
