17 more lbs.....



Recommended Posts

I've got 17 lbs to a healthy weight and I need to get my act together!!! I've lost 55lbs so far. 17 to healthy, 27 to goal

Here's what I've been doing -

  • Spinning 3x a week
  • Walking 2-4 miles every day
  • Sticking to high Protein, veggies, fruits

Here's what's TOUGH

  • Cravingsssss - especially for sugar, or salty!!!

These last few pounds are tough but I can do it!!! Anyone else in the same position?

Yeah, I was there September of last year and I've pretty much stalled at 25 lbs from my personal goal weight. I've just been maintaining for the last year and I'm OK with that. Looking forward to after the Holidays to take another shot at >160.

Unfortuantly yes, I m

down from 225 to 162 with a goal of 140. Ive been stuck in

the 160s for a loooong time, I finally got to 158 2 weeks ago, then ate poorly and I m stuck at 162 , again! this last 20 lbs is not easy as my body is fighting the weight loss end, all normal per my Dr.

That is me, exactly!!!

I started doing a lot of toning .. Mat work and pilates .. And my shape is changing so drastically (smaller), that I'm not so dead-art on reaching the 140 anymore. It would be nice, I think, but I'm looking really healthy at 160 and getting firmer every day.

Wow! It's so great to know there are other people with very similar starting and current weights!

My body finally started shedding lbs this week and I'm down to 161! It's funny that it coincides with a taking a break from super intense cardio.

11lbs to healthy weight - I'm sure it will be tough but feels more feasible than ever.

Thanks for the tips on toning - such a great idea!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
