Today, 3 days short of being two months out from Surgery (4/2), I am officially lighter than I have been in 25 years, and I'm very, very happy...

This has been an extraordinary journey so far. Sometimes far more difficult, sometimes far easier than I had ever imagined. So far, very, very worthy of the trip.

Tuesday of this week, I treated myself to a new set of shirts, and a couple of pairs of pants, each of which were two sizes smaller than I've worn forever...

Have a great day everyone.

Wayne

Anyone eating watermelon? I'm obsessed with it right now. I'm eating it and almost nothing else. I know I'm supposed to do my Protein first.. I'm going to do better!

I am loving watermelon right now. It satisfies my need to drink while I am eating

Hi. Well not sure what is happening now. I am 7 weeks post op. I am still trying to read my full and hunger signs. The last few days every time I eat I get the heaves. I am also at a weight stand still. I haven't lost anything in almost a week. I am at about 35 lbs. Has this happened to anyone? What did you do?

I have lost around 43, but then I fluctuate and will go up 3 lbs the next day. Of course I'm still weighing everyday. I am also having a hard time understanding my hunger bc I will get hunger pains right after I eat.

Congrats to EVERYONE!!!! We are all doing so well:)

I officially hit my 40lb loss mark and currently weigh 224.2!! When I started I was 264!!! My surgery was 4/23...downside is that none of my clothes fit and I feel like I am stalling...my weight has been fluctuating by 3-4 lbs for about a week now when I was losing 1-2lbs per day:/

My pouch is the weirdest thing to get used to...everything my NUT told me that I would do well with I yack up and things like nuts, straws, grains and cheeses (even melted) go down NO PROBLEM. I can't seem to eat much chicken at all, no matter how it's cooked:/ 1 or 2 bites and I am uncomfortably full:/ but on the other hand, my mom slow cooked a brisket on Memorial Day and I ate about half a slice (probably 1-2oz) with A1 and a tbs of light mashed potato salad. The brisket practically melted in my mouth though. Also, I find it much easier to drink with a straw and my doctor told me that I could:)

I just don't want to get depressed about my loss slowing down, and that's starting to REALLY get to me:/ I am attaching a picture of my self taken the day of the surgery and the next one was taken just a couple days ago:)

That's awesome Jess!! You are doing great and you look great!! I'm proud of your success!!!

My weight loss is a little slower than yours but I'm so proud of all of us!!

It has been a struggle and some days are better than others!! I'm still not 100% glad I had the surgery, but it's much better than it used to be.

What kind of things have you been eating?
