So weird news. I feel like I just got skinny overnight. Like literally I feel like this weekend I felt skinny and small and sexy for the first time during this journey. these were a size 9 junior jeans and they were corseted (so all the way up the waist) so i didn't think i was gonna be able to fit them but here they are. i'm in them. they aren't loose but i'm in them! lol. and yeah my fupa is still an issue (fatty upper pubic area/lower stomach) but still. it was good. so this was the weekend. I'm not sure why. But I'm grateful. And excited to keep going. I stood next to my gf who weighs 98lbs and I managed to look normal. post-255097-14627447982266_thumb.jpg

You look great and all the things you said... is so true! Im glad you are finally feeling that great feeling of "healthy". I dont like to say Skinny because... I guess I don't. My bff is also 98 lbs but shes like 5'1 or 5'. I think your journey has been great. Good work. Inspiring as always yo!

@Rose1up! I know right? it's so weird. most days i still feel 200+lbs! but this weekend. finally. i felt skinny and sexy and good lol. my Yady is 5 feet tall also lol. of course she's trying to gain weight and that, in and of itself, is a struggle and i support her in it the same as she supports me in mine!

now in the meantime i ate all bad most of the weekend (here's mother's day dinner with my dad, grandma and bf) and didn't work out so now i'm 159 today LOL. time to get back to it! have a great week everyone! :)

152.2 - officially down 80lbs. i never in my wildest dreams thought i would be saying this. you just don't understand. im such a lazy person. every time i'm up and doing fasted cardio at 7am it's a shock to me like i can't believe i'm doing it and i can't believe it's me. and when i want to stop before my time or calorie goal. i just don't. i don't know why i don't stop. i just don't. some part of me pushes on. this really is a life changer. i'll post a pic later. xoxo everyone! 13235956_10209086243210503_478063685_n.j

Hey dudes. Sigh. So I'm 150 today and I know I should b excited but I'm mopey and going thru a break up plus I have like zero appetite right now so eating is a big challenge. Yesterday I had like four ounces of steak and lots of vodka lol. Anyways. I bought a size 8 slack and when I tried it on it fit loose [emoji37] which is good and bad at the same time lol. #neweardrobewoes. Anyways gonna use my newfound free time to start training at a gym instead of at home so that should help with my flabbiness and mopiness. Have a great week ya'll. Xo

tummy to tummy comparison lol. 81lbs down. the scars are fading nicely. i don't have a lot of loose skin but there are things sagging. i have a small waist but i still have my stupid FUPA <_< my butt, my boobs, some on the arms and inner thighs are saggy too. i did lift weights for most of the journey which i think helped but i need to tone up big time. i will definitely have surgery if i can afford it and im unhappy at the end. 13269436_264494770570855_539861819_n.jpg13296327_10209147901311917_2067580344_n.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
