Jasminelums 50 Posted April 17, 2016 Whoa!! You should be proud of yourself! What a difference and in only 13 months??! Thanks for sharing your inspiring success. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foodfighter78 258 Posted April 17, 2016 Thank you! Is been a roller coaster. My head is not connected with my body. I feel still obese. I'm working on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LisaMergs 2,854 Posted April 17, 2016 Amazing!!! You're inspiring! I'm just over 3 weeks out and already stalling. Not too worried- I'm walking 4-5 miles a day, started with a personal trainer and have a great support system ( btw I had bypass). Just kind of frustrating. Good news is my BMI has already dropped over 5 points. That's an accomplishment! But I did think the scale would move faster. I'm at the point where I have decided to only get on it weekly.

LisaMergs 2,854 Posted April 17, 2016 Thank you! Is been a roller coaster. My head is not connected with my body. I feel still obese. I'm working on it. Funny thing for me- I've only seen myself as obese when I see a picture of myself. Day to day my mind still thought of itself as thin. Darn mirrors and pictures always reminded me though!!!

Steph~L~16 168 Posted April 17, 2016 Lisa I totally agree with you! I don't see myself being THAT big until I see a picture or catch a glimpse at a full length mirror. Then I feel so self conscious after that for a while. I have even second-guessed my decision for WLS several times until I see pictures!

I'm at the point where I have decided to only get on it weekly.I feel a slow but steady loss is the best way physically and mentally. You are taking all the right steps, just follow your doctor instruction and it's great you are exercising! I had to stop In December because my low calories intake, but I'm getting stronger so I'll start again on Monday. ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
