New goal is 150, and I'm hoping to be thereby my surgiversary! I am around the same starting weight (280) and want to lose 20-30 before surgery. 160 has always been my goal! I'm really glad to see that you did it and it makes me think that I can do it too. If you don't mind me asking, did you stick very well to the diet? Aka eating a lot of Protein, vegetables, not a lot of junk food? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aka eating a lot of Protein, vegetables, not a lot of junk food? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I lost a lot of weight years ago on Atkins, so I already knew that eating low carb worked well for me. Since surgery, I've stayed focused on hitting my Protein & Water goals. These days, I typically get 100-120 protein and keep my carbs around 50ish (mainly from vegetables). I also told myself that there's nothing that I can't have, because that just sets me up for failure. But at almost 11 months post op, I still choose not to eat highly processed foods most of the time. I also started working out 6 days a week at about 4 months out, and lots of walking. The key for me was making small, sustainable changes and not looking at this as being on a diet. This is my life now, and every change I've made has been something that I'm comfortable doing forever. Follow the plan and find what works for you… you'll get there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
