4.5 months update & pics

[The New Kel 1,312]

Hi everyone!

I'm 4.5 months post-op sleeve and feel amazing. Some of the things that continue to amaze me lately are trying on clothes and having to double check the size...could that really be a 10?? Also doing things out all day and rarely feeling tired. What a gift! If only I had done this years ago!! I'm about 30 lbs from goal, and feel confident I'll get there sometime this summer.

Eating is getting a tiny bit easier. I can now eat 3 oz at a time without too much trouble. I am able to enjoy quite a variety of vegetables and salads now, which I had really missed the first 4 months. My diet is mainly meats and fish, leafy greens, nuts, seeds, yogurt and a variety of cheeses. I'm exercising about 3 times a week for one hour. Life is good!

Yay! You look great!!

We are in a similar spot. 10's are fitting me, too and I'm starting to fit into 8's. It's amazing and mind boggling. I, too, am thinking I'll be to goal sometime this summer. I wish it were sooner, but I'm just coming off a month long stall and my weight loss has slowed to an average of 5 pounds a month. I can't even complain, really. As long as it's leaving, I'm ok with it.

Same here! My weight loss is down to 5 lbs a month as well but I'm fine with that also. And like you, I just got off of a really long stall!! Congrats on your size 10s and soon to be 8s!!!!

You look amazing. This journey has been a blessing for me as well. I'm 4.5 monthes out too and the changes are sooo welcomed. Hw 350 sw 301 cw 235. Though I am in a stall, I feel amazing. Golfing, walking, playing basketball with grandson and dancing with grand dtr. Things I always said "I'm too tired" to do. Wish I would have done this sooner. No longer on meds for diabetes. Praise God. I go up and downstairs without holding railing or stopping to catch breath.
Can't imagine what I'm gonna feel like when I get in the 100s.
God bless and thanks for sharing.
