What are you doing to work on the size pack?


Thank you so much for the compliment . I don't really see a six pack. I do see a smaller waist and my stomach size is smaller than it used to be. I use my elliptical 3-4 times a week and I do an ab workout app from my iPhone like 3 or 4 days a week. That's it really. I don't see what everyone is talking about ... I want a six pack so bad, lol.

I'm trying it's really a struggle but the results just make me want to keep going harder. Im so happy for u !!!

Goldenbarbie you are so right . It is very hard and it takes discipline. But the reward is life and one can't beat that. A chance at a healthier, more fulfilling life. So the sacrifice is worth it. I'm nowhere near perfect but I strive to do better every day because this is a lifestyle change not a change until I reach goal. We will get there and exceed all expectations. God is able to see us through this. I have 25 more lbs to go until goal and I want to kick my goals butt and surpass it. I want to be on a poster and say " this used to be me ( holding up jeans big enough for 2 of me to fit in ) " 😂 lol

Thank you so much . I'm glad to inspire someone but I just feel I am doing average. I want to do way more and be that girl who defeated all the statistics about heart disease, sleep apnea, joint pain, liver issues, edema in extremities, chest pain and generalized depression due to weight gain ( because that is so real whether or not docs acknowledge it or not it is real). Everyday that God gives me strength, I am doing my best to make a difference in my life and I want to be a blessing to others as well. I truly thank everyone here because whether or not you all know it, you have been my source of strength and inspiration throughout this journey and even before I started the journey. So I thank everyone who has commented on a post or sent me a private message to encourage me. I am forever in your debt.

Thank you so much for the kind words. Please post a pic , so I can check out my competition, lol. I'm just kidding but I would like to see a pic of your progress as well. I am on a 3 month training program n I will post at the end of it a whole body pic and I am really focusing on my abs and my little itty , bitty butt( I posted pre surgery that I was worried it would go away well it's like 80% gone so now it's an itty bitty cute butt instead of a bubble butt sadly,lol) . So I'm hoping by the end of June my abs are ripped up a lil more ... I want more definition.

      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.
