Celebrate you today!

[KimA-GA 540]

Today is a day for everyone to Celebrate themselves! Post one accomplishment, achievement, baby step, thing that made you happy! Toot your own horn and celebrate something no matter how big or small today! It can be weight loss, personal achievement, work achievement, walking in a store, going outside your comfort zone or whatever you want ….

Here’s mine:

I am finally down 10 lbs from surgery after my adventures and dropping fas (Saturday I was half a pound above surgery weight due to ivs etc), and one pound from loosing 100 this calendar year!

I celebrate my body is healing, infection clearing snd all the Fluid is leaving so I can smile at the fat loss finally showing up on the scale.

your turn!

Celebrating almost 10lbs down on preop diet, not cheating on it showing my commitment and the idea of warming chocolate Protein Shake this morning [emoji5].

I'm celebrating the end to my 1st big stall that was over 3 weeks long. I'm also just on the cusp of one under land so today is a great day and I'm excited again! The weight of a stall is way heavier then I expected and I'm so very happy to be done with it and also scared that I'm jinxing myself. For today though, I'm super happy!

THANK YOU for making this thread! The timing couldn't have been more perfect! Also so happy to see you lost your first 10lbs!

This morning I found out I now weigh 179's which means I now WEIGH LESS than I did in High School & I'm 30yrs old. Leaving the 180's was such a big deal for me mentally & emotionally since being a big kid in high school was so rough. I feel like this is finally helping my past-self heal. I'm doing it for current me & past me 😌

I am amazed that i made it to day three of the pre op. I gave away most of the food in the house but today i saw some salami, cheese and ham i missed. I thriew it away really fast adn poured some Water on it. This may seem small and silly but it made my day.

I don't why today i have felt really hungry, i still have two Protein Shakes to go though and can broth. I have drank a ton of water. I am hoping this is the worst of the hunger days because day one and two i wasn't hungry at all.

I love this post! I have been staying under my calories for many months now. I am still waiting for my surgery date. I have lost 25lbs since I started on this journey. I have my 2nd appointment with my team tomorrow. I hope it goes well.

Love this!!! I’m celebrating 25lbs down on my 1st post op visit. I felt so good I cried in the office. I felt so proud of myself. Let’s keep this good energy going!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Wonderful post & message @KimA-GA. I often say Celebrate every pound lost too. You’ve worked hard to lose it & it heralds a brighter future.

So many things are worth celebrating. Big & small. And remember those successes & happiness on days when things don’t go as well as you hoped like when the scale doesn’t move.

I started maintenance in July and had been doing pretty well, but I have been dealing with a lot of stress with an aging mother who has a serious health problem that started in 2021. The stress has really gotten to me lately and for the past few weeks I wasn't tracking my food anymore and doing a lot of stress eating. There has been candy in the house from Halloween and I have eaten more of than I should. I finally weighed last week and was up 5 pounds. Some of that was probably Water because of my period, but I got back on track after that. I'm proud to say I have tracked my food all week and didn't eat a bunch of junk and my weight is back down!
I have been so scared since I got to maintenance that I won't be able to keep this weight off, or that if I did gain some I would get discouraged and not get back on track, so this week made me realize I CAN do it. [emoji4]

BUMP because this is a good thread!

Today I am celebrating the fact that I now weigh 159, which is LESS than I weighed during a certain year middle school! I'm VERY happy 😊

I am celebrating not having a cigarette in 24 hours. My goal is to get myself healthy this year. I have my consultation tomorrow and I said I was going to not pick up another cigarette after tomorrow, but I think I’m going to just try to stick it out today too!
