Finally,

 

I've been hovering within a couple of pounds of my goal for months.  I'm exercising regularly and really staying the course with my eating.  I am now 10 months out of surgery and can totally feel that my habits and behaviors

ok, so my goal has been 195 and percent body fat of 15.  Today I weighed in at 196 and my Inbody scan came back with 14% body fat.  I've put on a significant amount of muscle (been working out hard with my trainer).  So I am just going to have to call

I am not a scientist, so I know that everything I say should be taken with a grain of non-salt seasoning.

 

But this whole "only blah blah net carbs" claim is total BS in my opinion and experience.  For example, Quest Bars (which I thin

Saw my doctor and he did the inbody scan again at 6 months post surgery.  I am officially of ''normal'' weight.  I came in at 16% body fat.  According to my doctor I have lost 100% of my excess weight.  I personally want to lose another 8 pounds for my

Ok, so I'm Jewish and don't celebrate Christmas...

 

The pictures says it all. (Please don't use that word though...I find it a bit to hokey for my tastes)  :-)

 

Over the moon happy right now.

This morning I stepped on the scale and have officially reached 100 pounds lost since I began at my highest.  It has been 5 1/2 months since surgery, and almost 8 months since I put my foot down and decided that I needed to choose life.  100 pounds lat

So its been 5 full months now.  Weight coming off like gang-busters.  So close to my goal I can taste it.  I have a few really cool landmarks just around the corner as well: just a few pounds till 100 lbs lost, a few more beyond that will get me below

So I bought a new suit last week (couldn't wait the final 20 pounds due to professional reasons...I'll be able to take the suit in when I finally reach goal) and I just picked it up today.  I feel  like a million bucks.  What a difference 90 pounds mak

i want to put a picture in a post but can't figure it out.  When I click on the insert picture Icon, I don't see how to navigate to where I have it saved on my puter.  It just says "source" but wants me to type something in, not browse and click.

hi,

 

I began on this forum a bit late in my process.  My health tracker is showing the weight I was at a later time then when I began.  I used to be able to change it easily on the same page, now I don't see where to do it.  I clicked

I am still about 20 pounds from goal, but really needed a new suit. The salesman looked at me and said, 44R? I laughed and thanked him for flattering me but figured I'd need at least a 46. Nope...44 was perfect. And that's great news because with m

Or is it just me?


Mathew M. posted a discussion topic 8 years, 5 months ago

I am 4 months post op and have not seen any hair loss. I know that it can take up to 6 months to start, so I know I'm not out of the woods yet...but...is it necessarily inevitable? Or do some people dodge that bullet for whatever reason? Do some peo

Am I doing something wrong or are the progress tickers still down???

I can't believe it is taking them so long to fix what they broke with the "upgrade."


Mathew M. posted a discussion topic 8 years, 5 months ago

no, not my heart.

I have changed my current weight to 222, and my goal remains set at 195, but for some reason, my health tracker widget tag keeps saying 33 pounds to go. I know I have never been very good at math, but I'm reasonably

I was speaking to an Israeli friend of mine yesterday in Hebrew and she said (I'm translating of course), "you look amazing, you are becoming a real 'piece'!" The word she used was חתיך, which yes, does literally mean "piece" but it is also slang
