I'm so glad for you.  It never crossed my mind that for some this was a total lifestyle change.  I gues I never realized how lucky I've been that being fat never stopped me from doing anything other than wearing my thong publicly, lol.

Disney World!!! My favorite place in the world.  I adore the rides but with no litle ones left I have to fight to get anyone to ride with me.  I hope to get there in August with my neighbor.  Ten year olds are so much more fun than twenty somethings when no liquor is involved.  

Enjoy!!!

Actually I'm feeling pretty discouraged right now! Four weeks ago I weighed 219.5...... as of yesterday, 222!! I'm so down about it! 3 months out and I've lost 38lbs. I was expecting a lot more by now.

Hey Robin,
 I agree guess everyone is busy living their healthier lives now. I know I have more energy to do so now. Maybe that's there excuse for not being around here anymore.
So I am down almost 60 lbs now. I have another 45 or so to go.
My food is going down pretty well. Although at times chicken really needs alot of time to digest between bites.
Just bought a size 12/14 bathing suit. If you've seen any of my profile pics. My official before photo that bathing suit was a size 3x. I have one size 12 suit but have to much up top to fit it it properly. Boobs come out every which way.
Other than that everything is good. I just posted new pics from this weekend. Glad I can now shop in the normal size clothing shops.
You by the way are looking really good. And good for you for working out so much. The hard work is really showing.

Take care
Candie

Hi there,
By the way u are looking fabulous.  A major difference.  I just had my one month post op appt today.  It went real well.  I have lost 34 total from my surgery on April 27th and also a few pounds before surgery, making me down a total of  43 pounds gone.  I got to advance to stage 3 in my surgeons diet manual.  No more pureed blenderized foods.  Now on soft.  I can eat cheese sticks now and buy me some nice deli turkey slices.  Looking forward to going shopping in a few hours.  I can have unsweetned canned fruit now.  I tried a piece of toast with peanut butter on it for lunch, so far it sits great.  Some people I guess can't do the breads.  Have u done great with toast?  I did find out that I was doing one thing incorrectly.  My weight had stalled for nine days on the same number.  I thought if I only ate one meal a day and had a protein shake for breakfast then one for lunch I would drop.  This was a big NO NO.....  found out that I was getting too many calories from the protein shakes.  I would be better off trying to eat 3 small protein rich meals then thinking the drinking on liquid protein shake scenario would drop some weight.  I eventually got of the nine day plateau.  I was getting upset, I thought maybe my surgery quit working.  My surgeon thought it was funny.  I guess I'm right were I need to be for my one month out.    I do need to step up on the excercise now.  I can't weight lift for another two weeks, but I sure can get my butt out walking more.  I admit I haven't been too motivated cuz I'm enjoying my time of from work , being lazy around the house and going shopping alot.  I have been moving alot though.  I'm glad your alreay half way away from your goal.  My goal is 140 lbs.  Now I'm at 231  I started at 274.  I have 91 to go to goal, I don't think it will take me a year, I think I will be here in six months.  Take care.  Congrats on all your achievements so far.  YOu look wonderful. --Crystal

I'm still here form time to time! Glad to hear you conquered the weight gain and the scale is moving for you again. That must have been so frustrating.

I'm not here as much, I think, because I'm actually out living life for the first time in a long time. I feel comfortable in my own skin and just want to be out doing stuff. My girls finish school on Friday and then it's off to Disney World for 5 days! I'm so excited to ride and enjoy everything with out worrying if I'm too heavy or too big for the rides. I even bought a bathing suit to enjoy the pool. How great is that?!
