I am just over 8 months out...down about 101lbs and just started working out this weekend! I love it! i have been to the gym for 3 days in a row now, and and hoping the addiction kicks in=)...still considered a slow loser, but I feel amazing!...

OK, SO I DIDNT LOSE THE LBS I WANTED BY END OF JANUARY, BUT ME AND MY GF'S HAD A GREAT TIME....
AS I NEAR THE 100LB MARK, I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR THIS SURGERY AND JOURNEY!!!
WHEN I LOOK AT THIS LATEST PIC I CANT BELIEVE HOW FAR IVE COME.....
THE SAGA CONTINUES....

 

Well, here I am 4 Months out , with true before and after pics of my very own! I cant believe it...I can finally see it... Thank God...I feel like myself again, and cant wait to meet the new me 4 months from now!... I am so grateful to all of my Oh family for all the love and support... I love my RNY!

 

K so...um Yeah! tomorrow is officially 3 months...and I am in some sort of losing mode this week! I am finally feeling the difference and one big reason is that i finally fit into "the jeans" yay! i am wearing them today and feel great... I will take my 3 month pics and post them this week...
much love

yay! I woke up this morning and saw the 7! that is 61 lbs down and 2 more days before its off icially my  3 months out.... 30 more lbs and i will be the lowest weight since I was about 20 years old...crazy... ok, so I need to lose 15lbs for December and 15lbs for January to reach my next goal of 249 by Jan 24th...why jan 24th? Well I have 5 girlfriends that I grew up with, and we meet every 10 years...when we turned 30, and now when we turned 40....we are doing a Palm Springs weekend and if I get down to 249..that will be 91 lbs lost....239 would be ok too lol...that would be 101 lbs lost....and from what i have read totally do-able...so there, I've said it, set it...that is my immediate short term goal: 15 to 20 lbs each for the next 2 months...can I do it? we shall see!=)

down 58 lbs... yes, still feel like it should be more but i lost 4.5 lbs last week after being in a stall for a few weeks and I am in deep ketosis right now...So hopefully I will be at 60-65 lbs by the end of my 12th week...Ive seen alot of 70 -75 lbs around month 3...so idk... But i will say that I now fit into shirts i have been dying to wear again...(see new pics) and that did make me smile=)...yell out actually=)...and pants too... I  lost 80 lbs last year and did alot of retail therapy.... then gained it ALL back in a 6 month period of time right before surgery....devastating... but now i have a closet full of clothes to fit in to...cant wait til they are all way too big...sigh*
so when i hit that weight I was last year, then I will feel like I've done something!... im nuts... but i guess the way i feel is pretty normal around these parts=)..thanks to my oh fam for letting me know i am not alone... =)the saga continues

ok, so I am officially 6 weeks out ...down 43 lbs ...and sort of freaking out that i am not losing fast enough...I feel like I have been in a stall for weeks although i have lost a few lbs here and there... Why does it feel like it is not going to come off? I am sure i am not alone in this irrational thinking but I have a number in my head... That number is 262 and it was my weight last year at this time when i was losing weight on Lindora...and really, until i hit that number, i wont feel like i have lost a thing...WWHY? because, I worked extremely hard to lose it..and then to gain it back, yes, I said it...I had to have worked really hard to gain it all back in 6 f-ing months!... so.. i want that 36 lbs off today!!! alas... its just the addict in me talking...instant gratification... that is what i desire... but patience is what i am in need of!..So what did i do today? I got my ass up and took a walk...ashamed to admit that it was my first attempt in 6 weeks...but nevertheless I did it...and I will do it again tomorrow...and the next day...and just take this thing one day at a time....Ahhhh
thank you for letting me share=)
much love
