Topic: RE: hows everyone doing at 6 months out!
I will offically be at 6 months tomorrow the 30th. As of today I have lost 102 lbs, I want to loose another 48 to reach my goal of 170. Things I can do now that I couldnt do 6 months ago...... sit comfortably in a movie theater seat, and stadium seat. Go tubing, walk for 45 minutes at 3.5 miles per hour on a 6% incline. walk up 2 flights of steps without my heart racing, sleep through the night without waking myself up snoring eat 4-6 ounces of food and feel full, walk past candy, cakes, cookies, without wishing I was eating them. and last but not least, buy clothes without X's in the size. It has been a great journey, and am so glad I found this site to converse with all of you.

Great Job!!!
I lost 2 lbs a day the first month after my surgery then I slowed down to 1 lb a day. Of course its much slowern now, but I dont think it is uncommon to loose a lot really fast at first. Keep up the great work.

Hi Kim,
I didn't lose anything for 4 weeks and managed to gain 4 lbs. and then bounce up and down daily!
Hang in there, its just your body fighting for what it thinks is you best weight, but you have the tool to fight, it may just take a bit longer!

Topic: RE: Best decision ever made... HONESTLY
Congrats to ya,
I had a physicians Assistant ask me yesterday at my 6 mo. checkup if I had any regrets and if I would do it again. I said in a heartbeat, no regrets at all, ok maybe that they had to remove the headhunger. But other than that not one thing.
I feel so healthy, and one lady today said I hold my head up high and glow. I'm not sure about the glowing part I think that is inner happiness shinning through!

Congrats Kelli,
I know how you feel about the slow part, I found out yesterday with my 6 mo. checkup that avacados are high in calories. I went through a gotta have it stage where they tasted great and were cheap too! No wonder I have been on a plateau for a month!
I had to muster up all the energy I could just to get down one pound. I need to excersise more dang it!
Will someone get the whip out and get me started!!!
You all are doing great, how lucky we were to join the other side.
Congrats All of Ya!
