Two month Check in!
Tomorrow it will be 3 months since my surgery. It has been quite a ride, and I am doing fabulous! Since my all time highest weight I've now lost 95 pounds, down from 350lbs to 255. (~25 lbs of the weight lost was pre-surgery) This is awesome considering I am 6'4"
Pant waist size is now officially down to 40" from 52" waist. I decided to buy new work clothes every 6 inches, so my 46" pants are getting WAY too baggy, and I have some new 40" pants on mailorder. I am elated that my shirt size is officially now an XL from 3XL and sometimes a 4XL. So far I have absolutely no signs that I will need plastic surgery.
Strengths: Getting in at least the 60 g of protein each day, drinking my water, and taking my vitamins.
Weaknesses: Exercise-- I've increased my exercise substantially over the past couple weeks, but I still have quite a way to go. Wanting to increase both cardio and resistance training. Reading some of the posts here, there are many of the "Marchers" that seem to be doing alot better than me on the exercise. You are my inspiration.

You are doing wonderfully. I know you have to be jumping for joy and kissing the sky every chance you get.
So far I have lost 34 lbs since March 27th. I was starting to get upset about it but I realize that I have lost even more inches. I am starting to see a major difference. I bought my first paif of size 16 pants in almost 10 years. Down 2 sizes..thats hot.
Strength: I am getting that protein in and not over eating. I have learned that when my body says enough..that is it.
Weakness: I still need to get the water in and stop drinking so much green tea. I am going to turn green soon. I also need to stop stepping on the scale every time I go into the bathroom. I need to increase my exeerecise too, especially if I want to be a size 14 before I go to Jamaica next month.
