Tiffany you are getting close to your half way goal too!   Thank you for the compliment.  It's funny...the better I feel the more time I take getting ready.  I was the Queen of wearing sweats (everywhere) and now I hardly put them on.  I'm actually comfortable sitting in jeans!  That's a big shocker for me. I'm really working on treating myself better...it's rough.  I'm so used to self doubt, being mad at myself for bad habits...it's hard to change.  But I am trying! See you soon Tiffany!

Hey Lisa!  That is so amazing that you are already half way there!  Amazing!   I wouldn't stress about Diane (the PA), she probably gave you a really high goal because you'd done so well at your one month post op visit.  My 3 month goal is apx. 50 pounds (total, not in addition to what I'd already lost), and you've already lost 60!  You're way ahead of me! Congratulations!  I am so happy for you!

Thank DeAnna.  I feel better now.  I left my one month thinking...oh crap, how am I going to hit that goal?  Diane must just give out big goals to keep us on the right track? hmmm, we'll see what she says at the visit.  I'm trying not to get all worked up about numbers.  It's hard when you've spent so long hating them! My daughter just walked by and said...Mommy, that lady is pretty!  So there you go Missy...your compliment for the day! See you soon!

That is just so awesome!!! I know what you mean about goals and weight loss goals because that seemed to set me up for failure previously. AlthoughI never had a goal after wls, I did okay. Maybe I could have done better if there had been some type of follow up. However now, nearly 6 year out, I do have goals which has made me incrediably successful this many years out losing. So work for them goals and you will achieve great success girl!!!! You are doing fantastic!!! Kisses

Thank you.  I know goals are just guidlines you are shooting for.  I know if I keep doing the right thing I will get there.  I have a good friend who is 5 years out and I watch her eating habits and know that the maintence will be a time of goals too.  Once the weight is off it's still work to keep it off!
