Down 56lbs in 11 weeks. Good to back on the forum

Wow can you believe it 56lbs in 11 weeks it is the most amazing thing ever. I am so glad I had this done. 3 days of hell was worth it. I feel great and have energy. I still am having a hard time getting in all my protein. I am so sick of eggs,cheese and turkey and chicken and the near thought of yougurt or pudding groses me out. I am noticing some minor hair loss but I have very thick hair so it it won't be noticiable. I am in onderland and I am wearing a size 16 I bought a some jeans at the Gap yesterday. it felt great to be  able to buy from there again. The other day I ran into somebody that hasn't seen me since I had the surgery and they didn't even regonize me. I hate when people say keep it up. Like we have a choice as to keep loosing or not. Very annoying, just like I can't stand when people say oh I can tell you lost weight in your face. Yeah I lost 56lbs in my face. What is wrong with people. I am addicited to iced coffee. Tommorow I am gonna try to add some unflavored protein powder in it. Well I hope everyone is doing good and will post again soon. Working full time in a factory and taking care of 2 kids and a house doesn't leave me with much time to go on the coumputer. But I am going to cehck this forum out every other day. Talk to you all soon. Sheila

Amazing!!  Good for you.  You should be so proud of yourself ... I'm happy for your success.  Oops -- I was almost gonna type "keep it up"! Sorry, just a habit. All the best to you -- LisaD

So good to hear from you again.  Great weight loss. 

WOOWOO Sheila, congrats to you!  You're doing awesome, sweetie!  Keep it up!

That is great.   What an amazing weight loss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    Sally

Another inspiration for us up and coming losers!!!  Kudos to you and I wish you well in your journey.   Jessica 

Hey Shelia, Congratulations!  YOU ARE DOING AMAZING 56 pounds! yippeee!!!!  " I hate when people say keep it up. Like we have a choice as to keep loosing or not." I am one who says "keep it up"  (encouraging someone to keep with their plan!) - most people certainly do have a choice on if they keep losing or gain weight. It all depends on what goes in your mounth and if you follow the rules.  Congratulations and WELCOME to ONEderland!!!! wishing you continues success!! Have you tried the Achieveone protein drinks? if you like iced cofee drinks you will LOVE 'em hugs, Britt

this is just the beginning if you continue to do what your surgeon says you will be at goal in no time the key is to take it one day at a time and keep up the good work... the protien thingy will come trust me ....... soon you will be able to rely on all foods to get your protien in .... right now its just a matter of dicapline and self control and sounds like your doing awesome

Sheila, You are doing just awesome!  I'm with you about the protein...you get sick of it...I found South Beach Diet meal bars..they are good and have 19 grams. I am looking forward to Onederland (14 pounds to go) and to shopping in a "regular" store. Congrats!!! Rosemary

Congrats on your loss. Amazing is right!! Loved your comment, " Yeah, I lost 56lbs in my face". Cracked me right up. Think next time someone tells me that I'll fling it back at 'em...LMAO!!
