Looking for Lightweights on you tube

 Hi,
I had my surgery April 16,2012. I am a lightweight. My starting BMI was 37.2 and my weightloss goal is 70lbs. I've lost 48lbs and my BMI is down to 27.3. I have 22lbs to go to reach my goal weight. I'm an avid YouTube watcher. I get a lot of good info and inspiration from them but I haven't been able to find a YouTube channel that features a " lightweight" I'm starting to hit some challenging times  during my wls journey and I would like to see how other lights weights coped or dealt with the bumps and challenges along the way. Do you  know of any lightweight YouTube broadcasters or channels? Please let me know. Thank you.

I don't know of any YouTube broadcasters, so I can't help you there.

We have several successful sleevers.  Hopefully some of them will post how they cope.

It does get harder the farther out you get.  There is  a pretty large group of us in maintenance now.  Support is so important to stay connected to.  Hope you either have a local support group or come online for support.

It helps me to post my meals on Roz's Menus and Miles each day and to do the daily weigh in on Sunday that Liz posts.  I also love to read the post that Gina(MajorMom) post each day.    I read all the post, but those are just 3 that are posted on a regular basis that help me stay where I want to be.  You can get some great ideas from here.

Good luck.

Linda

 Hi Pink, I haven't seen you around since seeing you in Vegas.  I hope you're  doing  well.  What sort of challenges are you facing?  I know that for me, to get te last 25 pounds off I had to eat around 900 calories, under 40 crbs and exercise 1-2 hours a day. That was after my first year sugiversary.  When I went back for my two year surgeon appointment, I was down those 25 pounds.

The last pounds can be really stubborn. I had to really fight hard to get them off.  You can do it!
