NSV: They dont fit...
I had to buy work clothes for my "professional job" so I went out to the local Lane Bryant and bought a pair of size 18 dress pants (the ones with the yellow sticker, cause I have no hips or butt, just a lot of belly) I wore them today... and they don't fit they are to big!!! 50 bucks for a pair of pants that are baggy on…

Before and after pics - 51 pounds gone (I hope I posted the
Okay, I'm attempting to post before and after pics of me since I started my weight loss journey. On February 10 I had a vertical sleeve gasterectomy. Before the surgery I lost 20 pounds, and since then I've lost 31 more! For anyone who said that weight loss surgery is the easy way out, they obviously never had it. NOTHING…

My slightly past MIDWAY point - 71lbs lost =)
I was just at the gym a couple of days ago and was looking into the FULL, WALL-LENGTH MIRRORS *gasp!* when I came to the realization that I wasn't making sounds like "Ugh!" or "D*mn, you're fat!* and so on....instead, I was saying things to myself like "Hey, look at you!" and "Yup, coming along there". For the first time I…

Surprising PR today! Have you hit any milestones?
I've been training for a half marathon (this race has an obstacle course!) coming in May. Today I ran 6 miles, the farthest I've ever run nonstop IN MY LIFE! Even when I was playing sports in high school I couldn't do that! I couldn't stop smiling during the last mile cause I was so excited about making this PR. Have you…

Is there a difference??
I feel like I was a totally different person before I started losing.. I've never seen myself look that unhappy and miserable! SO I was wondering - is there a difference? I've lost 31lbs and some days I can see a difference and some days I look the same! The first three are me at 256lbs in April 2010. The next ones are me…

3 NSV in one weekend!
Went to talk to my neighbour on Friday and she had a friend with her who I haven't seen in over six months and she noticed I'd lost a lot of weight. Then at my Dad's his wife's son actually noticed I'd lost weight too, and he isn't normally that observant! On a slightly sadder NSV my wedding ring is getting very loose. My…

Small loss *pics*
So, I promised myself I wouldn't post any before/after shots until I had lost at least 50lbs, but I've changed my mind. I'm not sure I notice a difference, even though I know there is one. Here is me 25lbs heavier. (hope this picture works and isn't huge!) And today- I've got a LONG way to go still, I'm 1/4 of the way…

So I did my weigh-in this morning, excited to see what my final number is. I hopped on the scale and to my surprise, it was 160.5, YAY!!! I have lost a total of 17.5 lbs, challenging myself for 90 days to make simple adjustments to my diet and it worked! This was with little to no exercise, just diet change, I'm so…

skinny jeans
so, when i started actively changing my life last fall, i only knew that i had weighed close to 185 during the summer. it wasn't a conscious decision to start doing this, so i didn't take measurements and i didn't buy a scale. i just got really into superfoods and started walking to work everyday and drinking tons of…

15 lbs down...
OK...not a GIANT victory, but a victory nonetheless. I really didn't think the weightloss would show but I took pics today and apparently IT SHOWS!!! I tried to post the pics, but apparently a naked belly shot is considered bad to their standards, so they won't put it up, but I will post the link to the album so u can view…

New wardrobe question For the successes out there!
How do you guy go about getting a new wardrobe? I mean, if you’re halfway where you want to me, in most cases, you have lost a ton of weight already, so you’re old clothes don’t fit. But when you’re still planning on losing more weight, what do you do? Maybe weight isn’t the right way to say this. Dress sizes. If you start…

Crazy shopping NSV

Found a polo shirt, size large, good price, my wife thought it looked a bit big so she found a medium and gave it to me to try on...and it fit like a glove over my t-shirt. A MEDIUM! I think the last time I wore a…
