    <sigh>πŸ™„πŸ˜“ Downsieeeee and Upsieeeees πŸ˜–πŸ€ͺ I lose 2 last week and now I'm up 1.5πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈ ---my body seems to want to stay at this 158--- I really want to lost 10 more lbs and get to my 148 goal.... right now my BMI is at 24 (I am 5'8"). Am I trying for the impossible here???

    I am really feeling conflicted. πŸ™‡πŸ»β€β™€οΈ One of my MFP friends who lost twice the weight I have lost just had skin removal surgery and they took 6.6lbs off of her in skin--- leaves me wondering....how much of this weight is my skin weighing me down??? (I do have lots of thigh and belly skin left with me.)

    πŸ’ͺ🏻ON TO MAY---- hoping I can at least lost the 5lbs I have gained since February.

    HAPPY FRIDAY ALL!!πŸŽΆπŸ€—πŸŽΆπŸ’«

    Happy Friday πŸ˜ƒπŸ˜πŸ˜

    Hey Nancy, I just realised we are the same weight right now (158) and we have similar goal weights (mine is 147) 😁 I’m only 5”5 though, so a bit of a short *kitten* πŸ™ˆ I have the belly skin issue too but I think that’s possibly because I had to have a section when I had my baby. I’m left with this pouch like thing that I just tuck into my jeans ha ha. Let’s make May our month πŸ’ͺπŸ’

    I feel ya girl--- I have had 2 C-sections---two 10lb-ers!! Big babies---my second son was just shy of 2 feet looooong--- 23 1/2 inches long. He is now 6'3" tall with size 14 men's shoes--- crazy huh?!!!

    Post-pregnancy is tough to recover from---but I wish I had done it right away like you are. I also wish I had listened to my Mother who warned me to wear compression wear during and after my babies so I'd have less of a pouch.πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™€οΈπŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ


    Feel like I've been running in circles these past 6 months--eventhough I am 25 lbs less than I was this time last year--- but still--- GAAAH those last few are sooo stubborn!!

    I agree though--- we will have to bring it this next Month!!πŸ€—

    Oh WOW...2 10lb’ers 😱 That’s crazy! Mine was only 5lb 4oz and born early but that section has definitely messed my belly up! I couldn’t even look at myself in the mirror up until a couple of months ago. Then when I eventually did, I looked at my stomach and said out loud β€œWhat is THAT?!” πŸ˜‚

    Ah, wise words from your mum. Mine also recommended I wear a waist trainer thing but I didn’t bother. Maybe it would’ve helped.

    Yeah I’ve heard the last few pounds can be quite tough to shift. But...we will get there πŸ€—πŸ€žπŸ»πŸ’Ÿ

    Haha, well I kept flip flopping between these two weights this month. πŸ˜„

    My exciting news this week is that I earned my first belt in karate class! Woo! Being a nerdy guy, this is really my first physical accomplishment! πŸ₯‹πŸ‘ŠπŸ˜
    Nice loss and great accomplishment

    Ya that stinks. I’ve been up and down all week. This is the lowest this week so there’s that. I’ve been holding water all week. I don’t know if I can blame the ham I ate sunday and Monday at this point but it seems to do that to me. I’m sad cause I LOVE ham.

    Ok so there’s another week ahead of me and a new month starting, stay the course! Going to keep heading toward my 200 lb goal, 4 weeks to lose 9 pounds, see how I do! Hoping my karate classes will lend something to that.

    It can be so frustrating, but we’re still here and we got this. One of the reasons I love this group so much. Everyone is so supportive. May is a new month.

    UPDATE ON MY MOM: Her GI Tract still has not waking up from 2nd surgery on Monday so the Dietitian explained how she's finally got the doctor's to agree to feed my mom by IV which is protien, carbs, and fats it will bypass the GI Tract and go through the circulatory system so it will send signals to the brain that she's getting nutrition. Since she's been getting this for the last 5 hours her complexion has cleared tremedously and her spirits is much higher. STILL TRYING TO STAY POSITIVE BUT DO NOT LIKE SEEING MY MOM LIKE THISπŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯πŸ˜₯
    Hang in there. Hugs and prayers.
