I want to join!!!! CW : 155 GW : 140 or lower I really want to concentrate on toning up and getting fit not just losing weight. Id like to work out 5 - 6 days a week for an hr.

I understand where you are coming from but going from obese to almost a healthy weight I see both sides. I was 304 in january. When women said that it would set me off too. Girls who were sticks would complain and I had this. one very very mean girl in nursing school tell me she would kill herself if she ever became my…

Harvest Pork Stew. Made with pork chops, onions, carrots, apples, butternut squash, and 1 potato.

And my reply would be "and you're a douche bag" I am almost 7 lbs to a healthy bmi but when I was 300 lbs I didn't need anyone to TELL me I was fat. I have mirrors for that. People have to want to change. Love them and support them. That doesn't mean say its ok to eat that box of donuts but they really don't need your…

Well in 5 months I had lost about 100 lbs. Went from a 24 to a 14/16. Id ask if there is a way to hold off on getting the dress. Because of the rapid weight loss its almost impossible to tell what size you'd be. I skipped 18 and went right to a 16.

First I want to punch ur ex in his ****ing ****. You are beautiful!! I've lost 146 lbs and my stomach is waayyy worse than that!! And my bf says I'm beautiful. If he said otherwise id punch him in HIS ****. I guess I'm violent huh? Lol. Don't stress with the new beau. If he loves you it won't matter. Continue to work out…

Hi everybody!! My name is Nicole. I am 24 yrs old. I had sleeve surgery on jan 24th 2011. My starting weighjt was 304 and I am now 158. 146 lbs lost!! I still have 18 lbs til goal and its going by slow. I have regained my hunger. Not too bad but I can eat a little more. But maybe about 1/2 cup more especially softer foods.…

Take it one day at a time!! I experienced a lot of nausea and went back for dehydration. Fluids are very important as are taking ur vitamins. And get ready for a lot of emotions!! I was happy and sad and mad and scared when I first got the surgery and the months following. My mind is still catching up with the weight loss.…

I had VSG on jan 24th 2011. My surgeon was Dr. Hammer in Springfield IL. I have lost 146 lbs!! My goal is 140 or maybe lower. I am currenty 158.

Kuddos to you for supporting ur daughter!! My sis is the closest thing I have to a mom and she was very aginst my surgery. She didn't come to the hospital and didn't visit me for a month after. I'm a single mom and had to do it all on my own right sfter having a major surgery. Thank u for being so supportive to your…

I had the sleeve of jan 24th. I've lost 146 lbs and I'm 18 lbs from goal. Starting weight was 304. No one knows what's right for u. I am also 24 and have been told by older wls patients that they wish they had done it at our age. My joint pain is gone. I feel comfortable in my own skin. I feel full after a cup of food and…

Surgery is not a fix all. I had VSG in Jan and have lost 146 lbs. I feel great and I'm healthy. Have u considered that the people you see eating crappy food where u work are having a treat??? I eat right 80% of the time but if I go out which is not very often I can have what I damn well please and if someone knows about my…

Me please!

I have the sleeve and I absolutely love it!! I was considering the lapband but did my research and the chance of it slipping was high and also in a lot of cases it has to be replaced within 5 yrs. That said I do know people who have been successful with the band and feel and look amazing but it just wasn't for me. I was…

I find that it helps clean my system out. I am very sensitive to caffiene and when I drink coffee I almost always have bowel movement within an hr. Sorry if that tmi but I am often irregular which causes bloating and after I get "cleaned out" the scale is at least a lb lighter. I know its not fat loss but it helps me see…

I would consider the options and go for what feels right. But I am a HUGE advocate for wls. I am 5'5" my highest weight was 304. I was miserable and depressed. I had the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy in January of this year and have lost over 140 lbs and still losing. I am now 161 with a goal of 140. I do have to watch what…

Dude she was asking a question. No reason to be rude. Its a valid question and maybe an answer will help her and maybe others who have wondered the same thing. To the OP - I agree with the others. Go with your calculations. It better to overestimate than underestimate. And don't worry I too get caught up in the little…

I actually love them!! When I was growing up my grandma made them all the time. She mashed them and added milk, butter, and sugar. I've always been a veggie lover and those were my favorite. I moved out when I was 15 and one day when I was like 20 I asked her what that was she used to make and she said rutabaga. I picked…

I'm interested!

I'm in!

Does that mean if I make chocolate milk that's good?? Love my Ovaltine!

Last yr I was a size 24 and this yr I am a size 10!!!!!

Ok I am getting a little tired of posts like these....I mean I get where ur coming from. Eating healthy is not easy in the real world. Come on ur not living in a bubble. There will be unhealthy yet delicious food all around u for the rest of ur life. I mean do u get pissed when u go to the grocery store or a restaraunt…

How do u scan? And I had the sleeve on jan 24 2011 and have lost 137 lbs!!!

I had the gastric sleeve on jan 24th 2011. I have gone from 304 to 165. Without very much effort at all. Now that I only have 25 lbs to go I have stalled and realized I have been drinking my calories and grazing. So trying to fix that and get back on track. I love my sleeve!!!!

I have no idea about the sauce but where did you get the gnocci?? Sounds great!!!
