I went back about 7 days after..it was a really rough few days(just really tired) but I think going back helped me to get up and back on my feet after laying around and resting so much. I have a job where I sit half of the time, so that helped. Good luck on your surgery!

Hi! I had the Gastric Sleeve on 5-31-16 and am just over 5 weeks out. My health is definitely improving..I am off all blood pressure meds since week one, and I have been on them for 10 years. I am down 37 lbs and am enjoying that also. I can't say I'm to the point where I'm sooo glad I did this, but I am getting there day…

Welcome back! I am just re-starting my journey too. You can do this!!! :)

Awesome job! :)

WTG! You look great! :)

I just started yesterday and am feeling so good about it! Looking to lose 80 lbs. Feel free to add me and we can support each other along the way! :)

So sorry for your losses...I am just re-committing to getting healthy again also..feel free to add me :)

So much positivity in this...I love it :) Today I am grateful for new beginnings~

I have a really hard time committing to things & sticking to it. I am trying to get started AGAIN also. Feel free to add me :)

Doing that all on your own in 11 months is amazing!!! Very inspirational! Congrats! :)

Way to go! That's awesome :)

Congrats on the 30 lb loss! Feel free to add me :) I'm recently recommitted to my weight loss journey.. One day at a time~

Your smile in the second pic definitely says it all! Congrats! :)

To live longer for my girls & to stop sitting out on the fun things in life because of my weight!

I just joined the Lose 20 lbs by Christmas group, and I have about 75 lbs to lose...just beginning again today..feel free to add me! :) I plan on being on every day

Wow. This is so right..thanks for this :)

I have to say this is a "light bulb" moment for me, and definitely a new way of thinking when approaching many things in my life, especially my weight & weight related issues. Thank you!!!!

I know how hard it is to get a hold on things...way to go! When struggling with weight loss, each day you don't give in is cause to celebrate! I am struggling myself and can't even seem to make it one full day...working on it. Keep it up! :)

Thank you all for all the responses and for being so kind!! I'm going to go on my own exercising at home first and maybe join a gym later down the road to firm up. You guys have let me know that I can lose weight at home and your successes were very inspirational! Thanks again!

Quitting smoking AND losing 100 lbs is a huge accomplishment! You should be proud! Congrats!!

You are doing great! And a sweet little baby is the best reason ever to take a break from losing! Congrats on your success! :)

I'm a 32 year old SAHM re-starting my journey tomorrow to lose 80 lbs..feel free to add me and we can help each other along the way! :)

Thanks for all the feedback..so many truths and things to think about..I appreciate the advice! :)

Thanks for sharing! It's awesome that you beat depression and won the battle with your weight! I know your mom would be so proud of you :) you are truly an inspiration!

Thank you for your replies! Trying to figure it all out, I appreciate the advice!

Great job! I can definitely see a big difference. Wtg!

Great start!! :wink: :smile:

I can definitely relate to how you are feeling. I too did not ever imagine I would be at the weight I am, and I too am bigger than I have ever been. I get frustrated and can't even guess how many nights I've been sooo determined to start my diet and then the next day I fail miserably. I used to be a happy go lucky person,…

Glad to have you both as friends! We can do this, and we will! :))

Amazing job!!! Congrats!! =))
