Since I had surgery, I started eating these Think Thin protein bars http://thinkproducts.com/ I also had eaten Quest Protein Bars as well: http://www.questnutrition.com/ I don't know if these will work,…

Yes! I had to start working out before I had to get surgery. I was the first woman to lose as much pounds before having the surgery as a woman! This was according to my Bariatric surgeron. Lost 60 pounds before the surgery. I am still working out now, thanks to the my Exercise program. Thanks for the question!

Yes! I have almost no diseases. I do have a few energy issues, but I feel so much better that I did in the past! Thanks so much!

Hey! I'm still in the process of losing weight as well. I had Gastric Sleeve Surgery last year, so I am now 1-year post-op and I've lost almost 200 pounds so far. I am still losing weight, but it is hard to maintain my weight. I know exercising and eating a healthy diet are the main keys. However, protein is the most…

I was in my lowest point for a long time since my college years. I started gaining weight and never stopped. It got worse when I was in my junior year in college. I wasn't able to move as much. I had a hard time getting through my remaining years in college. I was able to graduate from CSUSB, but I still had weight issues.…

Hi there! It took me a long time to get to where I am right now. I was heavy for a long time. I was in the 400 pound mark. I weighed a total of 430 pounds to be honest. When I found out that I was having many health problems, I knew I had to do something. So, I decided to get Bariatric Surgery last year. I was scared at…

I was gaining weight throughout my college years. In almost 10 years, I reached an approx. 430 pounds. It was my highest weight overall. I decided to get the Gastric Sleeve surgery last year. I then had to commit to exercising for the rest of my life. Since my surgery and throughout my journey in 2012, I have been…

Congratulations on your new baby girl! I just started last year. Feel Free to add me. I know you'll do fine if we believe in ourselves.

I was pre-diabetic before I had the Gastric Sleeve surgery last year. I also had other health problems as well. Feel free to add me. I know it's difficult, but if you believe you can get through this trial, anything is possible if you believe in yourself. Just lost almost 180 since my surgery last year and now I am 239.9…

Hey! I just started my journey last year and it feels great to lose weight. Feel free to add me, I already lost almost 200 pounds by my bariatric surgery. I was almost up to 500 pounds, so I had to do something to get motivated again. We can get motivated together, just believe in yourself. I am now 244 pounds and it feels…

The main key for me is to exercise everyday. Walking helps as a start for beginners. If you increase your exercises one week at a time, it will be better in the long run. Exercising for at least 30 a day will help get a head start. I had gastric sleeve surgery last year and I am now 11 months post-op. Most of my meals were…

I love to dance. Although I am not a dancer professionally, I just love to dance for fun. I started at 420 pounds and now I am 244 pounds. I've lost almost 200 pounds by almost dancing. I did some Zumba; which helped me a lot with my energy. I am now doing some Belly Dancing; which helps my lower back become a little bit…

I already started my walking challenge in the beginning of 2014. So, count me in! Just did 30 minutes of walking/jogging just now, and it feels great to be living with energy and motivation within again.

I am always looking for more friends to add. I'm just starting out on my Weight Loss Journey last year. It's been a long road ahead so far. Feel free to add me!

I heard about your story and it is really moving. I was on the same situation you are in now. I had high blood pressure, obstructive sleep apnea, obesity, I even almost had Type 2 Diabetes, but I was pre diabetic. I could barely move my knees and I was morbidly obese throughout my college years. I knew I had to get the…

Hey Kelly! That is a wonderful story. I had the Gastric Sleeve almost eight months ago in June 3, 2013. So, I am almost eight months post op from my surgery. Before my surgery, I have lost about 65 pounds to get my liver to shrink in order to get the surgery. After my surgery, I have lost over 100 pounds in almost eight…

Hi there! I was almost the same weight as you at the time. I was almost over 500 pounds myself, but I had to change my lifestyle and my eating habits as well.

Hi There! Just keep believing in yourself and you'll get to your goal weight. I used to not believe in my goals before. Before, I was almost up to 500 pounds and I could not breath properly, walk normally, and even sit in the biggest chair. I had sleep apnea, almost had diabetes, and the like. My doctor told me that I…

I am Single woman and I am proud to be single!!!

I often weigh myself every Monday morning. It lets me know if I have to push myself harder or easier depending on my weight loss.

Don't give up on yourself! I know you can do it. I thought I could not lose weight for a long time. I just had surgery on my stomach to decrease my hunger, because I was almost to 500 pounds. I had the Gastric Sleeve Surgery three months ago in June. But I never gave up and I had a little inspiration to lift my strength…
