I have to supplement with protein shakes to meet my protein requirements....I have not gained weight! There are some out there that are really high in calories. I opt for low carb and as little sugar as possible! I use a premixed one for EAS for when I am on the go or at work. When at home I have a powder from Vitality…

I am 40 months post-op! I had Gastric By-Pass. I decided to do this because I wanted to live, and not just sit back and watch others enjoy life. I didn't have to take any classes. I only had to lose 10% of my starting weight prior to surgery, while under the surgeons care. I did have to have a mental evaluation, and talk…

Trust me if I had a choice.......I'd love to feel like I was all that and a bag of chips! But I don't I am insecure, scared and unsure of my body and my confidence. You lose a 150 lbs, it really throws your world off balance....physically and emotionally!!! When ever I purchase a new dress or clothing I am not sure of, or…

Tomorrow is my THREE year anniversary!!!!! I am at 105 lbs!!!!!!

I was also told by my docs to avoid high impact and running......so I use my elliptical, recumbent bike, gazelle, stair stepper. There really is a lot you can do as far as cardio, and have it not be high impact!

Heck yeah.....it takes some mouth skills to play a flute!!

I use the military formula for my fat %. It goes by actual body measurements not just height and weight! According to that scale I am at 12.10% body fat. But I have a lot of loose skin, so it is really hard to determine what is what. All I know is weight and height don't mean squat for BMI. It does not take into account…

Loose skin....simply put, "it is what it is" I have to have cosmetic surgery to remove my loose skin from my abdomen. I exercise faithfully every day. I have for over two years.

wow......welcome to my world! My hubby totally ignores me! Wants nothing to do with sex. Umm...really makes me feel insecure about me now. But he was this way before my weight loss. It is really hard because I do get attention from men, and they are like " your hubby must be all over you" and so fourth! when really he just…

You know exactly where I am coming from!!!!!......Scary!!!!!!

I lost a lot of weight....I have loose skin, I am ashamed of my current body. I am repulsed looking at it myself, let a lone expecting someone else to look at it, and think wow, you are really sexy! I am not the same woman, I was at 252 lbs. I have a new attitude, new hopes, new dreams!

I gave them to people who also lost weight when I could. I also donated a lot to charity. In the early months of weight loss I bought a lot of clothes at thrift stores, just because there was no sense in spending a lot of money when I knew in another 4-6 weeks my current clothes would be way to big. I still shop at thrift…

First thing in the morning. I get up earlier than everyone and have some quality me time. I find I am more energetic through my day. If I wait til after work, something always comes up. I work 6 days a week 60 plus hours. At first it was difficult getting up earlier, just to work out, now it is part of my life. You just…

Do you have access to video games? In my early days post surgical I had a few complications and couldn't do a lot of body movements. I resorted to my Wii, I played tennis, boxing and a few others all while sitting, I wore my HRM and you'd be surprised what kind of cardio you can get from a silly video game.
