Milestone

[Jenn L]

So...I hit a milestone today. I’ve officially lost 150 pounds.

I started this journey in April 2019 at a weight of 541. ( I know some of you may gasp at that number...but that’s where I was.)

I lost 91 pounds prior to my 2/14/2020 gastric bypass. If you did the math, you know I’ve lost 59 pounds since surgery and am at 391 now. I realize I’m still heavier than most are before they even start their journey. With that said, I’m proud of myself for all the changes I’ve implemented.

It’s working. I just have to stay on the path. I know I’ve got this!!!

I’d like to thank everyone here for your support. This group has a significant role in my weightloss process.

Take Care

WOW!!! That's great! You are on the right track and I am sure you will continue to have great success! Don't fret about occasional weight gains. Your body will find a way to reduce the calories needed (if it thinks you are starving). When you hit a plateau, change your exercise routine and "confuse" your body. Focus on the other non-scale victories. You are winning the battle.

You’re amazing!! Your successes are totally worth celebrating no matter where you start! You should be super proud of yourself for all your hard work and dedication

So amazing! You are an inspiration for the journey you are making and keeping at it a year later. I just had my surgery 6/15 and a friend gave me a water bottle with the following short saying...I'm going to take it to heart and I hope it speaks to you too! "Beautiful girl, you can do hard things"
