6 months update-start weight 274lbs.-current weight 179.2

As of this morning I have lost 94.8 lbs.  I was hoping for the big 100lb. loss at 6 months, but I am thankful for what I have reached.
I follow the 600-800 calories, I drink 64+ water a day and I exercise on a regular basis.  My protein intake is between 70-80 gr. a day and carbs are under 40.
I try to plan all meals and snacks, and to respect the fact that the sleeve really is a tool and not a cure all for obesity.  That each day I have to continue to do my part and that this is a lifestyle change, not a diet.
I feel better than I have in years and I am very thankful.
Wishing everyone a great weekend! :)

 Geat job! Congratulations! You are an inspiration to those of us in the early stages of our journey. Yes, the sleeve is only a tool and being compliant is a way of life -- it's not a diet. Keep up the good work.

Thank you!  Best wishes on your journey!

Way to go! Sounds like you are doing really well!

Thank you, so are you!

You are doing awesome! Congrats!

Thanks!  You are truly one of the most encouraging people on OH and I have always really appreciated your kindness! :)

Congrats!  You're doing awesome!

I personally dislike the "lose xxx weight by yyy date" goals.  They set us up for disappointment.  You'll get there, regardless of timing.  Keep rockin' it!

Thank you, I know.....I really try not to fixate on numbers, and to remember that this is really a journey, not a race. :)

Awesome! Way to go!
