💙 BIG NEWS!!! 💙 Re-Introducing: Wlstories Bo 💙 BIG NEWS!!! 💙 Re-Introducing: Wlstories Book Club!! I’m THRILLED to announce the most requested item in the Wlstories community is officially back! We started this last year, but some issues beyond our control left it in a leadership vacuum. While this will be a group effort we need leaders in the community to step up and want to make a difference in the lives of others. With the recent Social distancing, and so many of us being alone, home and looking for supportive activities this was high on my list of getting going again!! I’m thrilled that @murray9480 was willing to step up. She’s never done this before but knows people NEED help, and as a community it’s support group it’s takes all of us to pitch in and help others, even if we don’t know them personally. I’m so proud of Angela for stepping out of her comfort zone here!!! We’re going to start slow, but you can expect group readings, recommendations, eventually build up to special events; give-a-ways, author Q n A, special contests that will include authors and publishers. Wlstories Book Club will be a place where people can come together through books to gain friendship, and support while on their weight loss journey! ...Or want to be on a journey! To join 👉 Facebook Search: “wlstories Book Club.” Or contact @murray9480 for more info! . . 🍎 Wanna be a community leader? Let me know what you have in mind and I would be thrilled to support you and your ideas!!!

WHERE IN THE WORLD ARE YOU??? Message from the edi WHERE IN THE WORLD ARE YOU??? Message from the editor; Keith aka @6months100pounds In the time of social distancing it’s important to remember the Internet can sometimes feel lonely. THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECT OF THIS COMMUNITY: We are all REAL humans behind these accounts. People with real feelings, real emotions, real struggles. We break down that digital barrier and realize face to face: WE ARE NOT ALONE.... not even in your own neighborhood! A few months ago we featured someone who lived a block away from me!!

Post your town, city, state etc and read comments to say hello to people in your area!! Tag me @6months100pounds if you're from Florida especially Tampa / Orlando area and I’ll send ya the Florida meetup info! Let's see how far our community stretches!!

The next few months will be HARD, we will be HARDE The next few months will be HARD, we will be HARDER. I wanted to have a conversation in comments about wlstories / collectively any ideas we have to help each other make this better AND stay on our journey. First of if you haven’t done so already please take this seriously. The science behind social distancing is not wrong, slowing this horrific virus down is absolute priority. Please don’t go out of you don’t NEED to. Lives are at stake. That being said these are STRESSFUL times, people are stress eating, gyms are closed, people are worried about providing for their families. People are in need and not just physical items. MANY PEOPLE ARE ALONE. Social distancing doesn’t mean you have to be alone!!! REPEAT THAT IN YOUR HEAD!! People in social media communities like wlstories can come together and be there for those who might need a ear to listen. BE A FRIEND, DM people, text people you haven’t spoken to in a while, make sure their ok, let them know you’re thinking about them!! I want to see if we could CROWDSOURCE some solutions to make this easier for people. It could be anything! Big or small. Help People with homework outs? Maybe our book club can help distract people? Maybe we can help friends even if we never met them physically with supplies? I got a couple extra bottles of hand sanitizer for example. I know there are dozens of things we can do to help each other. I’m I’m the kinda guy that doesn’t like to not try. This is a difficult time for all of us, our lives have been upended, plans changed, life is different, people are struggling. We can help...and grow stronger ourselves in the process. I would appreciate your help and LOOOVE to see people raise their hand and say I will try to help others. We were put on this earth to do more than just live, we were put on this earth to love. We are stronger together. Thank you for listening. ❤️-Keith @6months100pounds ————————————— 📺 YouTube: wlstoriestv ______________________________ #coronavirus #socialdistancing #socialdistance #socialdistancing2020 #youarenotalone #weightlosssuport #weightlosssupportcommunity #vsgcommunity #covid_19 #vsgcommunitysupport #wlscommunity #wls #ww #wwcommunity #wlstories
SPECIAL POST 👉 let me take a moment and tell yo SPECIAL POST 👉 let me take a moment and tell you about an absolutely amazing human being @lezettechristineMUA in January I had a little silly celebration of @wlstories8 2nd birthday. As a joke I put down everybody gets a free puppy or kitty. Because why not. I also put down if anybody actually goes out and adopts a pet from a shelter I will give them one hell of a feature. I love animals. They are proof we can love unconditionally and can teach us a lesson about love every day. WELL the next day I get a DM from Lezette with the image (swipe left) with her new forever friend!! HOLY COW THIS IS AMAZING!!! I meant to post this a while ago but I’ve been taking a break to rebuild a little bit but in the meantime I want to share the awesomeness that is 👇 Meet: @LezetteChristineMua, MAY 2017 I decided that I was tired of waiting to die. As a mom of 4 teens, it was time to change because they needed me. My journey began at 348lbs, on oxygen ♿ and could barely get out of bed. I was miserable inside out. I started eating healthier, then 12/11/17 I was sleeved. I choose bariatric surgery because I needed that assistance. I began charting what I ingested &taking photos of myself it wasn't easy but I'm grateful for 📸. WLSTORIES is a great group of encouraging people, who introduced me to likeminded friends and snacks from the generous sample donations from @popcorners @caulipower @yujgranola @choczero @eatmusclemac @joybol @nutsnmore @kodiakcakes @smartsweets @goultima I found choices, my #wlstories family, accountablity team. Every day I am blessed 2.5yrs later I'm ⬇️150lbs healthier and fighting JOIN US @WLSTORIES TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER!

WE CAN HAVE GOOD THINGS!! Hey wlstories family!! ( WE CAN HAVE GOOD THINGS!! Hey wlstories family!! (And I honesty do mean that you are all family to me!) I am so incredibly proud to announce a very special new addition to the wlstories community: CUSTOM GIPHY / GIFS available right meow on instagram and Snapchat!!! You can find them now by going to your IG Stories and just typing in “wlstories” however you’ll also find them on basically every major hashtag our community has! I truly think this will help us spread the word about our community and also have fun while separating us from the rest of the noise out there! I highly encourage you all to use them as much as possible!! All the cool kids are using them and you are a cool kid right 😉 ❤️ If you have any .giphy ideas LET ME KNOW!! —————————- As a lot of you might have figured out I’ve been spending the last couple of months posting A LOT less, if at all...but focusing on the back end of the community. I am trying to make things easier to manage while also creating more INTERESTING ORIGINAL CONTENT. I believe in original quality content I refuse to repost peoples photos with captions without any advance permission. I believe inspiration shouldn’t be an advertisement it should have a deeper meaning but we’ll talk about that later lol (If you ever read Moby Dick I’m basically chasing my white whale! ) During this time I encourage you all to stay active in the Facebook group and to show love to others as much as possible!!! If you would like to volunteer in anyway in the community please reach out!! -Keith @6months100pounds ____________________ #wlstories #weightlossmotivation #weightlosssupport #weightlosssupportgroup #vsgcommunity #wlscommunity #wwcommunity #lovethejourney #giphy #facetofacefriday #transformationtuesday

Special Happy Birthday feature to @julie_fit_chick Special Happy Birthday feature to @julie_fit_chick wlstories Ambassador and all around AMAZIN woman!! I’ve been around this community for 7 yrs; in that time I’ve see people change because of followers...Well I can tell you right now she’s the same amazing person she always was! Real, honest, kind and approachable. I’ve met Julie a few times (She came to the meetup!) and can tell you she’s even more amazing in person! She makes everyone feel like you’ve been best friends forever. She’s kind, compassionate, beautiful woman with a heart of gold. She wants to use every blessing she’s received on her journey for one thing only... inspire others to do the same. It’s her mission to change people’s lives and she’s going to be very good at it!! -Keith @6months100pounds Editor; Wlstories. ________________ Meet: @julie_fit_chick I gained rapidly when I was in high school due to severe depression & bad choices. I went from fit to obese in a year. I forgot how to love myself. In 2012 at 300+ lbs I changed my life. I started by taking baby steps. Ex: eating multiple small meals rather than binging on one or two big meals a day. I began to workout, starting with cardio (walking, stairs) and built on that. Changes to my lifestyle & diet helped kick start my weight loss & I lost 80 lbs naturally in the next two years (& kept it off). 2015, I had VSG at 230lbs. I’ve lost another 90 lbs that I work hard to maintain. ln 2017 I had plastic surgery to manage the loose skin, breast lift with implants & a tummy tuck at the same time. My experience was hard. I had a lot of pain from the tummy tuck & complications with the breast lift. The road to my success was not a straight path. I’ve had many ups & downs along the way, but everything was worth it. Starting tip: start with small steps and never forget to love YOU. #wlstories . . .

🥳 SPECIAL SURGAVERSARY POST FOR @vsg_kingtut_77 🥳 SPECIAL SURGAVERSARY POST FOR @vsg_kingtut_77 !! Over the years I’ve had the privilege of getting to know Michael in and outside of this community. He is a great example of everything that is good with the community. He is open, honest and raw about who he is and the journey he’s on. More importantly he’s supportive to others in the community. He’s active, he’s engaged and he cares. His advocacy is to make the journey better for the next person and that in my book is all we can ask of each other!! Cliff notes: He’s a good solid dude. So please take a moment and celebrate Michael‘s fifth anniversary of changing his life. Anniversary’s are a great time to remind us why we started and where we are going. -Keith His bio below: I have been battling obesity for the majority of my life until back in 2012 my father passed away due to complications with Diabetes. That was a wake up call for me to get serious about my health not only for my sake but for the sake of my wife and especially sons. I realized that had I not taken a step in the right direction I was in serious risk of orphaning my kids before I turned 40 and the mere thought of another man raising my sons scared me to death. I did a ton of research on the right option for me and ultimately decided to have the Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy in January of 2015. I have subsequently lost 129 pounds and have gone from 5XL scrubs to XL. My quality of life has never been better and I’m forever grateful for the second lease on life that I’ve been given! #wlstories ________________ #tampafitness #tampafitness #vsgcommunity #vsgtransformation #surgiversary #vsgjourney #vsgbeforeandafter #vsgsupport #wlscommunity #wlssupport #fat2fit #vsgsurgery #weightlossjourney #newyearresolution #healthydad #fitdad #dadlife #liftheavyshit #trainingmotivation #strongereveryday
CHANGE: Let’s talk about it. In honor of today’s celebration of the great Dr. King; I wanted to have a community conversation about change in us and around us. Change can be big or small. A change in your daily routine or a change in the fabric of our community. Don’t be afraid of either. I started wlstories because I wanted to see a change in the support community that was available when I started my journey. Seven years later, 500k people interact on the multiple platforms. Theres a lot of change I want to see in the world, a lot of wrongs that need to be righted but that all starts with an idea and a few people brave enough to do something about it. Change requires work. What would you like to work on in yourself, in our own community or in this world. IMPORTANT: Don’t underestimate what you can do simply by putting your mind to it. If you want change... YOU CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN! Every great ideas started with a simple thought in a human head. IMPORTANT: We are a support community. If you see something that you think it kinda awesome REPLY to that comment!! Start the conversation! Become a part of the plan to change it!! It won’t happen overnight but it will happen! Remind yourself and the entire community the power of support and unconditional love!! -Keith @6months100pounds p.s: this is NOT a political question. Wlstories will always be non-political. People in both red and blue states need help with weight-loss. _____________________________ What I want to change: I want to see more love in the world. More working together on a common goal. More coming together as a community and a family. This makes the defeats we face easier to overcome and makes the victories so much sweeter to enjoy. THANK YOU Dr. King for changing the world but also for showing us was possible if we put our mind to it. #wlstories ________________ #weightlosssupportcommunity #vsgcommunity #wlscommunity #mlk #mlkday #drking #bekindtoyourself #bekindalways #nevermissamonday #bethechange #changetheworld #weightlosssupport #wwsupport #wlsfamily #vsgfamily #naturalweightlossjourney #bodypositivemovement #weightlosscommunity #changeyourlife #changeyourmind #changeyourmindset #changeisgood
@wlstories8 Highlight LETS BE HONEST; more than ha @wlstories8 Highlight LETS BE HONEST; more than half of our community are just people who want to lose weight. They haven’t seen the change they want to see yet. ..and that’s OK! Our community DOES NOT celebrate change, it doesn’t celebrate success either!! WE CELEBRATE BEING ON THE JOURNEY!!! We celebrate each other!! You are ALREADY WINNING your story by being ON your journey!! No matter what the scale says!! No where is this more celebrated then @wlstories8 “The Ocho” Wlstories8 The “Ocho” is designed to return more creative control of your story, non scale victories or even expressions of your weight loss journey to YOU.This is YOUR story, express it anyway you like. What you want to submit is entirely up to YOU. So to all of you who are just watching us. Not being active, involved, commenting, showing love and getting unconditional love back...remember: 1. You are winning RIGHT NOW. 2. You are loved. 3. Wlstories community is a celebration of us all on the journey. 4. Remember to celebrate the little things on this journey!! . Today we celebrate @travelingketocat Before prioritizing my health, I could barely walk a mile without my knees flaring up from the extra weight on my body. Two years ago, I started by focusing on my unhealthy eating habits, eliminating tempting foods in my house & tracking my portions. I never thought those small steps & 5k runs would lead me to run an entire marathon at the happiest place on earth! I'm proud of this NSV because there were so many times during those 26 miles, my inner demons told me to just quit. But just like I've never quit on my health journey, I focused on the end result, taking it one step at a time. Those small steps all lead to me completing my 1st marathon!! I'm so proud of myself for not giving up, starting with smaller habits, & seeking support along the way! 👉 @travelingketocat #nsv #dreambelieveachieve #nonscalevictory #nonscalevictories #nonscalewin #lifelongjourney #rundisney #rundisney2020 #rundisneytraining #disneymarathon #disneymagic #runningmotivation #runningmotivation #wdwmarathon #wdwhalf #goofychallenge #dopeychallenge #wdw10k #wdw5k
Meet: @amandajean_rny Special HAPPY BIRTHDAY shout Meet: @amandajean_rny Special HAPPY BIRTHDAY shout-out to this amazing woman!! Only a year ago she was brand new to the community. In that time she’s become an a active leader, spreading the love unconditionally to others. She leaves positive comments on EVERY post, and I’m proud to call her a wlstories ambassador. She’s a shining example of everything that’s RIGHT about this community. People helping people, supporting each other on this journey unconditionally. Thank you Amanda for everything that you do!!! -Keith Editor; wlstories @6months100pounds Her story 👇 ————— Meet: @amandajean_rny I am not perfect - perfect is unattainable. I struggled for years with my weight. The number on the scale owned me, it controlled me. I decided in January 2017 to take charge of my life. I have three amazing children that I want walk through life with and not just merely existing!! They deserve more than that and so do I!! I lost a total of 165lbs. I have recently regained a fraction of that back but THATS OKAY!!! The old me would have self sabotaged and continued to let the scale climb! The new me, the “healthy mind” me knows that it’s normal - it’s life. This is a life long battle that I will always win. Starting tip: my favourite one...get your mind right and everything else will follow. ________________ How has the Wlstories community influenced your journey? Answer: Wlstories has been the most reliable support system I have ever been a part of. When I scrolling through my feed and I see the positive, supportive posts from @wlstories it keeps me focused and determined. It shows me I am NOT alone!! ________________ WANT THIS SHIRT? 👇 Check out 👉 @wlshirts NSV PAGE 👉 @wlstories8 Editor 👉 @6months100pounds ________________ #vsgcommunity #vsgjourney #weightlosstransformation #bodypositivemovement #vsgsupport #wlscommunity #wlsjourney #myweightlossjourney #torontofitness #nevermissamonday
EVERYONE DESERVES TO BE PROUD!! These posts give e EVERYONE DESERVES TO BE PROUD!! These posts give everyone a chance to get MORE involved and for others to see there are a ton of other people in this community who are going through the same things they are!! Plus I got way too much to do for the meetup to take the time for a feature. So... TONIGHT: Let’s do a let’s do a brag wall!! Take a moment and let the community know something you're proud of. It could be anything! (Ideally health / fitness but can be personal / professional! Really whatever you want! There's nothing wrong with bragging. In fact I think it's important; it reminds you that no matter how bad YOU THINK things are going there's always something to be proud of. IMPORTANT: People are often their own worse critics so here's a chance to remind yourself how awesome you are and what you can accomplish!!! Be proud of who you are!! IMPORTANT: we are a support community. If you see something that you think it kinda awesome REPLY to that comment!! Show each other they should be proud of their achievements!! Remind yourself and the entire community the power of support and unconditional love!! -Keith @6months100pounds _____________________________ I'm proud of a lot of things; losing 170lbs is nice but building this community and watching it grow exponentially powered by the people.... seeing the kindness / love and welcoming the community showers on strangers makes me proud to play a small part of this phenomenon. I’m proud of the work this past weekend with some AMAZIN people and Wlstories is going to that next level too!! #wlstories ________________ #weightlosssupport #beproud #beproudofyou #beproudofwhoyouare #beproudofyourself #proudtobe #vsgsupport #weightlossjouney #fedup #proud #tampafitness #orlandofitness #behappy #bemorehuman #showkindness #loveeveryone #loveeveryday #powerofpositivity #poweroflove #everybodyisbeatiful #pcosweightloss #wlscommunity #wlstories #vsgcommunity
Today is @6months100pounds creator of wlstories 7t Today is @6months100pounds creator of wlstories 7th #fitaversary (2020 Gatsby style 😉) 170 Pounds lost in this pic but something more important gained... self belief. The Fitaversary thing is unique to the community. The outside world likely doesn’t understand its significance. It’s soooo easy to get lost in this journey. A fitaversary allows us to remember our why, renew our journey and sometimes more importantly realign it. I kinda feel weird talking about myself... I always do. But I wanted to take the opportunity to talk about new chances. Every moment is a new chance. YOU CAN START TODAY. EVERY SINGLE DAY can be the day that you come and celebrate in a few years as the day you changed your life around. You made a difference even small changes today can mean a LIFE CHANGING difference 7 years from now. Change is a cycle that's needed to adapt and grow. So how can you change today? This week? This month? In your diet? In your workouts / exercise? In helping others do the same? Even in love. If you’re waiting for a new year, new week, new whatever I want you to know every moment is your new chance. _______ If your curious to read more about me I’ll be posting a more detailed write up on my personal page 👉 @6months100pounds ......Either way THANK YOU for being a part of this amazing support community!! @wlstories keeps me accountable to my own journey and I literally ow you all my life!! -Keith ________________ #wlstories #weightlosssupport #weightlosstransformation #weightlossgoals #menshealth #transformationtuesday #obesetobeast #fedupfam #vsgsupport #wlscommunity #wwsupport #liftheavythings #gatsbystyle #greatgatsby #facetoface #fat2fit #nevermissamonday #strongertogether
I @6months100pounds started my journey in a Januar I @6months100pounds started my journey in a January. It had nothing to do with a New Years resolution but I was one of the tens of thousands who get a membership after New Years and say to themselves ENOUGH IS ENOUGH I will become a new me. There is something pushing these people, it's likely painful. Embrace them. SHOW THEM LOVE and KINDNESS. BE A FREAKING WLSTORIES AMBASSADOR!!! Shine so freaking bright you make people THANK GOD for putting out in their lives!!! The majority of these people won't be seen after feb 14th we can save them all. But we can MAKE A DIFFERENCE a help a few more people make it past feb by showing these people THEY BELONG. After you climb over a wall it is your duty as decent human beings and as members of the Wlstories community to reach down a hand and help someone up. Physically, mentally, spiritually: BE A FRIEND.

Special Christmas message from the creator of Wlst Special Christmas message from the creator of Wlstories; Keith @6months100pounds Merry Christmas everyone!!! Even those who don’t celebrate I hope your day is filled with happiness, joy and unconditional love! Christmas is a time of ideals. A time when we can all come together and celebrate friends, family and the Holy Spirit. It’s a time of warmth and comfort in every possible form and function. No Christmas is perfect, the only perfect part of Christmas is YOU. You are perfect in every way! The love you give to others unconditionally, you deserve to give to yourself!! Tonight as we sit down for Christmas dinner remember the following: ENJOY the lil moments in life. Embrace them. The goal of this journey is not a number on a scale but a smile on your face. Your value does not come from what your friends, family say or think about you. Hopefully they are supportive and love you...if not that’s ok too! They are humans just like you struggling to figure this whole deal of life out and sometimes miss the point. Sometimes they can even be toxic, jealous of what they see in you they wish they saw in themselves. Be proud of who YOU ARE. These people are JUST people, they hold ZERO power over you! You are beautiful and deserving of love!! Unconditionally. Finally always remember those less fortunate. Someone is at work right now who can’t afford to take time off.... Thank you to all emergency responders, THANK YOU to those who serve our country in the armed forces and their families who sacrifice every day. Remember; someone is praying for the things you have today. Gifts...food...shelter...friends...love....be humble. Give back, embrace others, embrace those serve others. May ALL be filled with peace, love, happiness and a hope for a better tomorrow for all. Thank you for being a part of the Wlstories community. You keep me accountable to my own journey. Merry Christmas! With love, -Keith @6months100pounds . . . #wlstories #weightlosssupportgroup #wlscommunity #vsgcommunity #supportgroup #newyearnewme #loveeachother #weightlossjourney #weightlosstransformation #livehealthy #behappy #merrychristmas #christmas

Meet: @sagapolutele_al , Heaviest - 485lbs, Total: Meet: @sagapolutele_al , Heaviest - 485lbs, Total: 240lbs lost. I was in a terrible place physically & mentally, drinking tons & eating horribly. Even after a heart attack in 2013, left me with 3 stents, I lost some weight but eventually fell back to old my ways. Ailments included knee/ankle pain, spinal stenosis, sleep apnea, & more – I didn’t get to 485lbs cause life was awesome - I was depressed & desperate for change. . July 2016, I was in the process of getting gastric bypass. I decided to try losing it naturally. CrossFit – it changed/saved my life. The CF community has been an excellent support system. Life has improved tremendously & I feel fantastic! Workouts are hard but what is HARDER is living as a 500lbs man. Life is too precious. Surround yourself with people who want to see you succeed. CrossFit works for me, find what works for you! Starting Tip: Set realistic goals - Start slow, be patient, & remain focused. Practice Good Nutrition & sleep well for recovery. Aloha! ________________ How has the Wlstories community influenced your journey? Answer: @wlstories has been instrumental for motivation, realizing many have made massive changes for better health, and do have impact on others. I'm glad to have found a support group which celebrates the ability to be a positive impact on others and myself, to keep pushing. There is definitely a better life to live other than feeling defeated and helpless. ________________ 📸 SUMBIR YOUR OWN @MYWLSTORIES !! Link in bio on that IG page for details. .
