I am three months out and my "drive" is better than ever!!! My husband loves my sleeve as much as I do!!

That is awesome!! Congratulations! I completely understand, I have been at 203 for over a week now and it's driving me CRAZY!!! I just keep doing what I'm supposed to be doing and know that the scale WILL move, even if it takes a little while!! CONGRATS ON BREAKING YOUR STALL!!!

Saying a prayer for you!! Hope you get good news, keep us posted!

I am 3 and a half pounds from onderland AND I CAN'T WAIT TO GET THERE!!!!

You look amazing!!!!!! Congratulations!!!

I agree, call the doc. Probably UTI from the catheter.

What protein powder do you use? I have yet to find one I can even tolerate

Oh no!! Definitely praying for you! Hope you get relief fast!

Hilarious! I now have bones I didn't remember having before surgery too!!

My new short-term goal is to lose 23 more pounds by July 26th. There is a little bit of a story as to why I chose such a random date. Last year, on July 26th, I was at my highest weight ever. There was a blackout in the town I live in. I had no candles and no flashlight. I got a call from a life long friend and the next thing I know he showed up at my door with candles AND a flashlight. He stayed at the house talking with me and my daughters until after midnight when the lights finally came back on. Three weeks and 3 days later, we were married! So, if I can lose 23 more pounds by July 26th, I will have lost a total of 100 pounds since that wonderful, blessed night. Wish me luck!!!

Hey, Sleeve-Twin!! I don't have any different advice from what everyone else has already said. I am a slow loser too. I have only lost 34 pounds since the surgery. I too lose great for a week or two weeks, then lose nothing for a week or two weeks (or three...). I have noticed that I stop losing weight if I let myself stay constipated for very long. Then when I finally get everything moving again, I'll start losing again. I don't know the answers. But I don't let myself get crazy over it. Keep me updated on your progress. And don't let it stress you out too much because the stress can make your body hold onto the weight too. Good luck!!!

When you are awake, get up and walk around for at least 5 minutes about every hour. If you are asleep, REST and don't worry about it!!!

I mix a little pace picante sauce in it and dip pretty much any kind of meat or chicken in it. I use it on my tacos too.

Congrats on your weight loss! So good to hear from you, been wondering about you!!

Thanks everyone!! Amanda, my husband is the most amazing, supportive man on the planet! I am truly blessed to have him by my side through this entire journey!

Hooray!!!!

Congrats!!!! That is awesome!!

Everyone in my family and everyone I work with has been on me about my clothes being too baggy. So for date night last night, my husband took me shopping for some new pants. I bought three pairs of size 16 jeans and capris!!!!! This is the first time in 13 years that I have not had to buy my clothes in the plus size section!!! What an amazing feeling! I always hated buying clothes for myself before nut I can tell already that I am gonna be a shopping FREAK!!!! lol!

I am 8 weeks out, and the only time I felt like that I actually had a stomach virus. I threw up what little I had in my stomach and could not eat for two whole days. Could you have a virus??

1. Crossing my legs 2. Enjoying taking pictures of myself with my family 3. SEX WITH MY HUBBY JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER

Thanks everyone!! Ya'll make me feel so much better, I was feeling kinda discouraged. I'm a slow loser, only 27 pounds since surgery on April 11th.

Congrats!!! I just posted my first pics too, and it is very exciting!!!
