hope all goes well for you. I'm sure it will! Keep us posted...

5 lbs a week is good...

yea, what she said...

forgive yourself and go on, the cravings will decrease eventually...

I'm 3 months out and it's pretty bad... Had plenty to spare at first, not so much now...

It'll work...

My husband and I have ALOT more hootchie koo, lovin', wild thing, whatever you wanna call it. Sex, i'm talking about alot more sex! LOL!

Pre-op weight: 186lbs current wt.: 143lbs christmas goal: 138lbs

I read that the caffeine restricts blood flow to the stomache, thus can delay healing... I drank coffee from the get go and didn't have any issues; ( hadn't read this at that time), and then there's also the dehydration issue.

Good for you! That's awesome!

I started this journey at 186 lbs (near the heaviest I had ever been), and have a small frame, so my ultimate goal is 125-130. I'm at 145 now and if I didn't lost anymore I would be happy, but i'll be happier if I lost the 15-20lbs more... I think wherever you FEEL the best is what a person's goal should be. And above all HEALTHY...Hope to get into size 5 jeans...wear 9 now...

I reached my goal set for Thanksgiving! 145lbs!

Miralax does great for me, one capful daily in 4oz water...

Have 1lb to go to meet my Thanksgiving day challenge! My stall broke the past 2 weeks...

I'm also taking in protein shakes (forgot to list), so probably getting atleast 60/70g. protein/day, and lots of water... Take a protein shake for brkfst. and another at bedtime to keep me from getting up and eating in the night. I sometimes have a shake for lunch/supper if on the run, and at work...

My goal is 125-130... 130 will be good, 125 will be better! Thanks alot...

I had surgery aug 28th in Tj Mexico and was perfectly safe. I was with an associate at all times and the doors to the facility were locked at all times. I felt safe. I had a great experience, the care was great... You'll be so glad you did this. I had a LOT of people say they wouldnt go to Mx. for this but i would recommend it to anyone...

Many of us have, it is fluid weight from the iv's at the hospital.

My goal is 125-130 I have a closet full of cute clothes that will fit me at this weight, and I felt great at this weight 5 years ago...
