Update Fab Feb Friends I had my 3 month check up on my 5 month due to many schedule issues with MD. Labs except for 1 are normal. MD not concerned with a low pre-albumin (indicator or protein def). Not to low but early detection is the key... He is happy with my 45 pound weight reduction (surg 2/6/13) and informed me that I will have a more difficult time after 6 month in losing wieght due to revision from band/band/bypass status. I was told I will have to be very conscience about eating more proteins and staying away from fruits, veggies and carbs for the last 38 pounds to get to goal because of the type of revision I had. On a better note my hubby and I were able attend a support seminar on this trip (i.e., we live 100 miles away from my surgery location). We really needed to hear the therapist that was giving this support meeting with regards to comparing ones self to other RNY's and/or Sleeves/band people. I think my husband and I learned quite a bit about the the head games that you can get caught up in throughout this process. The scale, the food, the body image, the mind games,etc.... Any who I am happy and feel GREAT have tons of energy Thanks for listening FAB FEB and supporting me Surgery: 2-6-13 HW 250 SW 232 CW 187 GW 150 (tummy tuck and bat wing repair here I come!)

Ok ladies in was feeling sorry for myself because Ive been stalling after 40lbs loss surgery in feb. I go for 1-3 weeks then I see 1or 2 pounds come off. Im Wondering if that's why my surgeon is so strict with no fruits and veggies until 75% weight loss has occured?! All I can say is hang in there the body is a miraculous thing. Good for what you have lost:-)

4 months as of today. My anniversary was 1 month ater2 surgery I took two bites of salmon off my hubs plate and 1 bite of dessert and I was happy and fine. He understands and lets me pick off his plate. Besides he knows I want to go out to get out too.

Was my bday (54) last night hubby took me out to celebrate. Had two bites appitizer grilled mozzerella w/chopped tomato. Entree of baby spinach salad with pan seared salmon bits and chunks of fresh mozzarella slowly ate only 4oz. Two bites of Tiramisu! I'm happy 42 pound gone 41 to go! [ATTACH]3764[/ATTACH]
