  1. Fiddle just curious r u at your goal weight? My sw was 203, I h e bounced btwn 163-165 for the last four weeks ( lost 4 inches tho). I'm 5'7 and obviously need to change something. I'm going into my six months and just curious if you experiences anything like this and what you did? I'm trying to get to 147...
  2. Thanks guys. I do measure once a month. I have been in a month long stall but lost 4 1/2 inches. I'm just nervous because I was low bmi and am going into my six month so I wasn't sure if I should be doing something different. I am excersizing and watching my calories but wonder if I'm not watching fat and carbs etc. good enough, whereas points take those into consideration... Sigh lol
  3. Not that I want to go back to counting Points but I'm in a serious stall and I wonder if I'm missing something counting calories instead of points? Thanks.
  4. I was low bmi too. When was your surgery date?
  5. I went there too! I'm luckier over here I guess... Alberta hc reimbursed me a portion.
  6. I don't have the answer unfortunately cause I'm right there with you. I was stalled from Month four to five but did loose some inches? Hopefully this month the weight starts coming off again.
  7. Good luck faith! I had all three of my kid lets before so not much help there!
  8. I got 6 private msgs from a cynthia1111 today? Anyone else get this? Or are you real out there? I see you have no active posts??
  9. Holy s*#t you look great lol. I like seeing pics of a year out. Van I ask of you experiences many stalls? If so, what worked for you?
  10. Can I just say this plateau is killing me??? Four weeks of the exact same weight. I wanna believe I'm building muscle mass but its so frustrating! How is everyone else doing?
  11. That's unreal hey! So it's just a stitch on your external wound that is bothering you? Are they gonna fix it? Do you have bypass or plication?
  12. Which is "tougher"? Insanity or px90? Are both for an hour a day? What's the difference btwn the two?
  13. I think you should go to the dr. This doesn't sound right at all. Most experience uncomfortableness to mild pain. It sounds Like something else is wrong. How are you feeling today?
  14. If you go to emerge they have to treat you even if they just take it out. Then if they won't redo it get it done in Mexico. They are great there and here in ab you can get reimbursed for about 70% of the costs for put of country surgeries..
  15. I have the plication but have never heard of this revision. To my understanding your stomach is reduced to the same size... Was yours too big?
  16. My dh and I have been together for 15 yrs. this surgery aside, there were times that I ( and probably him) wanted out or thought, "what am I doing here?". Each time I gave it some time, reevaluated, and thought is this worth fighting for? People change and not alway at the same times. So I would give it some time, and each time it seems that we grew back together. For me it is worth it. For all the things that annoy me about him, I'm sure I annoy him just as much. But he is there for me and loves me fat or thin, and visa versa. So really take some time and make sure you are making the right decision for yourself. If I'd have followed through I would have missed out on some fantastic memories over the years. A quote from an old couple when asked how they stayed together for so long " we never fell out of love at the same time". Or, " the grass is greener where you water it". Love that one too;) anyway good luck with your decision, I hope it works out for you either way;)
