  1. I have gain about 20lbs in a year. I think about it sucks that a lot of stuff get stuck. But I know if I didn't have this surgery I would be in 300lbs. The way I look at I happy I got I at lest lost something I was over 280 when j start this journey and at 217. I see my self happier now so it's worth it just sucks I got to my low 195 and I look at pic I was so much smaller there. Well I was 16 Almost a size 14 at a size 18 now. I have my days I go back in forth why did I do this but bottom line I lost weight and even not my goal it made a big difference in my life. Hang in there don't give up.

  3. I have been on here in a long time I got banged on September 2013 the first yr or so I was doing so good last summer I even got to a low of 195lbs some how I am back to 217. I been struggling eating for the last yr. I have good and bad days there days j can't keep anything down expect soup. And my good days I can eat a lot. Bread steak have been getting stuck I stay way from that. I don't think I am loosing weight because when I have my good days I over eat because from the day before all I had was soup. So if a back and forth battle now. I go from 215-219 back in forth from those to weight depending how many good and bad days I have. When I have my bad days seems like everything wants to come back up. No mater how hard I try to keep it down. Even on my good days sometimes get stuck and want to come back up. How is everyone else journey going.
