I was doing that at first I guess I should do it for a week and see If it just SEEMS like eating alot or of its actually OK.

I'm still losing slowly but losing. I'm 4 mo out and have lost 45 but I've been in a stall for about 3 weeks this time. Tonight I ate 1 really small peice of bread with seafood fondue on it, 3 or 4 small bites of my husbands Caesar salad. And 2 bacon wrapped shrimp (5 came on the appetizer) This was at resturant and I felt normal just ate less. Its still ALOT less than what I could eat before thats for sure! I just started exercising this sat week. I guess I'm just worried that I can eat too much!

Not true. ALOT of ppl w pcos get the sleeve so they CAN get pregnant.

Small steps exactly! Slow n steady wins the race . I used to wear 12 or 14 depends. Some of those I couldn't even wear bc ALOT of pants are made for small waist big bottom and I'm the opposite smaller bottom bigger waist.... An apple I hate it! Rather have a juicy butt!

I'm only 5'0" so pre op was xl or 1x shirt 12-14 pants and right now 4 months out I can wear Med. shirts and 8 pants. I still have about 25-30 to lose.

Thanks yall, yes its fast just seems slow right now arrghhh LOL I haven't really exercised at all til this past week so I fugured to gt this last bit off I will pretty much have to...want to be at goal for my 20 yr anniversary Aug 28th

Wanted to bump this topic and get some input on how everyone is doing! I'm needing the encouragement about now! Down 45... 25-30 to go to GOAL...this will be the hard part I'm sure

FEB 6 so almost 4 months

I have lost 45 so far, 25-30 more to go it's been REAL slow but fairly steady. I know I have come so far but I have been here before a few times in the past 17 yrs since I have been fighting my weight. This is the hard and scary part...I might actually get to what I WANT to weigh, what I've wanted to weigh for sooo many years, in the next few months. I just started really exercising this past week and I know it will get here...but right now at THIS moment it seems SOOOOO far away I guess I'm impatient and PMSing LOL

Haven't yet, maybe when I get to 50# lost which is 5 more pounds...then I will have 20-25 left to lose.

I just did the SAME! I bought the CUTEST pair of shorts for $20 at jcp, they go up but are quite far from buttoning YET ...I'm hoping in a few weeks they will FIT! LOL Of course in walmart shorts I can wear an 8 but these new ones are Jr's and they are a 9. As long as I can fit them by my 20 yr. anniversary Aug 28th I'll be happy!

WISH that would happen to me soon! I have been hovering around the same 3# for a couple of weeks boooo

Christus is 14200 and baptist hospital in Beaumont is 16500 my sister just called last week. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I'm 5'0" and was 205 now 160. Still top heavy also. My sister says we are built like line backers lol. I have not exercised consistently yet but I hope when I get to what I wanna weigh I'll be more proportioned there is a thread for shorties 5'2" and under of u search for it. I have lost all over but still bigger in arms and top than legs and butt. Sent from my iPhone using VST

Well I wanted to weigh 155 by today but I didn't start exercising consistently like I thought I would so I made it to 160. So 10 for this Memorial Day challenge. I'll take it. JUST signed up to do July 4 challenge. Gonna lose 10 more I hope! Sent from my iPhone using VST

The same 3-4 weeks. It felt like stomach spasm/cramps when I ate any thing and sometime when I would drink also. It ati does occasionally when I eat like HOT soup and I'm almost 4 mo out. Sent from my iPhone using VST

I only drink socially as well and maybe 4-6 times a year usually I agree w the other poster 1 stiff drink and I'm tipsy. I drank about 6 wk out just a tiny bit. Then about 2.5 mo out at a wedding. I was fine spaced out the small 6-8 oz cups I had about 1.5-2 hrs apart. Then about 2 wks ago i had 1 Shot of tequilla at a friends and i was loopy in 5 min but it only lasted anout 30 min No problems! Sent from my iPhone using VST
