Surgery date- July 29, 2013

Surgery Weight - 253

Current weight- 213

I have rheumatoid arthritis that has been flaring on and off for months so I have not been consistent w exercise, but I am still happy with the progress. I am only 5'1 so I have noticed the inches loss quicker than lbs. And I have at least 4 stalls of over a week or 2 each since August. The people's comments in this forum has helped me so much when I got frustrated about the scale not moving and celebrating NSV's.

Congrats!! U look awesome!!!

I am so happy to hear your stories - yes it does mess with your head. I am almost 4 weeks out and have lost and gained the same 3lbs for over a week. Thanks guys!!

Thank you me as we'll. my surgeon just came to check me and he told me that I had been bleeding internally and I had to have two blood infusions but he could not locate where I was bleeding. The hospital staff has been great and I being closely watched and feeling so much better.

Hi- i am scheduled for July 29 in Plano, Texas by Dr. Cribbins. I don't have a pre-op liquid diet - just low fat/no fat/no meat diet. I have been learning so much from reading the posts. Thanks for sharing!
