Awesome fluffyjewel. And Thanks NewSetOfCurves. I made the dicision to stay away from the sweets and instead of grabbing something sweet grab a pickle or a slice of turkey. The choice is mine and I need to make better ones definitely and choose better for myself so that my new clothes keep fitting me. I refuse to get bigger but make myself smaller. How are you with alcoholic beverages? I have a drink on Friday and 1 is always enough but that is really hard to say no to.

Would love some support. 2 year anniversary in May. I feel I haven't lost enough weight and feel kinda disappointed in my self. I eat too many sweets and can't resist them. Starting weight was 239 weight 180 now. Wish it was more. Stalled for almost a year now. I have friends that reached their goal weight within months and 1 of them can even eat a whole breakfast taco at 3 months, I couldn't do that for almost 1 and a half years. I wish I knew what to do.

I have to say I'm officially off my stall. I am doing under 30 carbs a day and more protein. This has helped tremendously! I started Monday and already down 3 lbs. I know also without WLS this would not be so easy. Hope by next week I will be under 180!!!!

Thank you! I'm going to research this.

Start weight is 239 Current weight 185 Surgery date May 13, 2013 I am down 54 lbs. Size 14 and I have been stuck here since February. Im so disappointed I don't know what to do anymore. On 1050 calories a day and I know I don't take all that in was under by 400 yesterday. I try to exercise just not everyday. Any advice?

Premier Protein Shakes from Costco or Sam's are good. Atkins shakes are good too especially the strawberry. I feel like if I don't have my protein shakes I don't get full. Surgery was March 13, 20013 and I still have them every day. [ATTACH]40910[/ATTACH]

Hello. I joined the challenge as well last week. I see a lot of people wanting to lose 20lbs by Valentine's day, is that possible? My surgery day was March 13, 2013 and I'm down 53 lbs. I have been stuck for a month. I would love to be down 20 by Vday. Help.

Start weight: 187.2 Goal weight: 184

I'm in too. I need the support.

I want to join the challenge. Since Thanksgiving is 10 days away: HW: 239 TW: 189 Goal: 186

Hi. I'm the same way. I burp all day! I eat I burp, I drink I burp. I don't know must be normal.

Hello everyone. I was sleeved May 13 starting weight 239 now 289. I'm stuck and have been for a month! what's going on? Don't feel like I eat anymore than when I started solids. So disappointing. I'm 5'1 in size 14-16 wish it was less

Hey I went through that too the "smell". I think its normal with the stomach and all the body goes through. It finally went away. I am 3 months today! Down 40 lbs.

I'm so impatient! But I feel good. I can tell it in my clothes, a new size! And I'm taking pictures of myself and posting them rather than hiding from them!

My hair is really falling out now. Thank God I have a lot of hair. Has anyone tried something that works for them to keep it from falling out so much. I'm still having 2 protein shakes a day just because I like them and all my vitamins.

Hi! I was sleeved May 13. SW:239 Today: 199 Its been slow, I feel it has been anyway. I stay at one weight for a week before I drop a pound.
