Well I'm 3 yrs and 6 months out and I take 40 mg Omeprazole twice a day. I just had a MRI done and I am going to be taking this for awhile. No matter what I do I have it. I wake up with it even if I just drink water. Have had it every since the surgery. The pills help but it can be a pain and does keep me up at night without the pills.

Well I am 3 yrs and 6 months out and I am taking 40 mg of Omeprazole twice a day. I just had a MRI done and I am going to taking it for awhile. No matter what I do I wake up with it. No matter what I do. I tried not eating after 6 and only drink water. Still woke up with it and when I was taking 1 pill a day it would wear off by 8pm. It would keep me up at night. But the pills twice a day make it tolerable.

I am a year and 7 months out and I have been struggling with getting to the goal. I have not given up but I have picked up bad habits again. I have been going through some stressful things and I found that when I am stressed out I turn to my security blanket of "potato chips". It has made me feel like I was feeling better as I ate the bag of crunchy goodness. I paid for that goodness by the scale not moving or going up in number. Well I got my head together and got focused. Well it happened and I am now 198.2 pounds and I am so excited. It made me feel so good that I joined the healthclub to really put in the work. I am still trying to figure out how to deal with the stress and not go to the chips. So I started at 323 and now 198.2, 48 pounds from my goal. I AM DANCING!!!!!!!!!!!

Well I dont know what affect it will have on you after the surgery. I know for me I have not smoked since the surgery for fear that it will make me want to eat more. I say try it and see how it makes you feel. If you find that you have eaten half the frig then dont do it again. LOL Otherwise enjoy yourself.

Thanks, that is my plan to go when I get off work and by the time I get home I can go to bed and leave the stress on the machines.

Thank you so much !!!!

I was very active in the beginning but life changes made me step back for a some time. So, it happens no reason to get scared.

Well it is now getting close to my big day. I will be 43 in 25 days and I am 10 pounds from onederland. That would be the best birthday gift ever!!! Even if I don't make it the best part is I have not been this weight and size since I was in my early 20's. I have had people look at my pics and say I look young now. So this is going to be a great birthday

Count me in

Well I did not meet my challenge goal but I am down to 209.6. Very happy about that. On to the next challenge.
