I get pain in my back and feel like I have to hiccup. So cool how our body figures out a new way to tell us to STOP!

I have noticed on occasion if I don't measure and just eat a hiccup means I am full...

Here are my before and after pics....one year today. Dr says I lost 102% of excess body weight. I weighed in at 157 lbs today down from 285 a year ago.
I would like to that every one on the forum who have been supportive in helping me to achieve my weight loss goals. The road has been rough but I am extremely happy for the struggle!

I won't complain

No photoshopping either!!! Ha!!

Its been almost 5 months now. Its amazing how much I have changed. Compliments are pouring in. My self esteem is up, I feel more confident, and most of all I got my sexy back. The reason behind my decision to have this surgery was primarily my health. But ive gain more than i expected. From 375 I have lost 95lbs in such a short time. I wore a size 30, i am now my way to a size 16. Its been over 12 years since i could wear a size 16. My husband is proud of me, my children loves the new me. I'm happy!

Good Day fellow members.
I'm from Windsor, Canada. I started my journey at 350lbs. I am almost 4 years post-op and RNY has been the best decision of my life.

I plan on never going back. Ive maintained my weight for 2+ years ( w/ weekly excercise of course). Its so much easier to excercise at 170lbs than it is at 330lbs! Best of luck to everyone

188 lbs today. Down from 285 lbs. I'm 8 months out. Only 28 lbs to go to get to my goal of 160 lbs. I had plateaued for about 3 weeks so I was very happy today to see movement from the scale....

600 calories a day is just fine and anything that helps you get ALL of you daily Protein in is a good thing. As others have mentioned, your pouch has stretch sensors which signal the brain when you're full. They are less effective immediately following surgery during the healing process. So don't be surprised if before long you start feeling full after eating less. Just keep your eye on getting all of that protein in every day. Stay focused on following the protocol, stay active and stay away from the scales. You're gonna love the new you!!
