    Hope everyone is doing well as I am still awaiting a biopsy of my liver... Scared as Ever... But as for me I'm at 220lbs my surgery day way 8-6-2013 and on that day I weighed 302 my highest weight ever was 346lbs!! I have lost a total of 126lbs!! Wow I'm still in shock! Nearly 130lbs down. That's 82lbs in less that 6months.my clothes were a tight 24 and tops were 3X now I'm in a 14/16 and in a L/XL shirt! I'm alright with my loss have been maintaining weight and these stalls are getting crazy! My goal over all is to get down to 170lbs by 8-6-2014!! That's 50lbs more to go! :-) hope I can get it there or do even better. As for my health I'm great except the liver issue that is going on. PRAYING TO GOD ITS JUST FATTY TISSUE!! Hope it's not cancer but can go either way... Prayers appreciated! Hope everyone else is doing better than I am!!

    Well I been going through a lot here... I had a ct at beginning of month and had to follow up with a MRI of my liver... Have liver lesions and now going to be getting a ct guided biopsy... Man I'm so scared here everyone... Didn't have issues before surgery this is all since surgery. Now if these come out benign I'm going to get a medical lawyer to see if this is caused because my surgeon injured my liver... Praying for the best but with my family medical history I'm so scared... Prayers needed everyone I'm too young for this I'm going to be 23 in May... Sooo scared...

Anyways here's my stats: HW: 336lbs SW 8/6/13: 302lbs CW: 246lbs I am feeling wonderful. I have a great support system an awesome man in my life and losing inches. Hoping I can lost at least 10lbs a month from here on out so I can be down to the 150s to 160s as my goal weight! I'm already seeing difference on my body. My back rolls are down to 1 instead of having 3 on each side of my back lol my thighs have gotten way smaller bit they are still frwaking huge lol and lost almost all my boobies!! I'm feeling really insecure about these :-/ my stomach has gotten smaller from a size 24/26 pants to an 18/20 and my shirts from a 2X/3X to a 1X/2X depending on the shirt... I am 10lbs shy of losing 100lbs in total and about 56lbs since surgery! I'm excited to lost about 100more lbs! Time effort and hard work will pay off!

    what do I do?

    what do I do?

    I'm 21 years young and been with my husband for 4 years. We've been married for 2years. My surgery is in April and I've been thinking alot about what I want. I feel like I settled down too soon because I have dropped everything for him. Which I'd never do for anyone but him I did. I love him dearly but I think this surgery will year us apart. Partly cause I will actually have confidence and I feel he doesn't want me to be happy with myself sometimes. How do you tell your spouse whom you do love dearly that you want to separate so you can find yourself. Because I really need to find myself I just feel that love isn't enough anymore. Am I wrong for feeling this way? Do I just write him a letter and leave while he is at work or do I sit down with him and break it this way? Do I wait til after my surgery to see if my feelings change? I'm so lost right now and really need advise. I love my husband but is that enough cause I am so young and having second thoughts about him being my future... I don't want to end up like my parents with 3 children and divorce because he cheats or I do not that I would and my mom didn't but just saying. I want to be happy, he makes me happy but I feel like i'm not happy the way I should be... What do I do? I'm scared to talk to him about these feelings so this is why I ask if I should leave while he's at work with a long letter... Please help!

    well you are doing amazing yourself and don't let the dr discourage you. I guess I got lucky my dr said that there is no specific weight I should be at, but I only see my dr every 3 months for labs for 2 yrs my dr said there are some people that don't lose anything then 3 months later lost 40+ lbs so don't be discouraged by what your doc says. I would take it with a grain of salt and keep doing what your doing!!

    i do have vitamins from bariatric advantage 3 months supply, the only problem with my vitamin supply is it's for a gastric bypass Paitient and I had the duodenal switch which I have to take just a little more vitamins than with the RNY and I have a nut but I haven't seen her since my surgery and I saw her only as a consult before surgery that was all... I have this 100% natural organic whey protein I got from the GNC store here it's supposed to be unflavored and that stuff let me tell you YUCK it makes stuff sweet :/ with a gross aftertaste :/ so anyways about my vitamins this is what I take Multivitamin - with A,D,E,K 2xs a day I believe Calcium citrate -3xs a day 500mgs so that's 1500mgs Iron- not sure of mg on this but it's 1 a day b12 sub lingual- 1000mcgs a day (1x a day) THESE ARE ALL BARIATRIC ADVANTAGE VITAMINS I GOT. On a paper I have I should be taking the multivitamin 3 or 4 times a day the calcium is supposed to be 2000mgs (4xs a day) B12 is good and iron is supposed to be 2xs a day but idk the mgs and everytime I bring it up to my surgeon office they act retarded...

    Just curious if anyone else is experiencing a lot of hair loss. I lost a lot of hair before surgery but OMG I'm losing by the handfuls and when I say handfuls I mean literally 2 -3 FULL handfuls in the shower and another 2-3 after when my hair is dry... is there anything I can do to help with the hair loss?

    Emotional break down status... Ahhh idk if it's because I talked to a friend who annoyed the shit out of me or if my sister gets on my nerves that much or what's got me in this mood but I am emotionally drained today... I feel like screaming and punching someone in the face at the same time I feel so down and dad that I feel like crying myself to sleep (and it's only 652pm here) ahhh idk if it's cause my period is right around the corner (unless prego cause the condom broke and I'm not on birth control) or what is going on... But all I know is I haven't been this emotional since I had my surgery other than the October 4 when I had my 10wk apt with my dr. And I started my period 2 days later..... Ahhhhhh is there anything I can do to not feel this way today feels like the world is on my shoulders and idk what to do!!!!!
