Dorian

It has been so quiet here lately! I am missing my support friends! Weighed 232 today which is down 71 from surgery on 4-22, and 108 total. Was stuck for awhile between the same 3 pounds and finally broke that! Was also very constipated and finally broke that too, so maybe thats why im down! Having my 6 month bloodwork done on Monday and am anxious to see where im at. Hope everyone is doing good! I miss you all.

Never had one so will have to google it to see what it is all about! Why do you have to have it? Whats going on?

Had injections in my back today. Hopefully will be the last!! Cant have another one before surgery in December and, fingers crossed, that the surgery will be a success. The nurses at the clinic all know me and one started coming I and then stopped, rechecked her chart and the room number. She then looked at me again and said "Dorian?" When I said yes she said, "oh my gosh! You look so different! I didnt recognize or think it was you!" Losing 105 lbs will do that! Good feeling!

We have lost the same; 105 lbs. I absolutely hate it when doctors say, "lose more weight and then come back". I had heard that so many times with my back issues! Well ive lost the weight and guess what?? My spine isnt gonna move back to where it is supposed to be!! Hope in your case it is weight related and nothing more is wrong? Dont wanna mess with body organs huh?!

My heart is breaking for you Alaina. You are dealing with so much at once and it is more than one person should have to deal with. Dont be a stranger; maybe we can somehow help you through all of this. Hang in there my friend. Sending love your way.

Looking great girl!!

Looking great girl!!

Im making it right now too!!!

Glad you are finding some peace. Will be thinking of you! Love and hugs!

As I said before, I am thinking of you and will praying for you come Monday! I am here for you in any way that I may be able to help. Be strong my friend! We are here for you and love you! ♥♥

Me either. Comes next month and im really excited to see where I am and how ive done!

I think the same thing at times! I even msgd kristy3k about it! I wanted to know how you know you are done losing. We are only 5 months out and the loss continues for around 18 months from what ive read. Not sure if this is accurate but it is what I read. We WILL stall and it can be for a month or more even. This is when we should change up our plan. Eat more protein, exercise more or do different routine and drink more h2o. I was at 235 this am which is 68 down from surgery on 4-22. I was hoping for 100 in 6 months at first but now am happy with whatever. I am trying to not get discouraged at my slow loss because I know I cant exercise like others. I just take what comes! I love that I can tell a difference in my clothes and I feel better. That is what matters. Keep your head up. You have done AWESOME!! You are no where near done yet!!
