  1. I average 2-5 miles of exercise a day. Not sure if I'm gaining muscle and maybe that is Tigre reason why I'm slowing down on the weight loss and why on some days or weeks I gain weight? Any one else having issues with this??
  2. I'm moving real slow. I seem to gain 1 - 3 lbs then By my day anniversary of the month I manage to be down 3 lbs from the previous month. Very confusing and I can't seem to stop weighing almost every day! I'm walking, jogging and even some running, doing zumba and Yoga. I'm around 800 - 900 calories a day about twice a month I'm at 1100. Carbs I'm usually under 30 but some times I get up to 70. I get all my water in about 98% of the time as well as my protein. Having a harder time loosing weight. Having lots of cravings for the wrong foods and this scares me!! My 6 month check up came back great not low on any vitamins and still no diabetes or high blood pressure.
  3. I'm at a stall. I've only lost 1/2 a pound this last month. Since surgery date march 22 have lost 68 pounds. 29 pounds away from my goal weight.
  4. I think we all want to loose the weight as fast as possible. I'm 10 weeks post op and at times only loose a pound a week:-/ but I try to look at my total weight loss counting from my 2 week per op and that helps me to stay positive. I think we are scared to fail since we've failed before on other diets. It's very encouraging to hear from others who are 1 yr post op and share with us their fears when they too started this journey and are now a success. We will also achieve our goal with time.

  5. Yay!!! Happy for your weight loss. I'm 9 weeks post op and l feel like I'm loosing slow. When I look at my starting weight for pre op and where I'm at now...well then I realize its not so slow. I would've never lost that amount without WLS. I'm really upset that my cravings for sweets is back:( I'm struggling with that urge!! I just keep reminding myself that I did WLS for the out of control diabetes. WLS put my diabetes in remission and that I need to fight the urge for sweets!

  7. Hi everyone, I had my WLS on 03/22 and Find all the post so helpful! I'm still trying to figure out how to navigate thru the RNY talk. Hopefully I get it soon, so I can comment and ask questions. The best to all of us on this lifetime journey WLS 03/22/13 HW 276 PSW 237 CW 213.4
  8. Would not think twice about it! The day I left the hospital, my diabetes & blood pressure meds were no longer needed! Main reason why I had it done;))
  9. Good to know! I thought I was the only one!
