Feeling wonderful and getting my hair chopped off and colored friday...it is thinning some but I'm just ready for a change because I'm a different person now!!!

Thanks kinsse....you're not to far off from my numbers...its not as easy as ppl think!!

Forgot to add that my size 10 wedding ring no longer fits...so...got a new size 8.5...yay!!! [ATTACH]38088[/ATTACH]

I'm down to 240.6...started at 322, surgery day was 303...surgery august 6th..had dr appt and labs done in halloween and have had to start taking Vitamin b, vitamin b12, Iron and thyroid meds...hoping the thyroid meds get my metabolism going as I've been pretty much stalled for about a month...yuck!!! But I do feel awesome...Will post a pic of hubby and I from last weekend...he has lost 65 lbs himself!! [ATTACH]38087[/ATTACH]

Recipe please!!!

I had Chinese buffet for lunch. Thank goodness my pouch handled it just fine as I was super hungry! Hadnt ate in two days as everything I ate or drank came right back up due to a bad uti, even water...feeling alot better now...on the brightside I weighed in at 245.4 lbs this morning!!! 60 more lbs and I'll weigh what my drivers license has been saying since I was 16!!! Lol

I would be happy at 175...I've never been a "skinny" girl...so I wouldn't even know how I would look that small!! Lol

I feel a little slow too misswifey...but I'm hoping my skin won't be so bad then...but my arms are already horrible...I need to hit some weights!!

I was 251.2 this morning!!! High weight was 322 and day of surgery 303...appointment tomorrow!!! Feeling awesome!!! Fitting in my size 18 jeans and taking some tshirts out of my 15 year old sons closet! Lovin it!!

I haven't had any problems with any meats as long as they aren't to dry and I chew chew chew.

I can eat like one or two pieces of sushi. I have thrown up once eating it. Wasn't dumping, just didn't sit well that time.

Lol...I will probably have a drink on halloween as well...

Me too crisg...I didn't really feel much...I was surprised...

I take a once a day bariatric chewable by procare...$10/mth.

I made a sugar free strawberry jello cake tonite. Used a sugar free cake mix and instead of eggs and oil used a can of diet 7up. Baked it and when done poked hiles and poured strawberry sugar free jello. Gonna top with lite cool whip. Delicious and I don't feel guilty for having a piece!!

Thanks guys...this is the lowest I have been since I was pregnant with my son...he is 15!!! I'm feeling wonderful!!!

This morning was 253!! That's 50 lbs down from surgery day August 6th, and 69 lbs down total since pre op liquid diet on july 22nd!!! Now for another 69!!!

I was thinking uti as well!! Possibly due to not drinking enough??

My dr didn't give me a certain number of pounds I should have lost...I think your right on track!

Kinsse I had a 3 1/2 week stall...the crazy thing was usually when I start my period I bloat and gain 7 to 8 lbs...but this last time I started I lost and its been about a week and a half and I've lost 12 lbs!

My surgery was the 6th of August also...started at 322...day of surgery 303 and today 258.6....feeling great!!!

Dessert tonite after dinner....breyers carb smart ice cream...chocolate...low cal, low carb and a little piece of heaven!!!

The ocean spray drink sounds good...where did you find it?
