I will change it

I think we should push each other to lose that last bit of weight! ! We can do it! Lets go!!

Hey everyone!!
How's it been? I've been feeling great, I lost a lot of weight but I've been in a long stall now. I know it's because of my eating choices. First I feel like I can eat much more than before, second I'm snacking a lot... The snack is always fruit but I'll eat some type of fruit 3-4 times a day. I'm becoming more drawn to foods I shouldn't have. Help!!!!!

I'm so glad to see that everyone is doing so well:) it makes me happy to see everyone else's success as well:) I know it's soon to post another progress side by side but I was going through old pictures and found one of me from November of last year and I can't believe the change!!!! I am currently at 208 and I was 264-265 in the left picture

Well my doctor thinks it can possibly be an ulcer which I'm hoping it's not nor my gallbladder. In hoping it was a one time thing and that's it

Sounds like everyone is doing well. I too am 3 months out and down 74 pounds. Currently at 201!! It's been about 20 years since I've been at this weight. I'm having gall bladder issues and dr wants to take it out I'm just anxious about having surgery again so soon. I'm having little pain so I go back in September to see how I'm doing and schedule surgery.

I meant to post this yesterday but was so busy running around

Good morning! How is everyone feeling? How are all of you doing so far with your loss? I have hit my 50lb loss!! I started on my pre op diet at 264 lbs on 4/13, had my surgery on 4/23 and I am down exactly 50!! So excited

I couldn't be happier with my new me:)

On my way to my 1st post Op. Hopefully everything is ok. That easy I can move on to stage two pureed foods. So tired of the sweet stuff and I can't stand broth. Wish me luck.

I've been walking and yes it seems to be working. Hopeful that I get to leave today. Do alot more walking this weekend at home.

In my experience, the best option was actually the hardest. Walking.
The gas built up in your tummy was placed there by the surgery. The movement involved in walking and generally being mobile will help to "push out" the gas buildup...
