  1. ive lost 180lbs in 9 months and i hit 2 plateaus so far. change up Water intake and excercise routine. each plateau i hit lasted about 2-3 weeks.
  2. im glad you got rid of the band... My surgein was the chief surgen in lowell ma and he wont even do the band anymore. if you do investigation on it it fails 60% of the time within 5 years and has to be removed!! Your stomach enzymes eat it!! Yuck! anyways i am happy for u! My sleep apnea is now gone. Yet ive lost 180lbs in 9 months. im about 20lbs from goal weight of 215. No more medications.. nothing! Time to live!
  3. My understanding is all pre op diets are different. My liquid only was for 2 days.. Thats it. I am 9 months out and down 180lbs,,, I had zero issues. Cant cheat now! Never every hungary and well I want to live!!!!!

  8. Just walk walk walk and walk some more. I was walking 2x per day at 1 hour each time. now i not do as much walking cause I'm in the gym doing a plan. I still do minimum 35 min cardio per day but now weights involved,
  9. They say, and i am 9 months out, that potato is very hard to get down.. I have had no potato so i cant say for sure. I would switch to maybe a yam or squash.
  10. that pressure means you may have eaten to fast .. it feels like it got stuck correct? last maybe an hour or so?? That is what it sounds like to me..
  11. Ill have to figure out a way to get one on here. Copy and paste one from facebook. When I go to work tonight ill figure it out. Thank u and I truly want to be here and help people
  12. No gall bladder problem. No loose skin because about 8 years ago I lost 160 on my own and had the full skin removal procedure. Then my dad passed 4 years ago and I regaind all weight plus some. I was so worried I would stdetch back out but when I lost the weight my stomach stayed flat as a board. A little excess skin under top part of arm but thats it. Very happy about that. Re Dizzy. Yes I lost so quick I got dizzy because blood pressurewas to low andi was still on blood pressure pills. Dr took me righ off all medicine and now im fine sleep apnea gone as well.

  14. I work 3rd shift. Typical day food. 2a turkey sandwich. 9a protein shake. Sleep 12p til 7p. 8p 2 poached eggs on english muffin. Or similiar. 1medium dd coffee. 60 to 80 ounces of water. Thats my menu. Like I said never hungary so no need to cheat have like 15 to 20lbs left to lose if that. Dr thought id stop at around 250 after a year. Took me 9 months to get to 235. So much faster than he or I thought. People are different and lose at different pace.
  15. Jerz gurl. I eat basically like atkins. 900 ish calories per day and workout a lot. Im never hungary and its that simple. Went from 52 inch waist to almost 34. 5x shirt to large shirt.
