Welcome sis! Congrats on your weight loss so far!!!

I am finally out of my stall and out of the 230's...I am too excited that the scale is finally moving!!!

You look amazing! ❤️

Today makes 2 months since I had RNY surgery (11/18/13) and I have not weighed myself in few weeks. Well not so good news, at my 1 month weigh-in I was down -16.6lbs and today I am down -20.6lbs total. That's only a 4lb lose in a month!!! Well I know that I hadn't exercised in the past month and I just started a few days ago. Frustrating but fixable!!! So the only thing to do is to keep on the path and focus on water, nutrition and exercise. At least the scale is moving in the right direction!!!

Glad you joined us sis! The journey is not easy but so worth it! Good Luck!

When did you have surgery? How much have you lost so far?

Any tips on how to speed up my weight loss? I need help!

Great job! When did you have surgery?

I hate eating too! How much weight have you lost?

Wow...you look great!

That's awesome! Can you post a current pic here?

My new mantra...

Wow...congrats! How long did it take you to lose the weight?

Where in IL are you located? How are you feeling?

You look fabulous! How long did it take to get to your doc goal?

I am a slow loser and it's frustrating me to no end. My doc says I should focus on 64oz of water per day and 60-90g of protein. Any tips on how to get all my water and protein in daily? I will be 8 weeks on Monday. :-(

So happy to meet other AA women who have had RNY! I have noticed there are more AA women who have had the sleeve done vs RNY. Can we all post our location and stats such as HW, SW, GW and CW? I will go first...

Hi my name is Heather and I had RNY on 11/18/13. I am looking to connect with other African American women who had RNY. Any takers?

Wow...congrats! I can't wait to be in Onderland! Sometimes I wish I had the sleeve vs. RNY because the dumping sucks but I am glad I had WLS. One day at a time...

A little dazed and confused about this new lifestyle but I am taking it one day at a time. When did you have surgery and how much have you lost so far?

I had RNY on 11/18/13 and I am losing slowly only down about 20lbs in 7 weeks. I need to start working out and I know I am not eating enough. I am getting myself together this week. HW: 270lbs SW: 252 CW: 232. :-(

I am only 7 weeks post-op RNY and I just started to exercise. Not sure where Lake in a The Hills is but we can try to connect in about 30 days and I should be ready to start weight lifting. Does that work?

Where are you located? I am in Lake Bluff, IL
