Just came back on this site after a long while - really looking at ideas to get back on track! I have a little renewed optimism tonight so will try to tighten up restriction and see how that goes. I definately know grazing got me in trouble and after surgery last year to fix a brain aneurysm I am struggling to get my life back! However, I am not ready to give up. I am glad I wandered on here again tonight!

I had surgery with Dr. Malik. His program is 4 weeks of liquids - Glucerna or Boost Diabetic - no food at all for 4 weeks. That is back in 2013.

Thanks so much for your encouraging words Amanda. Those are all questions that are good ones and that I will try to answer for myself. I appreciate your feedback.

Good article Amanda, I had my surgery July 2013. My honeymoon period was about a year. As soon as I hit a year - I had my gallbladder removed after months of pain and feeling nausea. I was anxious to get the weight coming off again. My weight hasn't moved for almost a year. I was running 3 x week but not even inches were coming off. This spring I had an emergency surgery for brain aneurysm and just recently started back to work. I haven't started running again and have gained 5 pounds. I am trying desperately to get back on track - I just have to keep remembering why I had the surgery in the first place. I am terrified that if I don't get back up and running real soon and if I gain anymore weight I will not stop gaining. I want to get to my goal weight - I still have about 40 pounds to go. I still have pretty good restriction and I am grateful that I had the surgery - I just don't want to waste the surgery to not get to goal.

192 today - thank you.

193 - sorry i'm a day late!

195 - going the wrong way - not sure if this weigh is accurate will find out next week.

191 today! Thank you

I too have been in stall for just about 1 year now. I have lost 75 pounds with 45 to go. I have tried everything I can think of. Frustrating to say the least. I am not willing to stop - I had surgery to be at a healthy weight and darn it I am going to do it!

Thanks Stephh! I am same this week 192

I was sleeved July 2, 2013. Unfortunately I have only lost from 263 - 192. I still have about 40 pounds to go but haven't given up yet! My goal is to be finished losing by the end of this year! You have done remarkably well - congratulations!!

My pre-op diet was 4 full weeks of no food and just drinking diabetic boost. So the total calories were suppose to be around 1000 calories. I was also allowed tea, Water. After not one morsel of food - I only lost 10 pounds in the month prior to surgery!

CW - 192 GW - 185 Thank you!

Still at 192 - next challenge the scale will move!!! Thanks for doing this.

192 for me this morning. Thank you.
