    Hi all I am just over 5 months out and down 87 from my highest. I have been at this weight for the past 3 weeks and am getting very frustrated. My birthday is this Saturday the 13th and I was hoping to be near my goal by now but it is not happening. I am getting very frustrated. They said it is normal to just switch things up so that is my plan. I will be adding strength training to my workouts to help build muscle witch they say speeds up the metabolism. I hope this works cause I have more to loose. Well hope everyone is having a great day.

    I always forget mine as well. I am trying to get better. My main issue is energy to get through my work outs. I get my labs checked in three weeks so I will get it together before then dont want any problems. They already thing I may be anemic becasue of my energy and I am always cold like always. I am very happy with my progress thus far and wish everyone luck.

    Be sure to update with the results as we probably have the same thing going on So I had my bloods drawn they think It is my Iron and B12 levels. I was taking B12 once a week now she said take 3xs a week. And I have been put on a daily Iron supplement. Also they think I am dehydrated but I drink plenty of liquids so I dont think that is right. But I will do as they say and see what happens.

    So I had my first stall this last week. I weigh in every Friday and the past 2 Fridays I have had no weight loss. I usually average about 2-3 lbs a week but this past week was nothing. I am down 64lbs since surgery and 74lbs from my highest. I was sleeved on 3/28/2014. I am very happy with my progress but looking forward to seeing 220 on the scale. Haven't seen that number on the scale since I was a sophomore in college. Hope this stall ends soon. Good luck all.

    So I am 3 months out and doing ok. My weight loss has been pretty good. My highest weight was 307 lbs and my surgery weight was 297 lbs I am now 233 lbs and very happy with my progress thus far. Does any one have any suggestions on how I can thicken my hair. I had my hair twisted up for the past couple months and just recently took them out and I have noticed some thinning in the front of my hair. My nutritionist said that it will get better after a year but I cannot wait a year for my hair to thicken up. I have started biotin just wondering if there is anything else I can do. I have naturally curly hair.

    I had my surgery on 3/28/2014 I am 65lbs down now. My surgery weight was 297 but my highest weight was 307. Everyone loses the weight at their own pace. You cant compare your self to others. It will drive you nuts. You are doing great just keep doing what you are doing.
