    Thanks for responding! I know what you mean. I didn't lose anything in October either. I just started to lose a couple pounds this month. I started to exercise more too. I am hoping that makes a difference. It's getting cold here so now I have to exercise inside. It's a challenge to do once you get home. Would you agree?

    Let me know when you hit 50 lbs. Looks like we are both 3 lbs. away from that goal. :)

    Best of luck!! Keep up the great job!

    I am finally down 47 lbs. I had a big stall for a month. I am hoping to reach my 1/2 way goal of 50 lbs. by next week. I want to hit it before Thanksgiving. I was hoping 60 lbs lost by Christmas. How are you doing? How much have you lost in 4 months? Please share your story with me. I get so frustrated that I haven't lost more then 47 lbs., yet I am proud of myself. Started a size 18/20 and now down to a size 12. Hope to hear back from others in my situation. Thanks!

    Good luck Kelly! My surgery is on the 15th. I just had my last class at the center I am going through. A couple things they told us to get is liquid Tylenol and if you can't find an adult dose then get children's Tylenol but ask you pharmacist what dose to take. Also get children's liquid Benadryl, Zyrtec or Claritin. And again check with pharmacist on adult dosage.

    Today was my last class at the center I am going through. Everyone that is having surgery on July 15 were in this class. I met a gal that had the sleeve surgery back in December. She said she went from 260 HW to 220 SW down to 186 LW. But now she is back up to 213. She said she is converting to the full bypass due to her sleeve healing incorrectly. She said the sleeve should be curved and hers healed like a 7. Gave her horrible acid issues. She said she eats a lot again. Makes me wonder if it's because of her deformed healing of the sleeve or is it that easy to stretch your stomach out to stop losing weight and gain it back.

    Today is day three on liquid diet... It's been rough but hanging in there. Good luck to everyone on our pre-op liquid diet over the 4th of July weekend!!! We can do it!

    What great responses. I somehow ended up with two threads for my question. It was my first post. I am getting some good advice. But I have to tell you what HaddocksEyes responded hit home. This was a great response:

    "The stupid thing about it was I was actually mad during those first few days. I was mad at me because me was telling me I couldn't have what I wanted to eat. How silly is that? But I will say it forced me, for the first time, to realize my relationship with food was not where it should be. I realized I was eating when bored or for pretty much any intense emotion because the food was no longer there to comfort me. It was interesting, to say the least."

    Thank you all!
