I think we all wish we could've done it on our own. But sometimes God has other plans for us. Now we all have the chance to get and stay healthy for the rest of our lives. No more yoyos for any of us. Good luck.

Congrats on making the decision to change your life. You will not regret it. You will be able to have your much loved sweets eventually just not for awhile. Once you start losing weight for good, you will be much happier. I will never regret giving up food that was killing me. A little food goes goes a long way these days. I still eat a bite of a sweet treat now and again. No its not on my meal plan but I don't deny myself anything. I'm afraid of I do, I'll just say screw it and give up. Good luck on your journey.

That's awesome @@lorri716! I was having some internet issues was not able login in sooner. Hope you guys had a great thanksgiving???? i did really good ate most Protein (pork ribs without the bbq sauce).

Just had to tell you I hit 50# gone today! Onederland is only 11 pounds away.

I can not get myself to slow way down when I eat, therefore I'm constantly gassy and uncomfortable. Unfortunately I only remember to slow when when it too late!

Congrats!!!! You deserve to do the happy dance ????????????????

I go from my highest weight.

I'll admit I danced naked this morning! Yea that's a sight you didn't want to see lol. But I'm officially down 50# from my highest weight. I don't calculate from surgery as most people do. I'm going from my highest weight the week of my pre-op diet. I have a long way to go but I feel good and I'm happy with how things are going. Everyone tries to compare losses, I look at it this way. My body is going to do its thing in its own time. I have no set date to meet my goal weight as I didn't gain areal this weight over night and it's certainly not going to come off over night. Slow and steady wins the race!

I am 3 mos on the 1st and I'm down 36# from surgery but 50# total since my preop diet. So you are doing great. When have you ever lost 50 in 3 mos?? Not everyone loses at the same speed. Your body knows what it needs to do. Keep plugging along. And congrats on 50#!

Way to go YOU!
I'm another person who goes from highest weight. It really tells me how far I've come.

@@lorri716 Congratulations!!!!
I also count from my highest weight, which was what I was at the start of my WLS journey.

I'm 3 months and 50 lbs as well. I'm very pleased with the rate I've been losing.

I am a little over 3 months 61 down I feel like is slow also but I am happy since my skin is not suffering YET ...

My three month surgiversary was Nov 17. I have lost 57 lbs. I lost about 12 lbs in the two weeks pre-op. Now I am only losing about 12 lbs per month. I just told my doctor on Friday that I really need to step up my game and he said " no don't" and proceeded to tell me that I'm right where I am supposed to be. If I keep losing 3 lbs per week (and I fully intend on doing so) for the next 12 weeks then I will still be down 92 lbs at the six month mark. Celebrate your success. Focus on your success and it will breed more success. Keep up the good work!

I have always had a flat non existent butt.. my daughter says hey mom your getting a butt. Say what!!

Miralax will help with the bowel movements. I was eating too much cheese and taking an Iron pill which made bm's few and far between. I stopped the iron n backed off the cheese and took the miralax and I'm good to go now.

Just wanted to let you all know - it's been several weeks since this post and I'm now at 122 pounds gone since my highest. thanks for all your encouragement!

Congrats! Keep going and never look back.
