48 lbs since January is doing great, be patient. You'll have bouts of sluggishness, I did too (I started in November at 371), but get through them. Talk to your dietician about your current diet, and start getting physical... exercise by walking, or better yet, get into sessions with a trainer, and have them get you on an exercise regime. Those two things will dramatically help to increase your energy levels, and expedite weight loss. Keep the faith. P

Riding bikes with my 5 year old, and having her stop, run in the house, and tell mommy that she didn't want to ride anymore because daddy was wearing her out. P

My band doctor wants patients to wait 6 months after reaching goal weight before considering plastic surgery. That being said, I believe I will need skin removal from my abdomen, but am willing to wait through his timeline. Maybe I'll get lucky and not need it, but as it currently stands, I will.

Very nice NSV. Keep up the good work. P

Glad to hear your pain is clearing up. P

Funny, Put a heating pad on your tummy where the port is. It should help. Lay back in the bed propped up with a couple extra pillows. P
