I'm down 93 lbs and currently in onederland! I really only want to lose another 15lbs or so. Weight loss is slower, but still coming off.

I can understand your comments in your original post about, if you can't eat right and exercise now what will be the difference. And I can see here in this post that you have lost weight in the past. What that tells me is that you will be successful with weight loss surgery. I was similar to you, I had lost weight in the past successully by myself but never keep it off. The hunger always came back. This time around, I had gastric bypass in October 2016 and I'm down 93 pounds. I'm currently 200 pounds, i've never been this close to onderland before without having to struggle and struggle and struggle and struggle just to maintain where I was. The surgery allows me to eat a small portion, be satisfied and carry-on with the rest of the day. I hardly ever exercise except just staying active with my son. Which is something that I love to be able to do now that I've lost weight. From this point on if I lose anymore weight it will all just be gravy. Because I'm so happy with life right now, more like ecstatic, that I will never go back.
Good luck to you and your journey. If you find a good surgeon with a good support team you will get there.

Honestly I thought this was going to be a crack against all the posts about stalls.

Seriously ppl. Stalls happen. It's part of any type of weight lose. [emoji35]

Sorry to hack your thread, just kinda sick of reading these. Vent over

So I've had many non surgery victories along the way but had to share this one... Forgot my bathing suit while meeting my hubby over at my parents house for a hot tub (they were out of town) and stopped in at Giant Tiger at 7:55 when they closed at 8. They had bathing suit tops and bottoms on sale for $7 each. Grabbed an XL bottom and a size 14/D top and got out of there before they closed.
Here is comes....they fit perfectly!
Never in my life have I bought a bathing suit in the regular sizes with out trying it on and it fits!!
Loving life
I've lost 92lbs and I'm 1 pound away from onederland

yes, the stall threads are getting old.
my nutritionist said my weight loss is going to look like a staircase, not a slide.
expect it, it's normal, it's required by your body - be patient.

One more pound to go...weighed in today at 200!

Seriously! What did they mean by working out. When I had my 3 month checkin they told me a couple times a week max! Guess every doctor is different.
Also, I agree with previous post..16lbs in a month is awesome. Besides, you really don't want it coming off too quickly. Your body needs time to adjust and so does your skin.
