Why so slow???
Hello Connie I have lost only 26 pounds so far and I am 3 months post op as of today. I have been in a major stall for quite some time. I know it seems like you will not reach your goal weight but it will happen. I dont eat any more than 350 calories a day. Not by choice I just cant stomach much food. You will be fine.

One year post op PICS
I said I was sorry. If you have spent time reading in these forums you have seen how people interact and say things that others do not like or get offended by. I said something wrong, but I have as much a right to be in this forum as anyone. I make a valuable contribution just like everyone else. That being said, I am not perfect and should not have said what I said.

Craving pizza
I was able to eat pizza. I was able to eat just half of it but it tasted wonderful. It was olive, mushroom and cheese. There is nothing wrong with a slice of pizza now and then.
