Wow. OP, I get it. I am a Christian, and oftentimes will say praying for you. Though I appreciate prayers etc. I also must respect your preference.

Thank you. That's the only point I've been trying to make.

I believe most people are expressing 'an earnest hope or wish'.
On a humourous sarcastic note: If you are atheist stop appropriating the word 'hell', as you obviously don't believe in it....lol

You are making the assumption that people are offering to pray to a god or their god for you. Often times people say that they will pray for you meaning that they will be thinking positive thoughts and HOPING for a positive outcome.

Lol...I needed that laugh!

Well, I hadn't been on here in sometime. I had band to sleeve revision 9 Feb 2015 and, didn't lose much. However, I decided to have plastics anyway. And, I must say, I have never been happier. I had surgery 3 Dec 2015. It was completely pain free. It was uncomfortable but without pain. So, I tell people that everyone is truly different. I also had really good drugs, too. Though I an still quite swollen, I'm so impressed with the outcome. I will update next week. Wishing you ask well. I couldn't figure out how to rotate pictures.

Please add me. Brigette
Current 188. Goal 175.
After gaining or not losing for the past few months, I've adopted a vegan diet. And, I am proud to say, I am losing again. Yeah. Thanks for doing this. There really is a degree of accountability.

190.2. Ok, a few ounces more. Lol.

191.5. Better. Last week I was 194. Do, at least I lost a little woot. Thank you.

191.8. Well this time I blame self. Had a bad week.

Yes, not uncommon. And, it can depends on a number of factors. I have been stalled since April. However, I am losing inches. Could it be muscle gain? Are you rigid with your Doc rules? Are you getting sufficient Protein? How about Water? In some instances for no real rhyme or reason, weight loss will stall and, then, just as suddenly start moving again. Hope you see the scale moving soon.

188.4

Weight 189.3. Yes frustrated. I'm still gaining.

Thanks All, yes my clothes are fitting much better. I can actually wear size 8 and 10. I will post pictures when I get home. So, I'm definitely losing inches. So, usually I'm a bit more positive today's gain kind of pushed my off the ledge. Yes, I'm getting my Water in. I'm meeting with nutritionist in a couple of weeks. Thanks again all.

Sorry I'm late. Starting weight 187.7. My goal is 177.7.

Well, I have not lost as quickly. But, I have started running and can now run 4 miles three days a week and 2 miles the other days. Pound wise, 30 lbs. my surgery was 9 February 15. I have been stalled since 17 April. And, have actually, gained a couple of pounds. However, I am trying to be in encouraged. Great job everyone.

188.7, frustrated.
