i am finding this journey a lonely and emotional one. im a single mom with a less than helpful Baby daddy. i did this for myself and my son, but honestly could use a pep talk every now and then. i want to be there for other people in the long run.

I would so love to be able to connect with you all. This gives me hope!! Sometimes we girlies just need other like minded "sisters" to help motivate and keep up on track and keep pushing forward. Thanks so much!

I keep a blog on my weight loss journey ... http://justicesmom.blogspot.com/p/diary-of-fatty-my-journey.html

Please feel free to read and comment. I would also love if yall would message me and join me on Facebook or we can share email addresses privately so that we can keep in touch more often.

As far as the ladies that are in Houston, I really want to get together on a weekend or what not.. maybe at Memorial Park or something. I am doing the walk for Autism and also doing the walk for Diabetes. It would be awesome to see you come and walk with me for that!

Let me know if yall want to get together! Power in numbers!

Thanks prettygirlswag......how is your lap band experience going?

Hey Misha,

All is well, I didn't have to do the Pre-op diet, just liquids the day before... The day of surgery I was 260, as of last Tuesday I was down 8lbs, and today another 4... So that's 12lbs since Sept 20!! I'm excited, I get my first fill on the 15th, I have the 14cc AP Band

I started soft foods Saturday

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
