I'm feeling down and disappointed in myself. I had a yardsale this weekend and maybe I wasn't being as food conscious as I should have been. I am back up to 221.4. Starting bootcamp tomorrow.

Today is a new day. Besides, yard sales are hard work. You probably worked off anything you ate. You've got this!!!!

Each week, I watch as my email fills up with the successes of the people of the page. I have yet to post because I have not had a successful week in almost 6 months.

I'm filled with jealousy and disappointment.

The last six months have been filled with complications, pain, asthma, vomitting and nausau and now, an additional surgery is scheduled. I am 11 months out and after dropping 100lbs in 6 months, I haven't lost a lb in 5 months.

I'm not giving up. I'm on a new medication to deal with the extreme acid reflux that leaves a horrible burning in my stomach and throat. Now, I have less urge to eat to soak up that nasty acid feeling. I've worked out a meal plan and

My goal for this week is to post that I've lost 2lbs on the 9/1 Super Saturday Weigh In.

Wish me luck. :-D

I am so sorry you have had so many problems, but wow 100 lbs in even 11 months is a HUGE accomplishment. I have no doubt you'll make the 2 lbs. I'm rooting for you!!!

I am so sad your going through this struggle right now, but I've noticed that you have lost 100 lbs. This is fantastic.

I hate it when I'm not feeling well.. What does your doc say about your acid reflux and what are they doing to help you? I am almost 11 months out and I know that around the 6th month, my weight slowed down drastically to a crawl. It came off little by little and the closer I get to goal, the slower it goes, like zero. I miss the times when I would be dropping the weight like others on here but I have to face the fact that if I did lose tremendously right now, I would look like a skeleton! Don't want to be that extreme. You only have 36 lbs to go. So to baby your tummy because it's not feeling that well right now, try utilizing LilMissDiva's "The Basic Bootcamp" to help you get jump started. If you have difficulty finding it on here, let me know and I believe I have it copied in my docs on my computer. You have come this far and you can do this! We are here to help you achieve what ever it is that you want and need! :)

The surgeon is going to do another surgery to fix the reflux. It's so severe that the radiologist that did the upper GI was afraid to let me lie flat once she saw the amount of acid being pushed back up.

I'm going to start the Basic Bootcamp this week. That is a great idea. If I could just see small progress, I wouldn't feel like such a failure.

THanks for the support. I feel defeated. :-(

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
