Weight before surgery: 235.8 (at the consult)

Date of surgery: 7/9/12

Weight 9/01: 184.4

Weight 9/08: 181.8

Weight 9/16: 177.0 (Switched to Sundays)

Weight 9/23: 174.8

I hit a stall over the weekend so I waited until today. And it was worth the wait. I won't be 160 on Wednesday but losing 10 lbs a month makes me smile :) Time to start looking at the next few challenges and when I MIGHT hit goal. Continued success to all of you and see you in challenge.

I'm in!

Before Surgery 255

Surgery Date 5/10/12

CW 189.7

GW 172

Not sure if this overly ambitious at this stage or not... but I will do everything I can!

I made my original goal but then revised it to 167. On Saturday I weighed in at 168.5. Unfortunately I won't get to weigh in again due to traveling. So... Some success but not quite what I hoped for!

Good luck to everybody - moving on to the Thanksgiving challenge when I get home. :)

Halloween Challenge: Goal: 153

I didn't make my goal. I'm officially in a stall. This week could have gone so much better if I hadn't been sick. I came down with walking pneumonia. Ugh!!! Anyway, I'll take the 11.2 lbs in 8 weeks. Seems slow, but 14.2 away from goal so I expect it. I'm hoping to make my official goal by New Years Day and will be hopping on that thread next.

Congrats to all the losers whether you made goal or not you still lost!!!!

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
