I'm a new vsg to. I started at 244 and 5'4" Jan 2012 then 231 the day of surgery 09/04/12 and 2 weeks later I'm at 214. I've been at

214 for a week though is that normal? I'm so nervous am I doing this right. I research and see other people doing and looking amazing and thinking no way am I gonna look like that. I would love any advice.

Plateau's are normal, try changing up you workout, do weight first than cardio.

Take'n all this one day @ a time...

Started at 230 now 6 months out and at 180. I would like to lose more but I'm a slow loser. Happy for every pound. I haven't lost any in a couple of months. Need to excercise but I hate it.

High weight 247

Surgery day 6/10/11 233

Today 124.6

I started at 234 now 133. Worked out in the begining no longer work out. I don't gain much just 2-3 lbs after my cycle then always back to 133 -131lbs. i eat pretty much anything I want still can't stand carboonated drinks cold they give me severe indigestion. Can't really drink and eat at the same time I get full really quick. After 17 months out down 100lbs i still can't consume more than 4oz at a time..

No point for surgery if you are 240 lbs.

I do t know why you say this. I was 245 and BMI was 42, I am only 5' 2" so am short. Have you ever tried to lose 100 lbs on your own? This statement made me kind of mad.
