Major NSV: I got my @ss kicked by some awesome roller coasters last night at Universal Studios. I didn't even need the larger seats on the ride.

that's great!!! I so enjoy actually fitting in booths at restaurants!!! I used to barely fit or not fit at all, now I fit with plenty of room to spare!

    This weekend was my daughter's wedding! It was so beautiful!! I saw people that I hadn't seen since before my surgery and they were blown away!!! I met a lady who had the bypass 6 years ago. She lost 60 pounds and has gained 20 back...she inspired me to make sure that is not what I do!!! Here is a picture of my husband & I walking our daughter down the aisle...I think we all look great!!!

    I think I'm in a weight-loss stall. Lost a little, .4 this week and last week too. Very frustrating as I'm so close to reaching the 60lbs milestone. Aaaasaargh!!! I've been working out a bit more than I was but it's pretty sporadic. The big problem is that I feel hungry now a lot more than I did a month ago. I want to eat and I am struggling with that urge. Sometimes it's definitely emotional but sometimes I just feel hungry, dammit!!! I having a hard time staying at 1200 calories and it keeps creeping up. I thought this surgery would make the constant hunger go away! Feeling frustrated and discouraged at the moment.

    Just wondering how many calories everyone is now consuming and what everyone is eating???? I am taking in about 900-1000 calories a day and eating just about anything except pasta and some bread products. Still losing weight and working out at least 3 days a week.

    I am eating between 800-1100. My nut said shoot for 800-900 buy I haven't been keeping it that low. DOS 2/20/13 and have lost 32 lbs since surgery. Need to cut back and concentrate even more on protein protein protein.

    I think 2-3 lbs/week is average or slightly above average if you are at least a couple of months out. Do you exercise also?

    No, I don't exercise at all. But, I'm starting at the hospital as a Registered Nurse and will be on my feet, soon, 12 hours three times a week. So that will be plenty of exercise! I noticed during clinicals I lost a lot more weight as well because I was on my feet for 36 hours/week. So, hopefully my weight loss will go faster.
