Congratulations to u and ur doing good so far on ur journey

Thank you! I don't feel like I'm doing particularly great, so some encouragement was nice to hear! Lol. I got down to about 308 before they gave me the date to go on my 2 week liquid diet and then I went on eat-a-palooza and gained about 10 pounds back. It was over Thanksgiving. Lol. They say that's a normal reaction but dammit!

I sure hope so! How far out are you and how much have you lost so far? (If you don't mind me asking!) ")

Congrats

Sounds like you might be burning more calories than you are taking in.. Working out 2-1/2 hours per day, and eating what's on the Dr. list? I think your exercising too much.. (Funny to hear that, huh?)

That's my guess.

Call your surgeon & get his/her opinion. I was told to 'walk' after surgery... That was it, 30 min per day.

My weight loss came to a halt when I wasn't taking in enough Protein & Water. I'm still working on that..

Ge'ee! Thanks, I was giving on any replies.... I've not tried much protien, and last night I made myself drink about a galion, as found out my body wanted more water than I've been thinking I needed.

If one can help please feel free to share.

My surgery was 11/28/12 and I've lost 24.5 pounds so far.

I was 276.4' date=' before surgery, now I'm 262.2, it's crazy how slow my weight is coming off, so I'm starting to get a little discouraged, but my doctor says everything is fine. I just got my first adjustment dec7,2012. Hopefully more weight will come off now. I havent told my family about my surgery, Only my husband because I didn't need any discouraging people in my life. It's not that you're hiding anything, it's just that you are doing the best that you can for you, this is about you, your health, your body!:)[/quote']

I understand only my immediate family knows no one else. None of their business.

Yay you! That is awesome! Keep up the good work girlie!

Hi guys... I too have over 100 lbs to loose. Pats on the back to al of us who have lost.... I am 5'7" and had my surgery 02/21/12. My starting weight was 340 and I am now at 247.... So 93 lbs gone. Discouraging sometimes because the weight I am now is the weight some people are starting at.... But I'm fighting the good fight as you all are. I'm thankful everyday that I am on this journey...this is a great thread to start!!!

Hey don't be discouraged! Some people are short! Look at how much weight you've lost and be PROUD - you should be!

I got a surprise yesterday. My doctor had a cancellation and instead of surgery on 2/25/13, my pre-op is 12/26/12 with surgery on 1/4/13! I will soon be counting down with the rest of you! :wub:
