I can't believe we're finally on the losers bench! Congrats to everyone on this side of the journey. Keep us updated with your progress.

Our April first peeps are Deana Wright, MissMeagan and Nella. Ladies, tell us everything!

Had my rny on april 26 th so it took about six months for my gall bladder to take a dump. Had it out three days ago

Yikes! Hope u feel better now that its gone! It's a much easier surgery than rny so you should be on your feet in no time!

How is everybody doing?? Happy 6th month Anniversary to all. My 6 month anniversary was 10/29/13. Went to the doctor's for my 6 month checkup. He said I was on schedule for my weight loss, maybe a little on the lower end. I am at a plateau. I haven't lost anything in about 7-8 weeks. Very discouraging since I am only eating about 1000 calories a day, getting about 60+ grams of protein a day, drinking all my water and taking all vitamins. Not to mention all the time at the gym. The doctor said he thinks I will lose another 10-12 lbs by my one year visit in April, and he doesn't think I will lose much more than that (without a superhuman effort). I want to get to Onederland, but I have been at a stall. I had really wanted to get to at least 175 lbs, but the doctor seems to think I've maxed out with my weight loss. My labs were all good, except my protein was low. I am still in the "obese" range on the BMI chart. Has anyone else slowed down or stopped losing weight? I try not to be discouraged, knowing how far I've come, but I can't help wish that I could lose another 25 lbs. But I won't give up trying.

So, so sorry to hear you lost the pregnancy. I was just reading through older postings and read that sad news. Take care of yourself and keep healthy. I wish you all the best.

My surgeon said there is really no way to say if you will lose more or not! Dont give up as there are ways to get there. Change up your routine once in awhile works from what I hear. I went back to liquids for a few days and have lost some more but it is definitely slowed down. I was at 67% of excess weight lost at my 6 month so I assumed I was almost done. Ive lost some since then so you never know. Good luck girl!

Have I told u guys just how much I love y'all? We got the best group of folks for April!!
