Don't worry you will continue to move forward! I'm struggling too but a bit differently. I'm at 226-- lowest I've ever been in my adult life by about 25 lbs' date=' and I'm having a really hard time wrapping my head around the fact that I need to (and will) lose more. My goal is 175, so I've got a good way to go. But I don't even recognize myself. All my friends, co workers- all who are very supportive and so happy for me- think I look great, but they are seeing me like I've never been as well. I have to really believe and know that I am NOT DONE YET! I need to keep losing and get to my goal. I am so grateful for this forum and knowing I'm not alone.[/quote']

I agree that this forum is great! I know the people here rely understand.

We can do this!

How many ounces are you guys eating in a serving? I am still only able to get about 3 maybe 3.5 ounces in during a meal. I measure and weigh all my meals. Is this pretty average to the rest of june surgeries?

I ear between 2.5 and 3ish.

I agree!!! I don't know what I would do if I hadn't found this site!! It is one of the first things I recommend to anybody looking to have RNY. Although, I think I especially lucked out with the June group. This group ROCKS!!!

I am so frustrated! I have been stuck at 209 for about 3 weeks. This is the weight I have been at before and could never get below. I gave up after a few months and gained it all back and more. I am so afraid I will give up. :(

oh my goodness! I'm stuck at 209 too! you are not alone!

I'm celebrating little victories...

Friday was homecoming and I was a chaperon. A former student who I have spent a lot of time with asked her sister who the new teacher with short blonde hair and glasses was.... it was me!!! lol Mind you I shared a cabin on the senior cruise with this young lady last spring. LOL so that was exciting... and then yesterday I went shopping at Old Navy for MYSELF for the first time ever! Bought a cute little dress in a size XL :) happy dance here!

I go for my 3 month check up tomorrow... was really hoping to be in onderland, but I'll be happy at my 209 even though I'm sure it'll be a little more since it is in the afternoon and not first thing in the morning. I'll get there soon!

It's a super feeling to buy something, even an XL in a normal store.

I love this idea! Wonderful. I work for a shelter that house survivors of domestic violence and I know how important community is.

Well done. Great way to go!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
