You look fantastic! Congrats

Great job cupofjojo! I know I'm ready to shop also! I think I'm close to done losing. Got further than I ever thoughts would. This was such a great choice! I used to have so much back pain and pain from arthritis in both knees, previously had knee replacement on both knees. Now I'm pain free. I feel like a new person.

Anyone else let yourself have a little something sweet and get racing pulse or the feeling of sudden high blood pressure?

I have chest pain if I eat something too sweet!

Almost a year post op! Would love to hear how everyone is doing!

I suck ???? only 78 lbs down since HW and 58 down since surgery. My Dr just put me on thyroid medicine so I'm hoping that will help. I'm discouraged but I also haven't had much time to work out lately so I'm sure that is some of it.

I understand how you feel. I haven't had time to work out lately either. DId my first workout in a few months yesterday. My weightloss has stalled. I know the stress of buying a house and moving away from my friends and family has made it hard to get my butt out of the house.

However instead of focusing on the weight I haven't lost, I try to remember that if I didn't have this done, I wouldn't have lost the weight I have. Odds are I would be 20+ pounds heavier now. And even with the stress and not having worked out, my weight has stayed in the same 5lb range. That's miraculous for me!

So just remind yourself to use the tool you've been given and don't get down on yourself. You wouldn't have lost 78lbs without it.

Meant to reply to @@crysclev whoops!

You don't suck! 78lbs is fantastic! I've only lost 70 but i know I would've still been almost 300lbs last year. At least you know why (so do I) the weight loss has stalled and how to fix it! Good luck and keep at it!
