My surgery date was 4/8/15 and my weight has also slowed down. I, too, am able to eat a little more. I've lost a total of 117 lbs and still have 45 lbs to go to get to my goal weight of 180 and it's so hard for me. I'm afraid that I'm done losing because I can't seem to get that scale to budge. Some days I do eat things I know I shouldn't but most of the time I try to stick to my plan, but I know I haven't been doing all that well with fluids and Protein and need to get back on track with that. When I try to be good the scale still refuses to move. I'm getting so that I'm scared to eat or drink anything just to get the scale to finally move but I know that won't help. This is getting frustrating[emoji22]

Hi lea, i know it can be frustrating but at we know what to do and just get back on track with the liquids its VERY important to drink your liquids and Protein your body def needs it!! There are times when I forget to get my protein in and I end up feeling crapy. lol Good luck to you and Im sure everything will work out!! :)

Thank you @audmac8 I appreciate the kind words! I am determined and so far the shakes aren't so bad. I'm a night time eater that's when I am having issues lol usually don't eat during the day very often so that's the easy part.

Yeah, I'll definitely get my act together because I refuse to believe this is all the weight that I'm gonna lose.

83lbs isn't something to scoff at its an achievement even if it isn't as much as you'd like to loose . Key is to work with your Nut and excersize as much as possible

Today is my Surgiversary and I've officially lost 120.6 lbs. I'm 42 lbs from my surgeons goal and 62 lbs from my dream goal of 160. I'm still stuck and feel defeated. No matter what I do I can't seem to get out of the 220s. Even before I let my weight creep up to 342, I've always been 220. I'm wondering if this is where my weight is meant to be? [emoji17]

One year check in!

I'm a few days late.

What a year this has been. So glad I had this life changing surgery.

H.w. 373

S.w 360

C.w. 225

Went from a size 28 to 13/14

4X shirt to XL

I can't believe how much more energy I have.

I still want to lose another 40 or at least be a size 10 but if I don't that's ok.

Here are my before and after.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
