Thought I would start a April buddy board.

My surgery is set for April 21st.

Hight-- 5'5"

Highest weight - 373

Today 362 still need to lose a few more.

Lets all post our stats & check in before & after surgery.

Almost time to get this new journey started!

Good luck!!!!!

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]

I'm going in for RNY April 4 I'm 5'8 300lbs and have to do 3 weeks shake diet

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!!

Good luck to you its a challenge to do shakes only but you can do it!! Knowing you'll have a new body its a wonderful feeling!! Take care and God Bless

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.

Im definitely stuck, im hungry all the time, I get all my water in plus more and the protein. I started incorporating more protein shakes to get the protein in. I have only lost 83lbs since surgery. Feeling frustrated.

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]

For those of you on a full Fluid diet I discovered this today and it's like a desert yummmm... plain Greek yogurt mixed with low fat low sugar Jello and mix in some benefibre. Perfect Breakfast lots of Protein and tastes delish

H.w. 373

S.w 360

C.w. 225

Went from a size 28 to 13/14

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.

Before and after. 1yr

So today im 14 months out and have gained 10lbs, ugh. Im so frustrated. I started the 5 day pouch today, hoping this will help. Has anyone else gained on the pouch test? Any help would be appreciated.
