Wombat, you're doing GREAT! Hang in there, plateaus don't last forever...it only SEEMS that way! ;)

I was getting really close to my goal of 208, so I moved it to 205...

Funny thing, I was only hoping to maintain over the holidays...I've been indulging in some holiday sweets...I went to the doc yesterday and STILL lost 6.5 pounds in 4 weeks! I LOVE my band!!!!!!!!

Thanks MM!! I know a lot of it is the stress at work and I haven't made the best choices. Exercise is not an option with the long days I'm putting in so I've got to get my diet back in order!!! I moved all of 0.2; but thank God it's in the right direction ;)

:clap2:So FINALLY - broke into the 170's. Had a feeling the second fill would start things going after all the cardio I've been doing, but it might be the chunk of "thick auburn wavy hair" that got chopped today. 14 inches going to "Locks of Luv" , I feel lighter -

My Dr is more aggressive that some I see here, Have my 3rd fill scheduled the day after XMas, Might not need it .... Not hungry at all!

Good Luck All~

Thank you all. I got to say, this has been the easiest time for me since I got the surgery. Maybe I have finally found the sweet spot. I am hardly hungry anymore, and when I do eat, I get full fast, and stay full for many hours. It is about time. After more that 6 months, and over 8cc's, I was beginning to think that it would never work for me.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
