Hi Nolar, Yes, click on anyones ruler and it will take you to the site. Sign up, enter your weight and etc.., and save. I think it then shows you the ticker that you have chosen and saved, you copy and then go to your name at the top of the page on this site LBS and it will take you to your page, click on change profile, then change signature and all you do is Paste onto that and it should appear. Good Luck, GB :crying:

Been a while since I checked in, but thought I would share. As of today I am down to 265, a loss of 31 since surgery (May 7th), and 60 overall since December.

I've gone from a size 56 pants to a 48, and I'm looking forward to getting to a 36!

Everyone is doing so good.. It's great to see everyone progress.

I am down 1.8 lbs this week. I was hoping for more since I starved for a couple of days after the fill. That's OK, I'll take it. That puts me a 185, and moving right along.

Have a good week-end, and good luck to everyone next week.

Thanks to everyone. I have struggled in recent days with the adjustment to what I can and can not hold down. I've had a number of episodes recently where I've had PBs....you can see the countdown to launch going on inside my stomach...and the tough part...is does not stop until you are completely empty. I'm in a very high stress and highly public job so I have to be very careful about what i eat and where.....and I don't need security to scope out a location where I will be....i always know where the exits and the restrooms are whenever I have to eat somewhere :-) Keeping the faith....go get'em guys. 1 day at a time.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
