Thank God!!!
I didnt know what was going on. every week i weighed and nothing , this went on for 3 weeks. then last week 4 lbs was off and i had finally gotten under the 200 mark. only to 199 but hey at least its not in the 200 anymore...hehehehehe. so when i look back i had a platue at 6 weeks that only lasted a week. and this one that lasted 3 weeks. has anyone heard of any more platues before the one year mark.? what kinda changes have your bodys gone though sence surgery? my body hurts more due to the stress the weight had put on my bones. yes i can do more things like cross my legs again. and stand more then 5 mins at a time without pain. does anyone still get the clogged feeling if food isnt chewed up good.?
Great Job every. Keep up the great work
God Bless

Topic: RE: Have any of you experienced this???
Is'nt it just awesome what we all have gone though. I am in the same boat as you all. but i am just down to a size 18 pant and i want to say 14/16 top. I love it that i can fit into my husbands shirts.(so does he) I am 199 from 283 . this past month has been my hardest. I went three weeks without loseing a thing. then last week i finally lost 4 lbs. i got used to a 10 to 15 lb. weight loss a month. so im guessing it is that I hit the spot where my weight loss is cut in half. my goal is to lose 50 more lbs. and I pray i dont hit a platue like this last one. have any of you done the same thing. and did your weight loss pick up after the platue?
Keep up the Great work everyone. and thank you for posting. it really does help to know that im not alone in this..
God Bless

Topic: 6 Month Anniversary
Today is my 6 month anniversary and I feel great!
I just got back from Florida on Saturday and was concerned as to whether or not I had lost any more weight, as I did not have access to any scales! I weighed in this a.m. and well, to my surprise I've lost 4 lbs. since June 29.
That's a total of 94 lbs.
omg only 6 more to the century club and only 19 more to my goal! I just can't believe it! I was hoping to be at my goal weight by August 21, but it doesn't look like that'll happen. I should be at goal by at least my 8 month anniversary, which is September 21, don't ya think?
One question I have is this: Is it possible and is it good for someone who has had wls to be loosing around 21 lbs. a month? I know of someone who had the surgery in May and they have told me they have lost 42 lbs. since her surgery date. It just seems like it's too much toooooo soon.
I am so amazed at how different my life is. I'm more active and have so much more energy!
When I'm out walking, guys look at me!
Gotta love it!
While in Florida I went shopping for new clothes! It was so much fun (even though I had to shop by myself). I bought a dress and two pairs of pants that are size 8's! Who ever thought, me in a size 8. How cool is that!
I'm on cloud nine!
I would like to wish
everyone out there success and good wishes on your journey to a new life!

Catherine,
My six month anniversary is coming up on the 26th. I was hoping to have been down to 100lbs by then. Well, I had the same trouble. Got on the scale naked and GAINED 3.5 lbs. Trust me there is NO way that I ate enough to have gained three and a half pounds. Must be the atmosphereic pressure. LOL
I am down 91 lbs and my dream of loosing one hundred at the 6 month mark will pass on the 26th,
but I know that it will come off. I have had times during this process were I have my period and then don't for a couple of months and think that perhaps it is related to the weight gain. Oh well ... At least we all know that we are experiencing the same things and we are not alone on this journey. Keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take Care. Laurie
