FINALLY LOSING!!!!

YES I AM YELLING CAUSE ITS BEEN A WHILE SINCE THIS HAS HAPPENED. I AM LOSING AGAIN, I HAVE LOST 6LBS SINCE MY LAST DR.S VISIT ON THE 4TH OF THIS MONTH! I AM FINALLY DOWN IN MY TEENS INSTEAD OF THE 220'S! So do I count this without going to the Dr.'s officialy?? Marti-28lbs but if you count the last 6lbs its -34!!!!!

Yeeeahhhh Marti You go girl! What did you do to get the scale to budge? I'm having a hard time right now and maybe what you did could help me *crossing fingers* Deanna

Hi, Deanna We are almost twins. I had my surgery on 1/26/05. I like you am having a hard time losing weight. I am at a stand-still. I have only lost 35 lbs so far. If you have any suggestions , please let me know. I am not exercising as a I should and I do not get 60 gms of protein so maybe that is my problem. Good Luck with everything. Kim

COUNT IT! Girl you have earned it, of course for me the number I write down are the ones that show on my "official day" of measuring each week and I make sure I try to be wearing the same thing (nothing), do it on the same scale (making sure it is zeroed first), and try and do it around the same time (typically I measure in mornig after my bm but before I eat). HTH! and keep up the good work and your renewed spirits!

Good for you. Count it definately count it. Doesn't it feel good!

Marti: I am SO happy for you!!!! Congrats. Now may you remember this long plateau when you have the next one! Have faith that the surgery is going to work for you and just remember that your body needs time to "catch" up. Congrats! Sassy

Count'em girl you lost 'em.......Congrats keep moving............Peggy

Right on, Marti!!!!! I'm sooooo thrilled for you -- and you betcha' friend -- COUNT EM!!!

Congratulations Marti!!! I'm so glad to hear that you are making progress. Just remember never to give up and that we all lose at a different rate. I would count it if I were you. You don't need to have your doctor validate it. Keep up the great work!!!! Take care and God Bless! Aloha, Pat

Marti, Count them! I do. I am stuck right now. I get stuck for 3 weeks them lose 10-20 pounds in 1-2 weeks and them it starts again. Keep up the great work!
