Aloha Pat, Congratulations!!!!!! God Bless, Syndi

Well 1st off i want to congrtulate all who have enters the Century club. I too made that goal earlier this month. I was 157 on my surgery date and as of today I am 152. I am just so thrilled to peices. I have not felt or looked this good for ages. I am a size 10. Which is totally awesome. I am a big girl and I carry my weight all over. All my co-workers keep asking me to stop, but my personal goal is 140-150. I wan to be able to stay within that range. Now I have been having some concerns, like I get the munchies at night after dinner. I try to munch on healthy stuff,health choice fudge pops and their rasberry and cream pops. I also have to keep reminding myself to drink my water. That will take the edge off the craving. I do not like this craving stuff. I want ot be rid of it. Now this morning Hubby treated me to breakfast. We went to IHOP and I had 2 harvest grain and nut pancakes, I did put a smidge of butter pecan syrup, and honestly a smidge, they were kind of dry (and believe me it was a total treat because I usually have a shake for breakfast. They were yummy. About 30 min later I really did not feel so great. I am afraid that I had dumping syndrome. I had the hot and cold sweats and my adbomen was all crampy. I got home real fast and I was starting to regergitate, but nothing was coming up except the foamies. I crawled in to bed and there I stayed until it passed which was about 2 hrs. I have to say that, that was the 1st time I had that happen. Won't d that again. lol Oh BTW that photo of me is awful I have sent a new one to the web team to have them put the new one up. I am sorry for the long post but I just needed to share. Thanks Peace n Light Chris 257/152/140

Kate you are a HOTTIE I hope it all works ot for you Any new Pics?

NO I REALLY DONT THINK THE DIET PILL THING IS A GOOD IDEAL NOW. COULD RUIN YOUR POUCH. I NEED TO EXERCISE, AND QUIT SNACKING. KEEP IN TOUCH PLEASE!

Oh I hope I'm not done ... but it has slowed down so much that it does worry me abit. I'm still loosing so I'm good. I what I wonder is ... doc says I should be at my goal weight the first 12 months since I only had 100 to loose. I've lost 78 thus far. I read that the surgery has a solid success rate of 77% - so, I've reached that point YEAH!!!!!!!!! but I would really like to get the 100 off. So, I'm thinking okay........ I have 2 1/2 month for my year anniversary ... can it be done??? 22lbs more??? in 11 weeks? I don't think so. I've been MAYBE sometimes loosing 1lb a week .... suggestions?? I'm open for some. I know it's not all about the number and be thankful for what've lost so far blah blah YES I feel better, look better but HEY I want FULL success. And Yes I know that full weight loss is 12-18 months but I understand I had a goal ... I would like to do what I can to get there in the 12 months.
