Lost 109 lbs but...at least 100 more to go.

I suppose everyone else has made their goals, but I just wanted to say I'm still trying. Anyone else a slow loser? Loretta 386/277/177

Hi Loretta, I lost 115lbs and stopped....I know its because I can eat carbs again....I try not to but its hard....I feel great and I know I want to lose another 50 to 60 more but If I don't and as long as I don't gain I am very happy with what I have lost..... Dawn 315/200/150-healthy

I lost 50lbs started having side pains and stopped losing. I haven't lost weight in a year. I had my appendix out 3/06 and have had bowel problems since then. Tomorrow I am having a colonoscopy so I am on a liquid diet today and nothing until after the procedure around 2pm tomorrow. I am using this as an opportunity to "get back to basics" I just recently read how if we are even slightly dehydrated it slows our metabolism down by as much as 5%. Also, I went to the gym yesterday and today. I was never fortunate enough to have a tiny appetite after surgery and have always been able to eat whatever I want (not a good thing). I think part of the reason I lost the 50lb in the first place was because I went to the gym 6 days a week! Loretta, I feel your frustration but just know you aren't alone.

I know exactly how you feel. I have lost 100 lbs. and haven't lost anything in about 9 months. Last November I could blame it on a lack of exercise because I had a large tumor taken out of my left thigh, but I am fully recovered and not back into the exercise mode. I really want to lose another 50-60 lbs. so I can get a tummy tuck. I havent post in a LONG time so I decided to log back on and get some inspiration to lose more. Keep going! We CAN do it!
