Dorthe, your new picture is amazing!
Me, I look like I fell into a vat of purple haze.

Topic: RE: Weight loss
I'm stuck again at -85 lubs. I know I do this, I've done it since the beginning, but it still gives me the creeps. *kicks scale again*
There is NO WAY we aren't going to lose more. My tummy only holds about 5 ounces and your pouch doesn't hold that much, I'm guessing. We also have the malabsorption going on, so we have to lose.
Patience. Anyone have any extra hanging around for us to borrow?

Topic: RE: How much weight have we lost?
I like this idea. We should add up to a bunch of weight lost!
I'm down 85 and stuck-stuck-stuck *kicks scales*
So that's
103.5
80
139
82
85
_____
489.5 pounds lost so far. Not bad for 5 people!!
Wowza!!
Add yours on and total it.

Well you are doing better then I am
I had surgery Feb 10th at 284, and today I weigh 202 for 82# lost - it's easy to try to compare yourself to others but we each lose at our own pace. Grats on your loss !

Jennifer, you are not losing slow hun, you are doing great. I had surgery the same day as you, I've lost 103 lbs since Janaury 14th and 82 since surgery date. We are on the same track and I don't consider myself a slow loser and neither does my surgeon.
Congrats on a wonderful job!

Topic: RE: Weight loss
Hi, my surgery was on the 23, and it is going super slow now, I started at 280 and now I am bouncing back between 203-205, it wont budge, I would really love to get under 200, But I am happy with the weight loss, I have to start excersising more regular, its just been so hot I havent felt like it. Sometimes I wonder if this is all the weight that I will lose???

Hi Dana,
I haven't been on in a very long time. You look great! Since surgery, I've now lost 80 lbs. This seems to be pretty normal and my Dr. is very happy. I look so much more like myself now. My fiance and I just moved into a new place and are shopping for a new gym. We went to Washington Sports Club last night and tonight it's Ballys. I really want to keep moving in the right direction.
Best wishes,
Cara
Topic: Weight loss
Hi everyone I was 5 months out on the 21st and I have lost 88lbs since surgery and 103 from highest I lost some before surgery. I was wondering if this is about normal can anyone give me any input. I have a friend that has lost over 100lbs since surgery and mine is a lot slower. Is there anyone else that the weight is coming off slow. Thanks
