Topic: RE: Do I have the ugliest mug or what?
not, so not an ugly pic. good strategy, though. i'm a feb loser, too. but reading the other posts, i'm only doing ok. i have no problem with getting in enough water but am only beginning with my exercise - have some issues with my feet and leg i'm working on. and definitely having to work on the protein thing. i try really hard, but the shakes just don't taste so great to me.
i'm not really stuck, either, but i'm not reallly weighing myself since the scale didn't agree with the dr's last time i was in for a follow up. LOL so i'm just trying my best and will have to let the chips fall where they may.
keep it up.

I seem to lose weigh fast for two weeks then slow for two weeks. The scale will drive you crazy if you let it.

Topic: RE: Another plateau
I am not really at a plateau yet but the last two weeks I have only lost a couple of pounds. I really haven't been eating much at all, what I can have doesn't appeal to me so I just don't eat and I wonder if this may be contributing to my slow down. It is frustrating and for me scary cause it makes me wonder if I am done losing already.

Topic: RE: 3-6 month info request/update
I was told from the beginning no grazing! It can sabatoge your weight loss and defeat the purpose of having a small pouch for a stomach. In my program they teach you to have 3 meals a day (even if you only eat a few bites if you think you are not hungry or you are not used to eating breakfast) plus up to 2 snacks, and don't go for more than 5 hours without eating. My surgery was 2/22/05 and I started out at 250 lbs. I've now lost 51 pounds so far!

I am doing well!! I went to the doc last week..I have lost a total of 83lbs since surgery (113lbs since 9/23/04). I cleaned out my closets, got rid of so much stuff and bought a few new things, some of which are now getting big on me!!

great smile - lights up your whole face!
I'm just a little over 3 months out - getting in my water and exercise, but could be doing better with my protein. I am finding that I really stall if I am not exercising. Some food issues, in that I keep wanting stuff I shouldn't have and eating carbs that are not doing me any good nutritionally. I may go back to the therapist that I saw before my surgery to help work on the head hunger.
I've lost 45 pounds and down about 3 pant sizes - can't complain about that!
keep up the good work!
