9TH Month up-date

Well i'm in my 9 th month after my wls, and i'm weighting 210 pounds. I went to my check up appointment , i'm stuck on the same weight for almost a month. But my Dr. said that's ok, ummmmmmmmm it's not ok. I want to loose more weight, I thought I was down at least to 200 pounds. I'm so frustrated, I'm trying to do my best with the diet. I want to continue loosing weight soon!!!!!!!!! See you all, wishing all the best in the coming holidays. Love you, Yvette.

I think we are almost all experiencing that kind of stall right now. You are ahead of the game compared to me as I'm at 219, so don't feel so bad! We are all going at our own pace right now, but we'll get there. Dina

I think we all beat up on ourselves when we haven't lost as much weight as we think we should have lost. I'm stuck at 100 pounds lost for the past 6 weeks and it's very frustrating, but as my husband reminds me at least I'm not gaining. I was so wrapped up into losing weight I forgot to look for the silver lining in the clouds. So from one wise person to another let's all remember no matter what we're going through it could be worse. I still have 6 pounds to lose between now and March 18th to meet my one year goal and I want to lose another 20 pounds by November 18th. So everyone let's hang in there and thank the higher power for what he has allowed to do thus far.

Yvette, I know it does suck being stuck! I have been stuck for almost 2 months!!! I am freaking out! BUT then again I know its the holiday season and trying not to stress TOO much. Its hard not to though. I have been sick on and off and haven't been to the gym. I am currently going through some kind of bronchitis junk and before that was a nasty cold so not going to the gym has really really REALLY stalled my weight loss. I can't wait until I feel better so that I can start working out again. I want to see that scale move! I LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas. Its my favorite holiday but I will be a bit relieved when its over and I dont have to worry about cookies and holiday food! I will be able to get back on track and prepare for the summer! Hang in there we'll get there! We can do it!!! Elizabeth M
