hiya... this always depresses me. I was just talking with a friend of mine that is in the same spot you and i are in where we never really got under 200. and gained some weight. She said... and i don't know why i never thought of this... she said "I have the type of disorder where I need to feel full ALL THE TIME." I never thought of it in that way but a light bulb went off in my head and i was like YES THATS IT!  My body slash mind needs to feel full all the time... and shes like...which makes me want to eat all the time. And im like yeah. why the heck is that? I guess im just a little slow... i mean i know i always feel like eating but never much equated it to the fact that i want to feel full... in fact i hate feeling full... yet i crave it. 'sigh' weird. i stocked up on carrotts and celery so i can graze on that all day instead of bad stuff... so hopefully that will help... that and drinking water constantly... anywho...

surgery march
starting weight 338
lowest 204
current 230
highest weight gain 34
lost 8 pbs. goal weight in the 160s. true goal weight 140

never give up.

It is also not our fault that we did not get below 200 lbs. All RNY surgeries are different
depending on the surgeon you had. We are not transected enough from the small intestin to the stomach area. That is why a revision is probably needed, but, wont happen with me as no money & no insurance. The ones that I know of that were transected longer than I was all got below 200 & got to there goal weight.
You are right we never give up.
