Merry Xmas to all Janice highest weight-320 surgery weight-231 2006- 145-147pds.

I am here. Moving to a new house. Close on January 12 so busy busy busy. Down around 120 pounds and feeling great. Have a follow up (My surgeon wants us to get lab work and see him every 6 months) on Weds. I have not been good about taking my iron pills and terrible about taking in extra protein. I am sure he will not be pleased with me. I may have lost 5 pounds since last time. His associate told me last time to lose 40 pounds.

Wow so glad to hear from you Congratulations on the move. Where are you moving to ?? Can you tell me how your surgery was and your doctor? How much weight did you lose total from surgery?? I love to share story`s.....I am now up and down I find that I have my old habits as I will try to get in some sugar and then when I over eat I will be sooooooooo sick You would think That I would learn after almost 2 yrs. I got down to 140 pds the week of thanksgiving but today I weighed in at 149 pds........... I like to be about 145pds and i feel great then........ Hope all goes well for you and your family Janice

We are moving less then a mile from where we now live in The Villages, Florida. Dr Jawad in Ocala did my surgery laproscopic and I am down 120 pounds. I was 307 and now I go back and forth from 183 to 187 and back. I need to lose 35 or 40 pounds more but still feel great. I like an occassional M&M and do overeat but feel so bad that I don't do it often. I have stayed off carbonated drinks as instructed but crave them once in awhile. Our new house is 3 bedroom and the one we are in now is 2. There is just my husband and I but since we moved to The Villages we get loads of visitors from up north.
