So far so good! I am about 15 lbs from goal and am holding steady. I stopped losing the weight about 3 months ago but my body is getting smaller. Major, major head hunger is going on but I try to keep the food itself at bay. I, too, feel like I am eating way too much. I still work out with a personal trainer at least 2 days a week and work out another 3-4 times a week by myself. The excess skin is staring to get on my nerves!! But I will soon have that taken off as well. According to the PS that will take at least 10 more lbs off the "old bod'". Can't wait for that!!! Much luck, love and prayers to all!!! Always, Karen B

I too think I need support now more then ever. I got on the scales this morning and found that I am back to the lowest weight I have been so far. I weighed 186.5 just after I got out of the hospital after having gallbladder removed, ovarian cyst removed and problem from adhesions repaired. At one time after that I went to 191. Now I am back at 186.5. I will be so excited if I even drop a pound in the next week. Off to fix a protein shake. I need to order more. I like Unjury blended with ice and a little skim milk. Sometimes I mix in some fruit.

I know what you mean--a few weeks back I had hernia repair---and all of a sudden put on 9 lbs for no reason---I had already lost the 7 I put on from the hospital--then wham--every day I got on the scale--it went up--I became depressed and panicked a bit--so I got real serious for about 2 1/2 days-and modified the plateau buster diet--and back off it came---and now--I dropped back down to my low--I was wondering what my body is doing--maybe its that 18-19 mth way of saying I am home---! I am really about at goal and since I will be having a LBL in December my doc said not to lose anymore until then--but I don't think thats an issue--really seems like things have levelled off! I hate that it gotten so quiet around here--I read the plastic surgery forum quite a bit and dream of the beautiful body i never had! Lol! We all still need to be there for each other --thats for sure! Take care! Lisa 3/15/05 338.5/157/?

Well it has been around 19 months since we had surgery. How are you all doing now? I am still 30 or 40 pounds from goal and have not lost any in 4 months or so. At least I am maintaining. Have been having major head hunger and feel I can eat way too much now. Scary. Have any of you started to gain back weight? Let's hear a roll call and tell how you are doing.

I haven't posted to this board in a while. Hope my fellow Marchers are doing well. I've converted my old profile to the new format and I'm inviting everyone to become a friend. Just send me a requested and I'll add you. Will try better to keep in touch. Sandy 357/190/165
