Check out my website and you will see that I have been fooling around with my last weight amount and I mad!! I am furious about the fact that I have been given this WONDERFUL amazing tool that is giving me a new life and I am messing around with it. I want this weight off and I want it off now. We can all do this together!! I want to challenge us all to really buckle down this next month and work toward that goal together. WE HAVE COME TOO FAR!!!! WE HAVE WORKED TOO HARD. And WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!!
I love you all and I am thankful for the encouragement that you have all given me and let us all come together, especially this next month and really pu**** to the end and try to come as close to getting to our goals!!!

I too have been a bit slack, I find myself wanting to snack and that in itself is dangerous. I really want to lose 10 more lbs before my year f/u on 04-20, then I will be down 130lbs. I want to lose even more but I think in the 3-4 weeks 10 more lbs is achievable. Thank you for your post, it does help to know that other people may feel like they need to get back on track too. Good luck, lets make this next month count.
Hi, my name is Darlene and I'm new to this message board.
I had surgery April 18 of last year. My stats are:
284/176
my surgeons goal was a loss of 104# so I guess I have attained that, but I would love to lose another 20# at least (I'm 5'9"). That way even if I gained 5# I'd still be in a healthy range.
I am experiencing exactly what I'm reading on your board. Almost nothing makes me sick, although I do avoid bread-don't like the "heavy" feeling it gives me. I do pretty well with my protein, I eat a LOT of meat-especially beef. My husband says I live on Wendy's chili.
My main problem is that I am back to only drinking 2-3 glasses of ANYTHING (water, decaf tea) a day and am once again falling into the habit of only eating 2-3 meals a day. I never really get hungry, although I do feel "empty" and want to eat. Also, my meals are larger than my Dr. wants--I can easily eat 7-9 oz of steak per meal (this is why I don't have any protein problems!). I know I'm eating at least 1 c per meal most days but have justified this as the equivalent of 6 (4 oz) meals. I'm also snacking occassionally on no-nos--potato chips, cookies, micro popcorn.
I'm having a hard time disciplining myself to get back on track and this scares me. My first 8 weeks after surgery were HELL; I spent a week in the hospital with a pic line because I couldn't even keep SPIT down, and I had to be stretched 4 times in 2 months due to exessive scar tissue. I can't believe I'm being this stupid, and for what? I LOVE my weight loss, I LOVE getting into size 10s and even some 8s.
Unbelievably, I'm not gaining weight, but I am stalling myself; it is only coming off at about 1-2# every few weeks.
Anyway, I'm glad to have found this forum, and I appreciate you all letting me vent! I also appreciate the accountability, because everyone around me thinks I'm doing just great--they don't understand how easy it is for me to get off track. I will head back to the gym tomorrow morning and try to get a handle on myself.
