I realized that the clothes I wore last year at this time are big on me,not by nuch, but definitely noticeable. So, although I haven't lost an ounce since last summer, my body is a little smaller. That makes me happy. yesterday I completely a walk for ALS. I never would have been able to do that prior to surgery. I am always trying to remind muself of where I was and where I am now. The pounds may not come off, but that's OK. maintaining is certainly a successful accomplishment.at least for me!
I hope everyone is well.

I had WLS April 2007. Started at 310, went down to 215 and now am at 222. I am having many of the same concerns that I see on here.. weight gain, not being motivated to adhere to the pouch rules.. and now I am having terrible pain in my hips and thighs. It feels muscular. Stretching helps as done a warm bath. any ideas? I don't feel like the pain is coming from within the hip itself.

Hi A team . I am gonna get this stated since I know a few of you like to report how u r doing this week. I had a good week I am down -3 lbs this week. I been hitting the gym with a fellow lap bander she is only a year out and I admire her deterimination of the early drive I use to have I know I fight my self. I guess I get so complacent on my weight loss and she has give me the kick start I need and mometium and drive I been lacking.I feel real good from being 176 (the weight I gained ) a month ago to 164 lbs . I just love having a fill.. keeps the hunger at bay and gives me the tool to keep working. I am hoping to see 150 something by the holdays. I think 147 is so far away but hey seeing 150 something would be heaven.. My doc thinks 130 somethig is where I should be based on my tiny frame . But at 130 something I would just look like a melted candle with all the excess skin.. I got such tiny arms and legs.. I guess being really petite built
is not how I saw or really see yet myself. I look at the old me and I am thinking .WOW!!!

Same old crap, pancreatitis. Has anyone heard of other people getting this after gastric bypass?? I am seriously hating life right now. I have lost 11 lbs in a month. Cant eat without throwing up. I had my levels drawn again yesterday and they are climbing again. I am scheduled on the 9th to have an MRCP done. Im also trying to get packed to move at the end of the month.
Stress is probably going to kill me if the pancreatitis doesnt :(
Shar Im sorry to hear about your wrist. I hope you are getting along better.
Will try to make sure and check in on Sunday.
Life has had me busy with my grandbaby lately. Weight wise, I am still holding at 161-163. I was hoping to get into the 150's this month but evidentily it is not going to happen this month. I have still not gotten back on a schedule of taking my meds! I am working on that!!
Sorry to hear about you wrist Shar and Lisa keep on updating about your sisters. You guys are in my prayers!
