Congratulations on the weight loss girl. That is great. You are so right with the positive attitude.....Every pound you lose is more than you did before.
I may have lost 10 pounds before surgery....but it took forever and it came right back on. This time, every pound lost is a pound gone for good.
I don't care how long it takes me as long as I get it off....Good luck and we will both have many thinner and happier months to go.....

Topic: Breaking out in hives
For the last three days I have been breaking out in hives. I was wondering if anyone else had this experience. Or has anyone's allergies changed after surgery.

Oh My gosh...I had a 10 day stall too. It was a little less than 2 weeks after surgery and lasted for 10 days exactly. I thought I was going to die. I kept telling myself I knew what it was because I DEFINITELY wasn't doing anything wrong. I have followed everything to a T. I realize I will probably hit another stall pretty soon because I don't think your body can handle continuously losing, so I will just keep my head up and KNOW FOR A FACT it will pass.....
I feel better than ever too. It is amazing. I have energy, I feel like I'm alive again. I have gotten off of all my meds and I'm not so sure that wasn't keeping me down. Well, let's definitely keep in touch. Talk to you later,

Topic: RE: April 2008 RNY's
Had RNY April 14th - pre-surgery weighed 294 and today weighed in at 263 down 31 lbs. I stalled my 4th week for about a week and 1/2 and now I'm finally losing again. I've had problems with food getting stuck - learning how to chew and eat slower. My diet is all over the place and would like to be more focused in that area. No real problems to speak of, doing great and can't wait to see the number continue to drop

Hi Cyndi ~ Doing great! Officially hit the 40 pound mark this morning. I was frankly concerned when I had a 10-day stall, but that appears to be over for a little while. I'm exercising 6 days a week (my weekly workout schedule is in my blog), and feel better than I have in YEARS! Thanks for asking... and let's keep in touch Laura
