One year down, a lifetime to go!

Well, May 7 marked my one year anniverary. I am down from 402 lbs to 230 lbs this morning. My check up is tomorrow and I look forward to finding out about TT. I am a bit concerned because I have not been losing any weight in the last few months except for a pound here and there. Because of complications during surgery, I never had the bypass done, just the stomach reduction and I am wondering if this is as good as it will get. I am not complaining by any means since I can now do everything I couldn't do for years. I went horsebackriding for my birthday, I am going camping for my vacation. I am riding a bike and walking everywhere. This surgery has changed my life, I just hope I can lose another 50 lbs before I come to a complete standstill. Did anyone else have similiar cir****tances?...I am curious...Thanks

I also have seen a dramatic slowdown. Between Feb-March 9 I lost 11# which was the most I have lost since the very beginning, then March-April was nothing, now April-May was 3#s. I am with you on wanting just a little more. I have 13 more until my BMI is in the "Normal" range. I would love to lose more, but I would be just fine with that! Good luck and stay active!
