Sheila, Congrats on making the century club. I totally understand how you feel. I to lose slowly at times, but I found that if I go on a diet of nothing but protien and water for a couple of days, the weight loss starts up again. Try this. I know it will help.

Topic: Can' believe I made it!
Just wanted to share a little news with everyone! May 16 will be my one year mark. I started with a weight of 307 and as of today I weigh 178 pounds. I can't believe I made it. Who said that a man of 52 years of age can't do it. Thanks for all the support from everyone and good luck to everybody. Your WLS brother, Gene

One year ago today ( May 5, 2003) I had my surgery. Today I'm 100 pounds down (from 227 to a beautiful 127!!!). I went from a size 20/22 to a size 4/6!! My life has changed for the better and I also feel much better ( no more High blood pressure or sciatica) Thank you Obesity. com for all the support

Topic: RE: I need Imput - Please!
Does drinking water or no-low calorie drinks help with the hunger pangs? Overeating is not a major problem for me, but I truly still feel that my pouch is a fragile little "baby" that I don't want to injure, and that helps. My overweight was also caused by a lot of "stuff" from my past that God had healed before I had the surgery, so I'm not really dealing with depression, but I encourage you to continue with your healing proccess, even if it hurts sometimes. Keep up the hard work and Lord Bless you! Lori 343/213/healthy & content

Topic: RE: May 5th scared and snappy to everyone around me!
Hi, I know how you feel, I was so scared before surgery, that when they took me in , I had to wait a extra 2 hrs.,cause they had a lady a head of me that was taking some time. Any way, I changed my mind, almost got up and left, but the nurse must of heard me and gave me something to relax me, and relax me I was. The nice thing I know was I was in my room and them telling me I was okay. Now it was'nt a hop skip and a jump for at least 2 weeks. But believe me, it was all worth it. I went back to work exactly 1 month. I am sometimes missing my sweets, but then I just look at my new clothes and it is worth every stapel that they put in me. good luck and make sure you write back, do alot of walking and no problem with blod clots. Bye Rosie
