Topic: food tolerence
I am doing so well weight=wise, having lost about 147 since entering the program and 119 since surgery a year ago. I find my volume tolerence to be still decreasing and I am still not able to tolerate raw vegetables like salad or celery, or carrot stix. How bout anyone out there? I am surely not complaining because I have a life at 61 that I never dreamed possible. I took up cross country skiing during the winter!!!!! But I love salad and with the summer coming...... I would love to be able to partake in salads fresh from the garden. Su Ellia

hi yall,
my date is may 24,2004 as well, I have lost 140lb down to 250. which is great for me I did weigh right around 400lbs right before surgery. I still losing an average of 10lb a month, I don't know how long this will last, also I am right around four months pregnant, which is a shock for me, I was on depo shot and I already have a big family four children already, but that is the way god wants it, so no complaints from me. I am so glad that I had this surgery done. if I don't lose another pound I will be happy.

Hi all~~
It's officially my one year anniversary~~and OH what a year it's been. I couldn't be happier with what this weight loss has done for me. I feel like I'm alive!
I took a graduate course this year~~I had put it off for several years because I didn't think I fit in the desks. It was sooo much fun being on campus again. I feel like I have sooo many more opportunities ahead of me.
I'm more active with my family. My hubby and I even went to Jamaica to celebrate~~I would never get on an airplane before cuz I wasn't comfortable sitting in the seats or goin to the bathroom--CRAZY I know.
I'm not so tired anymore~~
I'm soo happy I did this!!
Best wishes to all of you!!
