Topic: hello all
Hello all sorry it has taken me so long to get on here and post something but my computer was down for a while and with me going back to work and everything have not had alot of time till now.
I just wanted to say that I cant believe that it has been 4 months now and im down to 210. I was so excited the other day when I put i pair of 14 jeans on and could button them and wear them.
I am feeling so good and looking for some people to talk to that are in the same boat as me so anyone out there interested in chatting.
And I have a question how much are all you able to eat cause Im still not eating alot of food sometime not any at all so is this normal are others having this problem or just me.
thanks all
Topic: RE: Don't You Just Love Those Plateaus
You have all my simpathy on the plateau issue. My surgery was June 9, 2003, I started at 300lbs, am 5'8" and so far have lost 79lbs. Overall I am very happy with the weight loss but the plateaus are still hard to take, and for some reason they happen at the most inconvenient places, why couldn't I have one at 80lbs, not 79? Greedy I guess, but it is still frustrating.

Topic: RE: Don't You Just Love Those Plateaus
My surgery was June 2 and I've lost 57, so I'm behind everyone who has posted. I have had plateaus and one week I spent the entire week losing the 4 lbs that appeared from nowhere. The last 3 days I dropped 4 lbs - I have given up worrying about it. I am so happy with the way I look (and getting vain). If I can average 10 lbs a month for the first year I'll meet my goals. Also, now when I tell how much I've lost I add the 10 lbs I lost prior to my surgery; let's face it, those lbs were much harder to lose, so I'm taking credit. Call me Happy and down 68 lbs!

Topic: RE: 6/24 Surgery & trouble eating...
I hear you! I am now 3 months out and there are times when I just can't be bothered to eat. Just no appetite. Never thought that I would ever be feeling that. I also eat peanut butter with a lowfat cracker. I also use the smaller Detour bars at 15g of protein each. They are the best protein bars around. The taste is almost like a candy bar. There are larger ones that are 30g but the smaller ones can be found at WalMart for under $2 each. Hope this information helps.

Topic: RE: 7 week out and slow loser
Hello Becky,
My name is Brenda Holmes I am a slow loser also, I had my surgery 06/09/2003 I have only lost 62lbs. I do not exercise like I should and it is hard for me to get in all my protein. However, I have increased my water intake this week and I am exercising 3 day a week, and I lost 4lbs this week. Just be encouraged and dont let it get you down. I sometimes feel that everyone else is losing faster than me but I know that I have to break my bad habits of not putting my body in motion.
