Thanks everybody for the replys and the boost of encouragement. I am happy to say today is the 9th and I am down 35 lbs. I am at 183 and hopefully more because I just started yesterday. Thanks for everything...huggggss to you all. Cherish Menard-Louisiana 218/183

I also had my RNY (open) on the 9th of June--I am down 36lbs, and happy for it, to be honest. It is the most I have ever lost in my life, that is for sure! And in 9 weeks! However, I need to do more protein, more water, and MORE exercise, but in general I do pretty well. I knew it would be a slow process, but I think I would like to see it happen more quickly and I put that responsibility on myself more than anything. It just takes time--we didn't gain it all in one month and won't lose it in one month either. I hope you feel encouraged, and proud of how far you have come already--when you look back on this next year, you will be surprised at how quickly the time passed! Hang in there!
