Wow, Sarinda!! Congratulations!!!
I'm curious what kind of 'preventive' measures you were using. LOL Actually I'm only asking because of the rumors I've heard about birth control pills.
Have you checked out the yahoo or MSN web site for pregnancy after WLS??
Best wishes to you and your family,
Michelle -115.5

Hi Carol,

Don't fret over that. We all have peaks and valleys. Your body is adjusting to the new weight and now you have to in your habits as weel. I had a 2 1/2 month plateau. I was 323 at consult, 299 day of surgerya and I am now 165. At my plateau I was 179 and then I got sick and had no appetite. DRINK YOUR WATER. While I was sick that is all I wanted to drink and the weight was falling off. You will be fine and don't compare your results to other people.

Hiya Brandi! I think my computer must have been gonzo on April 14 to miss two comments! Thanks for the luck...will need it. I think I'm at my monthly stall right now, which is always frustrating. But so it goes.

Gosh, Michelle, sorry I missed your comment! I don't check the boards as frequently as I probably should, but then, with two jobs and school, you know how it is. Anyway, thanks for responding!

Hiya, Jennipher! Congrats on your weight loss as well! Isn't it funny? You are right where I want to eventually be! I know we each have our own agenda....what's your goal weight?

Hello Carlyce,
first of all, sorry for my bad english but I only learned it in school in germany.
So, I had surgery in July as well and I lost 100 pounds so far. My starting weight was about 344 pound. I am happy with my loosing an I hope it will going on with that. I am also not glad that it is not more weight so far - but then I have to remember myself that the last time I was on this weigth before I have been 18 years old - an now I am 34. So - I think we can be happy with that.

YEAH!!!!! Way to go. Good for you. I am still not offically a member of the century club. According to my PCP weigh in pre-op I have lost 104 but as far as the surgeon weigh in I am down 95. The cold thing is pretty annoying, but like you said I would take that anyday.

Congrats on the loss. I have not been quite as lucky with the water. I do enjoy it, but have not been so good about drinking it. I had surgery on July 15, 2003. My stats are as follows
Height: 5'6"
Pre-op 278 or PCP weigh in 287
Current weight: 181 ish

I feel your pain. My dr just told me that my window of weight loss is coming to an end. I had my surgery in July as well. I thought that it was 18 also. I feel saddened to know that I may not make my goal weight, but you have to remember that what you have accomplished so far is wonderful. My son is 60 pounds and I can not pick him up anymore. Imagine if I was still carrying around the 95 that I have since lost. WOW your body is thanking you in ways you do not even know. Best of luck to reach your goal. You will make it.
