Congratulations! You've done a great job! I still track my protein, calories (sometimes), and take my vitamins and drink water. Those are awesome lifelong habits to keep. I also love peanut butter . . . I'm a real junkie for it and have a hard time having it in the house . . . lol. I tried PB2, but it's just not the same. I tolerate almost everything well, with the exception of raw carrots. I have to be careful there.

Yay, Jan. That's great to hear. I haven't made my 2 year follow up yet because I need to get another referral to do my blood work, but I hope to report good news in the near future!
Keep up the good work!

Happy Surgiversary, everyone!!! Especially to my Twinsys, Christine & Crystal. We're are all doing well.
I started this journey at 300lbs, the lowest I got was around 178, and now I'm normally sitting around 185. I just had a bad bowel obstruction and was around 192, but the doc said I was going to lose 8 lbs by the time I was done, hahaha.
My goal is to be back at 179. Don't ask me why 180 won't do, hahaha. I just want 179.
Hope everyone is doing well, congrats to all and keep it up!

Hi all,
My surgery was the 20th, tomorrow Sunday.. 2 years ago.... can't believe it! Started out at 213 now I am 127... no problems what so ever... went clothes shopping today and it always surprises me that I went from a 24/26 to a 4/6....
I take my protein daily, vitamins, and drink tha****er. Havent missed pop, I guess the only thing different is I can't tolerate meat or chicken, watermelon, strawberries.
But I dont miss any of them..I developed a fondness for pnut butter, oatmeal and rice cakes. Who knew? My job requires a lot of walking, lots...so I get plenty of exercise.
happy days to all of us in July! Congrats to everyone in July!

Pre-op 267, pre-pregnancy 148, currently 178 at 37 weeks pregnant and having contractions! So I've had a healthy 30lb weight gain with the pregnancy. My nurse practitioner is 5 years post-op and says that I've gained perfectly, baby is a normal size, and she is confident that I'll get all of the baby weight off.
Today is my 2 yr surgiversary!
Congrats guys!
