Topic: RE: Stalls in weight, but how about measurments/inches??
I have a chart of most of my measurements since surgery. It's at the bottom of my profile page. I began working with a personal trainer who took more measurements and I added those to my chart.
In the last four months I've lost about 7 inches around my shoulders. I don't have that rounded look anymore....I actually have shoulders. I've also lost quite a few inches from my hips, they're disappearing.
At my last measurement I had gained a 1/2 inch in my abs and my trainer has been killing me with ab crunches ever since!
Topic: RE: Weekly weigh in...
I am down 64 since surgery and down 72 total.
Starting to move again it appears!

Oh wow - You have done fantastic with your weight loss! The mind games are terrible. It's how you feel and your health that counts. Not so much the "number" of weight or the "number" of sizes. I'm sure you feel so much better! I know I DO!
Topic: RE: Stalls in weight, but how about measurments/inches??
I lose "sizes" verrrrry slowly. I've lost 130 pounds: went from a 34w to a 28 pre-op (68 pounds), but only gone from a size 26-28 to a 24 (60 pounds) since July's RNY.
My fat is very "fluffy." Large in volume but kinda light and mousse-like-- if that makes any sense. So at 240 pounds, I'm still wearing 26s...and I am 5'5". Annoying!
Topic: RE: 100 Pounds Gone
I know the feeling. As of this morning, I'm down 101 pounds... Feel's great doesn't it?
Congratulations!!!!!!!!

Topic: RE: Hair Loss- make it stop
My hair started falling out at 3 months out. Now at 5 months out, it's still "shedding" like crazy. I was like you, I had thick, beautiful hair. Now it's thin, I've never had thin hair before. Never.... It does scare me, but other stell me that it will stop around 8 months out and come back even thicker than before. I take biotin, but doesn't seem to help any. Hopefully it'll stop falling out soon. If not we might need a start a new support group for hair loss... LOL
Good Luck

Topic: Stalls in weight, but how about measurments/inches??
I thought since we seem to be a stall I thought we may could find a bright side to things and talk about inches lost. Have you taken measurments, lately? I did and I couldn't believe it!!
I'd love to hear how everyone else is doing!!!
I posted in my profile my stats and I have a few pictures in there too.
