Hi Ladies! I'm having another one of those rough periods. I'm up a couple pounds from last week, although my inches have gone down. I'm now sitting at 95.8 lbs. Is this battle ever going to end for me?

I feel like this journey is over and I will remain at this weight and be doomed to obesity for the rest of my life. I'm sick of this! Why does it keep stopping? Is this another program that I am going to fail at?

Does anyone else feel this way? I'm so depressed!!!!

I asked my surgeon about the very same thing and she said it is 100% normal and is an adjustment thing that our bodies are going through that the blood rushes so much faster through the veins and to be more careful so that we don't lose our balace because I was quite worried but she reasured me it was normal and also to make sure that I keep up with the water but that it is unavoidable to happen. cheri

Hi there

I have also noticed this happening, like someone else said, just when I'm sitting and I stand up quickly. It happened all the time right after surgery but it got better but it has started again in the past couple of months. I sometimes get lightheaded when I first get out of bed in the morning. It is scary, I've never passed out before and I don't want to start now! I like this advice about the dehydration thing, I need to be getting in more fluids anyway so this will give me even more reason to get my butt in gear

Wooo-hooo! Yay for us!!! Congrats, Barb! I know it's just a number, but it's just so darn cool to hit 100 for some reason. I've been giddy about it all day long.

Tracy, I can't remember the exact size of one, but I think your pouch would let you know if it was to much. Listen to your body. I went to TB's website and got the nutrional value of it. I did it for a beef one.
