Hi I had my open rny on 9/26/05 362/250/150 I am down 44lbs since surgery.I have been stalled for almost 3 weeks.It finally broke and I have lost 4 more pounds.I was at 322 for almost 3 weeks and I am now down to 318.So I was frustrated but am now happy again lol Michelle

I had my surgery on 9/9/2005 - 10 weeks I am down 61 lbs. I am very happy

Happy, even though I'm a slow one! Almost 9 weeks out... 215/185/120 amy

Happy and frustrated! Lost 38 pounds since my surgery date Sept 7th and 74 pounds total since July. I wish I were losing faster, but I'm losing as fast as my body wants me to lose. I do love being able to wear some of my old clothes (good thing I saved them). It saves having the buy them in between losing. PreOp 298, Date of surgery:262, Current:224 and counting... Hugs all!

I am 8 weeks out and I am happy with my weight loss on most days. 281/236/150 I am down 45 pounds so far. I have had a few stalls and then BAM I lose 5 pounds in a week. Christine

Starting out: 297 Preop: 256 Now: 215 Goal: 155 It's neat to be fitting in cuter clothes. I'm having a blast with shopping.

Im down 41 from the surgery and 48 from the initial consultation... Not bad I think Happier because I just got off a LONGGGGG plateau

Lets see... Highest: 282 Day of WLS: 276 Current: 224 so I've lost 52 pounds sine 9/12. I hit a week long stall evey month which is anoying but oh well. And right now with my TOM I've gain and lost the same 3 pounds for the last 3 days.. again oh well. I'd say Im 99% HAPPY but I admit I get fustrated. I have food envey.. but when that happens I go to the mall and try on new clothing.. Let me tell you even though it was snug fittign into the size 14 skirt this week felt SOOOOO good! I gota clean out my closets now!!!! Erin

Erin, You are doing wonderful we are the same weight. I am 224 today. I was 272 I am on a stall this week. People are telling me I dont need to lose any more weight. What little do they know I still have alot to go. If your like me you are feeling very good and starting to feel really happy again. Take Care Barb

Hi there, Tomorrow is my 8 week mark and I gotta say it has been rather disappointing so far. First two weeks lost 14 pounds. Now it is week 8 and I am lucky if I have lost 1-2 pounds A WEEK since then. I have lost a total of 27 pounds since the surgery. That is the least amount of weight of anybody I have seen on these message boards. Just joined a gym so I hope that helps. Getting kinda bummed. I have read all about stalls and plateau's but it just seems like mine is longer and not getting any better. Thanks for listening Mary
