How is everyone? Michelle

Hi Michelle... I started on 9/9 at 300 and the scale this morning said 248...it's not as much as I would like but it's the most I've ever lost so I will not complain. As far as food goes...I don't really eat...I have no desire for food...I drink my protein shakes and go to the gym 5 nights a week. I bought myself a "gazelle" machine and do that for 15 minutes in the morning and 15 mins at night...seems to be working for me thanx for asking! Linda

Hi Wow 52lbs!!!!!!!! Congrats!!!! Keep up the good work! 5 nights a week? Wow! I need to start doing that! Again congrats!!! Daisys Owner aka Michelle

Hi Michelle, I had open RNY on 9/26/05 as well. Started at 258 and down to 215 now. I have released 43lbs ( I wont say loss or loose - because tht means you might find it and I REFUSE TO FIND THOSE!!!!) Food wise - it sucks!! I am still having a very hard time eating or drinking anything and I do not have a stricture. Everything gets STUCK and then I am miserable for a long time or I vomit to get rid of it. Even fluids get stuck. As for exercising - not good there either. Just have not had nor made the time to do it. Anne-Marie

Lap RNY on 9/19/05 Down 68.5lbs since surgery, and 91.5lbs since my highest recorded weight ever. I'm pretty happy so far, just hope I can keep up the pace fast enough to reach goal in a year.

I had surgery 9/20 and now down from 301.5 to 257.5.....44 pounds Food wise - the only thing I've had problems with is scrambled eggs. Other than that nothing bothers me.

Hi, Open RNY on 9/28/05 Started at 330...lost 19 prior to surgery...am now at 272. Total lost, 58... Am down from 30/32's all summer to 22/24 tops and 26 in pants. Am eating all foods without much prob. Had a bad "stomach" day yesterday and wasn't sure what caused diarrahea and vomitting...if it was a "dump" or not. Gotta go out today and find something to wear for Thanksgiving. Paula

Hi all!! We are in North Carolina visiting family for the Thanksgiving week. My eating has lapsed some, my mother-in-love fixed homemade chicken and dumplin's last night, and I admit that I ate more dumplin's than I should have, but they were wonderful!!!! I had lap RNY on 9/15, was 325 and am down to 283 now, down about 41 lbs. Most I've ever lost and I am thrilled about it! I hope to be down 50 - 60 lbs around Christmas!! ~~em

Hi everyone I had Lap RNY 9/30/05 and started at 265 (lost 8 lbs before surgery) and I'm now down to 230. I'm down 35 pounds since surgery and 43 pounds total. I'm thrilled about the loss, but know I'm a bit on the slower side. Kristine
