Its been forever since we all connected on here. Looks like several of us are having the same issue,,a littlebit of gain! Heres mine,, Highest wt- 325 Lowest weight- 193 Current weight-204 Goal weight- 185 The winter inactivity wreaked havoc with me, and now Im having a real battle with my self getting started back into a routine. Maybe with the summer weather and walking it will kick back in...I know Im terrified of regain! I have seen several friends go through that and I dont want to be another statistic! I keep track of my intake on fitday most days, but some days I get so tired of that! Oh well,,its a fact of life from now on, so may as well accept that. Lets work it! Blessings Betsy

Goal weight 150 Total gained 27lbs Between my mom having Cancer, and me being stressed and my surgery I gained even more! Now its time to get back to basics!!

Hey! I went to see my dear Dr. DeWitt this past Tuesday for a post surgical check-up. I had been experiencing some pretty bad nausea over the past six months or so, to the point to where I was pretty much staying at home sleeping because it was the only way to make myself not feel icky....I was also having to take lots of phenergan and ambien to help me sleep. Dr. DeWitt went in exploratory at the end of Jan and cleared some scar adhesions and a small hyrnia. I am feeling much better, even though I still battle some nausea...I believe it is something that I will always battle, but the little purple pill is my friend and helping! I found it odd, though...that this was my first time seeing some weight gain, I was actually 216 at his office, when I am normally around 212...it was in the afternoon and I was having my monthly cycle....does anyone else experience that much of a weight difference during their cycle? Just wanted to reassure myself, or start really cutting back and exercising hard....Don't wanna gain weight 2 1/2 years after surgery! ~~emily

I am trying to just not gain weight...I'm happy with my size, and weight (for me) is just a number...so, as long as I am staying around where I am, I'm happy....even though my initial goal was 175. Surgery Date: 9/15/2005 Highest weight: 325 Lowest weight: 201 (I think) Current weight: 210 Goal: not to gain! Christine, thanks for keeping us accountable! ~~emily
