Topic: RE: 3 month check-up
Not to sound like a copycat - but I'm closing in on 3 months as well - and I was on a mild bp med prior to surgery. Haven't checked my pressure, my check-up isn't for another couple of weeks.
Down 49.5 since surgery, 76 total since my "high" point last July.
How is everyone "feeling"? I can't believe the enormous difference it's made in my energy - I've been able to walk around doing holiday shopping for hours at a time - haven't done that in a couple of years!!
Topic: RE: Tracking your food?
Yep, track all food, using RemedyMD. Keeps track of everything for me, and still shows I am having too many carbs. Trying to fix that, but still having a tough time!

Every day.
I track everything, except for things like mustard or ketchup...I don't use much of them anyway.
I use nutridiary.com They track sugars, where fitday doesn't.
I track after each meal...I have become a fanatic about it.
I also track on nutridiary my water intake, vitamins and pepcid, weight and exercise.

Topic: RE: Hair today - gone tomorrow?
I am shedding like my pooch!!!!! I have really thick hair anyways so it doesn't look bad. But I have lost 70 lbs so far and I get all my protein plus some in a day. What I don't get is enough liquids. SOOOOO maybe its getting dried out. If it starts to look bad I think I am going to get a perm........................maybe.

I am the same WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am scared to death! I had my surgery on 9/14 and I have lost about 70 lbs. BUT I eat very well (most of the time). Sugar bothered me at first and I only found that out by accident. Life cereal is NOT good for you! LOL but, as time went by I tried different things only to realize nothing bothers me. SO instead of enjoying myself, I worry worry worry some more that I am going to sabotage myself. What can we do about this? I was journaling and then stopped for about 3 weeks. I picked it back up yesterday because of this very issue! I don't want to gain it back, and I want to be healthy! SO good luck to you and good luck to me..........we are bound to succeed!!!!!!!!!!

I am at 61 lbs and holding for now. Been stagnant for about 2 weeks. I am off my bp meds and 2 of my RA meds. Feel great, I actually ran with my 5 yr old granddaughter!

Laura,
My 3 month checkup will be 12/18... I'm having the same issues with standing up feeling light headed and once in a while seeing stars when I stand (especially after I get out of the hot tub at the gym). So I'll bet low blood pressure is my issue too (I never had cholesterol or BP issues before).... We'll see. I'm down 75lbs since 2 weeks prior to surgery, feeling great.
Congrats to you on the weight loss, keep up the good work!
