I had surgery on the 6th .... last Monday when I weighed I had lost 97 lbs I believe. But I've been out of town ... and also having marriage problems -- so I havent weighed since then. Gosh, I could be in the century club and just dont know it!!! My weight loss has really slowed down. I got weighed and measured the other day where I work out -- and in the past month I have only lost 7 lbs. ....sigh.... Susan

My marriage cant take it either. My husband says he regrets me ever having the surgery, now, and that I have just changed way too much. He says I am acting selfish, and like I am some sort of "God". He says everything is always about me, me me.... ...which couldnt be further from the truth. I dont understand why he feels that way. And of course, now his friends have all been brainwashed by him, and his family too. So I feel very alienated from all of them. I have filed for divorce ... but then 2 days later he finds out, starts crying and just cant take it. He wants us to try the separation thing first, and give it 3-5 months -- time for us to get bills caught up etc., and then see what happens after that. So I will...I am moving out and going to my mothers. He is moving out end of this week and going to his mothers. (Thank God for mothers, huh?) Its been BAD. I heard that this sort of thing can happen to marriages after weight loss surgery -- just never thought it would happen to ME! Susan 288/190/??

Hi! Ann, You're looking good. Congrats to your weight loss and continued successful journey. I too am now 6 months out. Loss 87lbs since surgery, 121 lbs since I started this journey and down from a size 26/28 to a 18/16. Can't believe the changes in me and if I did not loose anymore weight, I would not care, I am healthier and happier today than I have been in years. Keep up the good work and may god bless you and yours in your new life journey with great changes and blessing and true happiness; a new you!

Hi Ann and congratulation on the wonderful weight-loss. Was just reading through the things you are grateful for and I couldn't agree more. And also, how about that self confidence??? Guess it wasn't as overrated as I so often told myself Anyway, just wanted to say that you look great Best from (now) sunny Iceland Kolla 304/198/140

My surgery was Oct 22. I weigh 175. My pre-surgery weight was 260 so I've lost 85 lbs. My weight loss has definitely slowed down too but I'm sooo happy with the loss so far. I'd really be happy to just stay here. Although it would mean something to me to lose the next 15 and be in the century club. It may take me to the end of summer but I'm hoping to get there. Patty -85
