Topic: RE: Only 10 lbs lost in 4 months!

Stacy, Hi! My surgery was Oct 14, 04, weighed 276lbs at that time. I have lost 73lbs since surgery. Make sure you drink lots of water. Don't drink anything with sugar or any type of carbonated drinks. I have also slowed down with my weight lost, but I'm not worried. Your body will go in and out of plateaus. I have gone from a size 26-28 to an 18. Remember when you exercise you gain muscle and muscle adds weight so you're gaining weight but you are losing inches and fat. "Look at your weight loss in a different light. Hang in there!

Leslie,

Congrats, so proud of you. Know how you feel, I hit the 104 lbs lost about a week ago and I am still in awe. Down from a size 26-28 to a 18. Do not look or feel like the same person. Keep up the good work, you're melting away.

Topic: RE: OCTOBER ROLL CALL

Hi, Sheryl thanks so much for doing the roll call. It is great to hear how well everyone is doing no matter how much you have lost. It is nice to see what the average weight loss is for everyone so that if you want to you can figure out if there is something else you can do to better yourself. I started swimming 2 days a week doing 40-50 olympic laps and started doing an ab workout, which i dont like to try to tighten my tummy

My highest weight (that I know of) March 2004 440 pounds Surgery date: 10/19/2004 360 pounds Weigh in on 3/8/05 (I weigh in on Tuesdays) 261 pounds 99 lbs since surgery 179 lbs since 03/04 My success is because I have followed the clinics instructions. The clinic I go to has a pretty conservative eating plan, (which I am glad for). I go to the Y 5 to 6 days a week. I attend every support group, drink all my water. I knew this was going to be a mental challenge as well as physical, and have gone through some low points, but am really glad I had the surgery. Continued success to everyone. Jean W.
