Hi everyone, great job to all of you. I had surgery on 10/29, lost 15 prior to surgery and have lost 35 since for 50 total. I thought it was a little slow but my surgeon said I was right on track for my starting weight. Happy New Year to ALL.

Topic: RE: 2005 New Year resolutions ....

You are so right, this year I don't have to resolve to lose weight and diet, because I am already well on my way! I think my resolutions will be to EXERCISISE more, like you, keep my finances in better order, keep my home more organized, and to be a kinder person(all my friends say I am already a very kind person, but I don't always feel that way...) You know that old saying, "what you are doing at midnight is what you will be doing for the rest of the year"(or something along those lines), I hope it isn't true because I will be working... bartending on the craziest night of the year! I hope everyone has a wonderful new year, and remember we have a lot to be thankful for... there are many people just beginning their frustrating journey to have their surgery and we are past it and on the losing side! Have a great day! Amber

Hi. I am a little over 10 weeks post-op and as of today I weigh in at 241. The day of surgery I weighed 304, so that is a total of 63lbs. Sometimes I feel that it is going so slow, but then I put it into perspective... 63lbs in less than 3 months! I could have never done that without my surgery! Congratulations to us all! Have a wonderful New Year! Amber

Topic: RE: How much protien?

I got it from my dietician as well as members on the main board. not sure where they got it though. I too only manage to get in about 60g a day and I need 96 based on that rule of thumb
