Topic: RE: I'm so discouraged
Hi Diane,
I think you're right about giving ourselves deadlines. What I have to remember is that I didn't gain the weight overnight and I won't lose it all overnight. The support I receive from everyone on the site has helped me to take the pressure off myself.
Thanks,
Sonya
Topic: 1 yr and 1 day.
Boy time flies when you're having fun. I'm 1yr and 1 day post-op. I saw my surgeon today and everything is good. I'm down 152lbs only a 6lb loss in 3 months, my last visit with thim. I was bummed because I was hoping for more. But I guess it's better than nothing. He said there is nothing to be bummed out, i've exceed all expectations. He said that I have lost something like 73% of my body weight, an average that usually is met 2yrs after surgery. So i'm doing good.
Also, I saw the nutritionist. We still have to come up with a plan for me to eat more protein. It's hard to do. Anyway, she was pleased as well.
I promise I will post a pic soon as I get one taken. I have to show off soon, so where better than here.
Thanks all for listening. Happy Birthday/Anniversary to anyone upcoming. I'm going to celebrate mine tonight.
Love you all,
Lisa J. in Mass

Hi Sonya,
I'm so in the same boat. I cruise this site looking for support every day! I feel like I eat too much, yet according to fitday.com, I'm doing well (less than 1000 calories), and I log every bite I put in my mouth, including 1 kernel of popcorn. My plateau is now 12 weeks long, and I exercise 4-5 times a week. I hurt from so much exercise! I don't feel so alone now that I've read these posts. My "surgiversary" is Nov. 7, so I think the 'deadline' thing is what's stressing me out this week. I'm so thrilled with what I've lost, but hope this is not the end.

Thanks Erin. Look at all the weight you lost and then to gain it back so quick in a husband form. So how is married life treating you?
