Topic: WOW Moments....
I received a chart from my surgeon's office in the mail last week, that shows what my BMI was last year before surgery and what it is now....my measurements...my blood pressure...etc.... I think the most amazing was my measurements.....My wasit measurement last year (1 week before surgery) was 51 inches.....(I'm 5'3) and that means that I was almost as wide as I am tall last year!!!! Well, this year, my waist measurement is 36 inches!!!!!!!!! My son was absolutely amazed! He kept saying, "Mom, there is no way you were 51 inches around your waist!" He always felt I was perfect just the way I was!!!! My sister gave me a pair of dress pants this past Spring, Size 10. I thought, there is no way on earth I am ever going to wear those!!! Well, for some reason last night, I held up those pants and still thought there was no way I was going to be able to wear them....Well, guess what I am wearing at work today?!?! YEP!! Those Size 10 dress pants!! Life is good..... Had to share....hope you don't mind.... Hugs, Holly

Hi Patty, Sorry to hear you are depressed. That's not a pleasant way to feel. Would you want to say more about what's going on? There could be all sorts of reasons for your rate of weight loss and your current plateau. Perhaps if you told us more, we could make suggestions...where did you start out and how much have you lost? What do you eat? What sort of exercise do you do? How old are you? What's going on in your life? Lisa
