I was told by my Dr. and several others that we will over lose and gain a little back up. 10-20 lbs. is the number I was given. I had lost a total of 179 lbs taking me down to 135 but have gained back 5 lbs. I have been fighting not to gain any more. I like my new size and don't want to give it up. Melissa

Honey be glad it is olnly 6 lbs I gained almost 50. you are doing fine and it will come back off

Has anyone not reached their goals?? I know that sounds like a crazy question, but we always here about the people who have reached their goals, but I havent. I'll be honest, I have really fell off the band wagon. I am eating too much too often. I really need to get back on track, but I just cant seem to do it. I am not drinking my water, because I actually feel horribly dehydrated, and I am not getting all my protein in (although I am getting pretty close because I am tired of loosing my hair). I have good intentions, but I just can't get motivated. Am I having a problem, or is other people out there feeling this way too??? Cara (ps.....I have lost 133lbs, still 100lbs to go)

Okay, I know that I am a few days early but June will be here before you know it!! How did you do with your goals for May? What are your goals for the month of June? Your goals can be weight loss related or personal goals. This is both post ops and pre ops. Over all I did pretty good with my goals for May. I did very well with my workouts but my eating was not really the best. This was due to me suffering from migraines that were so intense that they cause me to . Last week was a alot better so hopefully the worst is over. For the month of June, I will continue to increase the intensity of my workouts. Summer is fastly approaching and you know I got to look Diamond
