I am halfway to goal and feel great. I've lost 52.5 and have 52 left. I haven't stalled ... yet. I'm just losing slowly but surely. I'm down from 3X to XL and down from 26/28 jeans to 16/18.

I had my 3 month check today.  Labs are all good.  I have had no hair loss.  I lost 25lbs pre-op and have lost 51.5 lbs since surgery. 

I am exercising an hour a day six days a week.  I am so tired in the evenings I often go to bed before 8pm and sleep until 6am. 

I have had 2 weeks with 0 loss.  Not in a row. 

My NP said I may have to increase my exercise and change it up if I plan on making my 54 more pounds to go to hit my six month goal.

I have had some days that I am hungrier since ramping up my exercise.  My hormones are off and though I take a shot to stop my period, I have had two in the last 3 months.

I tolerate most foods well, but not salmon.  I have to avoid eating when I am stressed, or things get stuck.

Beef jerkey is my favorite food right now. Goes down well and has a ton of protein.

I am having at least two bowel movements a day.

I think that is about it.  I wish you all the best.

Hey all...just posting to check in at the 3 month mark

Started at -  347
surgery date - 331
Current - 272

So that's 16 pounds pre-op, and 59 pounds post-op which makes for a total of 75 lbs total...
I have gone from a 30-32 to a 20-22, I work out 3-5 times a week and I feel great.  Im kind of stuck in the 270's but Im working on it.  I have stalled with my shakes but Im working hard to get back on track with them.  I haven't had any hair loss and very few bouts of sickness due to food or dumping...so I must say that Im blessed.  

Ill be going to see my Dr. on march 13th and Ill post to let everyone know how that went.

down 43 pounds!  No stalls yet, but I am losing very slowly.  I am frustrated looking at people who started close to my weight (226 LBS).  But, I am losing in the normal range of 20 pounds the first month, and then 10 pounds for every month after. 

Blessings, Tami

 14 weeks out now, and I'm down 109 Since surgery and 115 overall.  I feel so much better!  I can't wait for the next 100 pounds!

My stall has become a dead STOP.  I haven't lost so much as an ounce for a month.  I'm doing everything right, so it's becoming quite depressing.

I had my surgery on November 11, 2009. I have lost 30 lbs. on a liquid diet 4 weeks before the surgery and I am now down 91 lbs. total.  The weight has been coming off so fast it is hard to complain that I might have stalled, however, the last couple of weeks it seems like just a couple pounds a week rather than the "BIG" numbers.

It seems like we are all doing well and are happy with our choice to have the surgery.
