Topic: RE: how are we doing all
Well I am not losing as well as most of you but I am halfway to goal so I won't be complaining. I feel so much better. I can wear some 12's depending on who makes it but some 16's still fit so I will call it a 14. I am short so it isn't that small. I just hope I continue to lose even if it is slow. I have had a four week stall and a few week stalls. I guess I need to exersice more. I am glad you are all doing well.

Topic: RE: HAS ANYONE ELS HAD A STALL...
I was beginning to think that I would be the only one in WLS history to NOT lose any weight! I GAINED 12 pounds from day of surgery to my one week doctor visit. My jaw fell to the floor!
I just couldn't seem to get off the ground loosing the pounds. After a 4 week stall I contacted the nutritionist who analyzed my food diary and told me I was eating between 280-600 calories a day. She said my body was in starvation mode and shutting down. I had to eat more calories to lose weight. That went against every grain in my body. For once I don't feel like eating, and now I'm told I have to eat more!
Since then I've been getting in 800 a day and have started to lose some weight. I'm relieved to see that I'm not alone in what's happening to me. I hope the rest of you are doing well now!

It's either encouraging or very depressing to know that we all had our surgery around the same time and have all stopped losing weight at the same time. I haven't lost an ounce the entire month of February. 
Topic: RE: The Daily Plate
I sent you a friend request on the Daily Plate. You are really close to my surgery date and weight loss. Great to meet you!
151lbs lost since surgery. 36lbs pre-surgery !
Total today is = 187lbs lost !!!
Topic: RE: how are we doing all
I'm doing well. I had minor surgery yesterday ... I had the essure procedure (permanent birth control, but it was done under general anesthesia). had no problems and no pain. Now I have to wait 3 months to see if my tube is completely blocked. Weight loss is going well. I'm losing 3-2 pounds a week and I'm happy with that. Down 55 pounds, 49 left (I think, my ticker has the number from last sunday). I haven't had any stalls. I had my 3 month labs the other day and the nurse called me yesterday and said my potassium is way down, so they are putting me on pills for that. I don't know if the rest of the results came in, I go in Tuesday to see the surgeon so I will find out if there is anything else wrong then. That's about it for now. :)
Topic: RE: 5 K Walk/Run Anyone?
I just did a 5K walk on Feb 7th. My husband was supposed to do the run with the military, but they allowed him to do the walk with me. It was great. I had a blast. I did it in 56 minutes.
