Hi there guys, Happy Sunday to everyone. I hope I find everyone in good spirits and good health. Now here is just what I have been thinking ..... Is this honeymoon over for losing weight or is it just me? I have lost and have come to goal just a few weeks ago. I started my journey at 245 lbs. I am 5ft6. I am now 132 lbs and it seems I just can't do anymore. I am happy with my -113 lbs.I am now a size 6 or 8. I have an appointment on December 3rd for my 1 year anniversary. He should be happy. He wanted me to be 130lbs which I seem to think is just too thin for my 5ft6 frame. How is everyone doing with their weight loss, as your anniversary approaches. Have a great day. Enjoy life and Peace to all. Lets Our special day is coming & Lorraine

Hi Lorraine.... I know what you mean. I am still losing and am currently at -119 lbs. I am pleased a*****h with my weight loss and really don't mind if I don't lose anymore. My plastic surgeon said I would lose 10pounds after a TT so that would really put me over the top on goal weight. Last month I think I lost 4 pounds and so far this month its been 2 pounds. I had someone today that I know tell me I was looking too thin. I too wonder how long will I keep losing but only time will tell....! karie

I lost another pound before Thanksgiving. I seriously did not want to get below 120 but I now weigh 118. Size 2's are hard to find as well as my new bra size (32C). I'm anxious to hear what the surgeon says when I go for a visit on 12/16. Don't get me wrong.......I'm not complaining. I just want to stabilize. LuvitsunnyV@goal

I haven't lost anything since August, and am still about 50lbs above my target weight, but I don't think any more is going to come off. I was watching a show on Discovery Health yesterday about 12 folks who had gastric bypass and most of them didn't loose the weight they had hoped, so I guess I'm one of those. And they all had the same problem, being able to eat more than they should. Portion control was my main reason for the surgery, but, boy, can I still eat. I can eat an entire sandwitch, with a hadful of soy chips on the side at a meal. But that is still much less than I used to be able to eat, so I am not complaining. I'm going to try a couple of days on a liquid diet to see if I can shrink the pouch again. Don't know if that will happen, or even if I can do it, but I'm going to try. Nona

The only weight I have lost is from the stomach flu. I have been stuck at 145 since June. Now with the help from a nasty little bug, I am at 142. Don't know if it will stay off or come right back on. I am thinking positive. I am 5ft 2in and I am still considered obese. My Dad told me that I was looking too thin and frail. I said, Daddy, anybody would look frail when they are pucking and well you know . My Mom asked me if I was loosing anymore. I told her about how I wasn't loosing and I have been at this same weight for about 5 months now. She was happy. They are parents and are worried. They have never seen me "thin" and are not used to it. Gotta love them for caring. Never have they been nonsupportive. I don't think that my stomach is stretched. I can only eat about half of a ham a cheese sandwich, one slice of pizza or a half of a can of soup (found out that this week...LOL). I just think that I have gotten out of my routine of walking or excersicing like I used to. Have a nice day! Rhonda 225/142 (for now)

I have been sitting around 155 for a month now. I was really hoping to get to 149 by the 29th of Dec for my 1 year anniversary but I don't think it is going to happen unless I change things up. AND I am toooo lazy to do that... I will get there eventually. I am looking for another 15 lbs. That gives a me bigger cushion for clothing sizes when things run small. Wearing mostly Med tops but ended up with a L winter coat (need room for bulkly sweaters) I could zip the M coats but it was very tight in the hips. I got on size 10 Reg stretchy cords at Kohl's but remain a solid 14P otherwise. I know the weight has slowed down tremendously but I feel that my body shape is still changing despite the scale refusing to move. I need to take measurements again.... I have 1 month til my anniversary...maybe the weight loss gods will give me that 6 pound loss I "need" !!!!!

I think my honeymoon is over a couple of weeks ago I gained three pounds but I quickly squashed that by upping my exrcise and paying attention to what I eat. I am 128lbs right now and the max I ever want to be is 130lbs I know that I am going to have to keepon track to keep those numbers. Tommorro is my one year anniversary so I am praying that next years is just as rewarding
