Happy Sunday to all!

Hi there to all my friends here! How is everyone doing? I sure hope you guys are fine and enjoying your lives, to all you and your sucess of WLS over the year. I am fine,feeling great and having little trouble digesting food. I suffered a long time and that is over. I now know my body, when I am full and when to stop. I know what I can have and chocolate and ice cream are not one of them.I am drinking my protein again. Its seems to do down easier. I drink the "ATKINS ADVANTAGE" The CHOCOLATE ROYAL is the best. My hair is finally growing back also. I have now hit the low weight of 130 lbs. I am down officially 115 pds. I am 5ft6 and now wearing a 4/6 depending on the brand.My family and friends think I am too thin, but I think its fine. It is great to go in the store and just everything fits. I am not holding in and trying to get into something. I have a new love in my life and I am great. Now here are some questions for you guys. 1) How is your weight loss? 2)Are you near what you would like to be? 3) Would you like to lose more or gain a few? 4) Is head hunger a big issue for you guys as it is for me? 5)Is dining out a hard one? 6)Is the worry of maintaining your weight loss crossing your minds? Well let me answer my questions and guys please try to answer also. I would like to know your feelings. 1) How is your weight loss? My weight loss is -115 pds WLS on 12/15/03 2)Are you near what you would like to be? I am more than near. I am there and really would not like to lose more. 3) Would you like to lose more or gain a few? I would really like to gain a few pounds back, but I am sure that will begin to happen soon. 4) Is head hunger a big issue for you guys as it is for me? Head hunger is the worse problem for me. I am a night time eater. I work 3-11 so when I get home at night I eat. I have bought more protein drinks so I will grab one. 5)Is dining out a hard one? The social issues are the worse. What is better than chatting with friends and eating hot bread and butter till your meal comes.?I don't eat the bread and wait on the meal. I am trying so hard. 6)Is the worry of maintaining your weight loss crossing your minds? Yes maintaining seems to be a worry for me I have a daughter who had WLS and has gained alot of it , maybe most of it back. That is a big fear for me. Have a great Super Bowl Sunday. Lorraine Thanks again for posting your answers. Can someone post some good questions also? I will try my best to get back to you guys with some answers. You guys are my support since I can't get to the meetings.

Hi Beautiful Lorriane.. 1) How is your weight loss? -100lbs on the dot 2)Are you near what you would like to be? No, I'd like to lose another 25, 3) Would you like to lose more or gain a few? lose more 4) Is head hunger a big issue for you guys as it is for me? Definately 5)Is dining out a hard one? Not as hard as I thought it might be. When I have a choice and time to think about it, I will usually choose healthy, and too many people watch what I'm eating for me to overeat. 6)Is the worry of maintaining your weight loss crossing your minds? Crossing? It's an almost constant worry that sometimes escalates to near panic Have a great day

I'm down 110 pounds since lap RNY 12/15/03. I'm less than I want to be. I don't want to lose anymore. I don't have a problem with head hunger any longer. I definitely don't have a problem getting hungry. I just know I need to eat. Dining out is not a problem. Eating the bread is not an issue for me since I can't eat bread yet. Right now I'm concerned with losing too much weight. When I hear others talking about gaining weight, sure, it concerns me because before WLS I never had a problem gaining weight. (I know that doesn't really make sense, does it?) Today is my 55th birthday and it's been a wonderful weekend with lots of family & friends and the best gift of all -- good health.
