Topic: WEll, it has happened!
I have gained 2 pounds and I am mad! I have not lost anything in several months now and which way does the scale move...UP!! It is my own fault I know. I have not been walking like I should since it has turned chilly. I just can't warm up. Do you think I should get my iron rechecked? I know that I need to get back to the basics! I have also been fighting the dreaded "head hunger". I hate that. I have 3 small kids so there are snacks in the house. I try to get things that they like and I hate but sometimes I even give in to that. OK OK FOCUS!!! BASICS!! I know what to do...just got to do it! Thanks for letting me vent! Rhonda

Kelly, Hi there! How are you doing? I hope you are great. You are doing wonderful with your exercise. I hate it. Since my hernia surgery in September, I have not exercised. I do go for walks. I think that meeting is great for post-ops after one year. I must look into one at my surgeons office. Food is such an obsession for me. I am sure we all battle with this. Don"t buy any clothes larger. You will take off those few pounds. Just think of the long way we have come Have a great weekend. Lorraine

Topic: RE: Are you still loosing?
I wish I really want to lose 10 or 15 more pounds, I am ashamed to say I have actually gained 10 pounds in the last month and I am not sure how, I know some of it's muscle, I have been exercising a lot but I know I have been taking in too many calories, around 1500 daily and I dont dump on sugar and have eaten way too may sweets with the holidays. My surgeon's office is having a meeting with the nutritionist for patients about a year out on the 27th to go over eating plans and to help people get back on track. I am a stay at home mom so it's hard for me, I have acsess to food all day and want to snack, I need to quit quick because obviously my metabolism isn't just slow, it's non existent! I haven't gone up a pants size, still in an 8, but they are definitely tighter and I refuse to have to buy anything bigger. I am not hungry I just have the head hunger and the boredom eating thing happening I really need to get myself under control. The one good thing is that I have been spending anywhere from 2-5 hours a day taking different exercise classes. I have tried Pilates, step aerobics, interval training, jazzercise, water aerobics, spinning, I liked all of them except the spinning, sitting on those hard bicycle seats is rough on the bottom area! Everyone please say a prayer for me, help me get the will power to get back on track I dont want to sabotage myself and ruin all the good things this surgery has done for me. Thanks, Kelly

Hi there Karie, How are you doing? I have not lost any weight since Novemeber. I started at 245lbs and have been bouncing between 132-135 lbs. I have lost -113 pds. I did get the name of a great Plastic Surgeon to go to for my PS. I would love to have that skin on my stomach removed. My insurance will cover that. I would love to do my breasts and my thighs but that will have to wait. I am very pleased to be at this weight of 132lbs and 5ft6. I am tall and slender now like I was when I was a young lady. I think if I get under 130lbs that will just too thin for me. Now that it is winter I am wearing layers of clothes to keep warm and still can wear a size 6. Have a great day. We have so much snow here in NY I am going out to shovel now. Have a great weekend. Lorraine

kimberly, WOw that day is coming soon! I know what you mean about spending that kind of money but you are worth it! I can tell you from speaking to some plastic surgeons they highly recommend getting the implants. We lose all our fatty like tissue and fullness of the breast. Not to mention after breast feeding and baring children we lose that perkyness! I am going to get implants for sure when I get the boob thing done. I was like a 56 DD before surgery and now I am like a 36c....and its more like I have a pancake for a breast with a little blueberry on it! My insurance will pay for the TT but I will have to pay for the boob lift and implants. You are worth it...and don't forget it! Karie

It's me again I am scheduled for my TT and Breast Lift on March 22nd....OMGosh, thats only 2 months away I will be seeing my PS on Feb 3rd to talk about implants too. There is nothing left of my poor boobies I am still not sure that I want implants but, I dont want to be flat chested either. My HMO won't cover PS so I am self pay. For the TT, BL and some lipo, my quote was $13,800. Add another $3500 for implants. I feel so selfish spending that kind of money on me, I guess it's a momma thing. Just need to convince myself that I AM WORTH IT. Kimberly
