I have had spots of depression all my life and its worse when I have PMs. I am thinking about taking omega 3. You are lookin great Kelly. Cheri

Jamie, Unfortunately I don't have any words of encouragement for you. I just wanted to let you know I am going through the same thing. I hardly ever post here any more because I am so embarassed of how I am doing. Every one else is losing and I am gaining. I have gained back 20 pounds and I never even got to my goal weight. I can eat just like before surgery and and I can't seem to stop myself. I am so scared that in another few months I will be back where I started. My husband keeps telling me I am a total failure if I can't keep the weight off with WLS. I am so depressed and embarrassed about everything. Sorry I can't help you, but if you want someone to talk to, I know exactly what you are going through. Feel free to e-mail me. Melissa

Wow Cheri that is interesting! I don't take omega-3 but I feel fortunate that I have yet to have any depression. I do have somewhat bad "pms" a week or 2 before my period where I feel my hormones are a bit out of control but it only last 3-4 days then I'm fine. Kelly

Jamie Big hugggggggggs! I'm so sorry for everything you are going through and I say Ditto to everyone's comments! YOU ARE NOT A FAILURE! You can still do this. We will be here for you all the way! Drink lots of water! or some type of SF fluid in between meals. It really does help in weight loss... The past 2 months I have been struggling too. Not for sure why. But I had gotton to 198 then went all the way up to 210 then was bouncing from 203-207 for 2 months then I really went back to basics and really pushed the water and I am back at 198 and working my way down! So I know you CAN do it. We just have to use our tool! Email me anytime! Please keep us updated! Kelly

Ron where have you been hiding? LOL Wow you have done fantastic..... all of us have! Well I think we can definately beat the California board! Okay my weight loss has started moving these past 2 weeks so I am finally in onderland again after being there for a few days. 571 lbs + my -217lbs = 788 Kelly 415/198
