Topic: Six Months out... How is the weight loss?
Time to check in and see how everyone is doing with the weight loss. I have lost 93.5 pounds to date with my surgery date of Dec 7,'07. How is everyone else doing? Has anyone run into problems? I had to have exploritory surgery due to tears/holes in the mesentary due to the weight loss, but am now healing. Would love to hear how everyone is doing for those with December 2007 surgeries.

I thought this was a neat topic. It encourages me to see how everyone else is doing that had surgery about the time I did. I had surgery on Dec. 21, 2007. I have lost 88 pounds since surgery and 102.8 altogether. I still need to lose 67 pounds. I have gone from a size 26/28 to a 16 and sometimes a 14. Need MAJOR plastics on my upper arms! Keep up the good work everyone! Marilyn

Hi, I had surgery on 12/28/07 and I'm kinda stuck at the same weight now for 2 weeks. It's so dissappointing to jump on the scale and see no movement. Oth er than that all is well

Awesome topic!! Its great to see how everyone is doing (even though I know we aren't supposed to "compare" lol) I had surgery on 12/27. So far I'm down 67lbs and have 32 to go! I started this journey in a 22 pant & 1X/2X top ... I am now proud to say that I can wear a 10/12 (snug!) and a Med top!! I never thought I would lose weight this quickly and I am hoping that I will be able to tone it up ... I truly don't want to undergo any future surgeries to "tighten up!" lol

Hi there! My doc gave me a script at my 6 week checkup for bloodwork at 3mo, 6mo, 9mo and 12. Then annually thereafter. I just got over the "tired all the time" feeling. For me it was that I realized I was forgetting my vitamins! Once I got back on track with them my energy level picked up significantly. Could this be the issue for you? I can't help with the eating part ... I know I'm not eating enough ... that is a daily struggle for me still

Hi all, I had surgery Dec 4th. I have lost 73 pounds and went from a size 22 to 14 I am 35 pounds from goal. I do also have some flab issues that need to be removed . I recently joined a gym, its slow going but I figure some is better than none. All my labs are well. I have never had a problem with hair loss. Great job to all Tracy

I love hearing how great we are all doing! I have lost 72lbs since surgery and a total of 141lbs since Sept. I started in a size 5XL and I just bought a size Large t-shirt... WOW! I have about 30lbs to go to reach goal, and I NEED MAJOR plastics and look forward to losing this gut! My weak point is exercise... I haven't found something that I do/enjoy doing/will do daily..... No wonder I'm such a slow loser! I think I have dumped once, and that was this week (finally, I know I actually DID have surgery!).... otherwise, life is GREAT!

Topic: Feeling really tired lately!
Ok so it has been 5mos and a week now, I am all of a sudden soooooo tired and weak. I have been doing really well with protein and eating what I am suppose to but wondering if anyone knows if I should be getting bloodwork done? I have only had bloodwork once at 3mos. Also how much is everyone eating? I have no idea how much I am suppose to be eating.
