I'm right there with you Suzanne re: the 5 pound stalemate. My surgery was 12-26-07. I'm under 200 pounds and would be less if I could get rid of this loose skin. I truly need to find a local support group here in town. I know of one, but just need to get my butt to the meetings. I've started to eat more carbs than usual and know this is dangerous for me. Wish I had advice, but I need some too! Hang in there. Kelly

Hi all It's been awhile....I'm BACK!!
My surgery was December 19, 2007! I am very happy with the results of my surgery so far..... I just need to get back on track.
I've been within the same 5 punds for the last 6 months. I need to get the scale moving again!! I am looking to all of your advice and suggestions to help me do this!!
Looking forward to communicating with you all!

December 7, 2007 was my sugery date. Wow, what a year! It has been full of events and a lot of new experiences. I am down 140 pounds since my surgery. I would have never dreamed that I would have been here a year after surgery. Life changing, for sure!

I am doing great.... anemic, unfortunately, but all in all, life is good! I am down over 160lbs (93lbs post op) and looking forward to plastics. I would like to lose 10 more lbs, but only from my gut folds, the rest of me is WAY SKINNY! I have never vomitted, and I haven't really dumped either.... I eat what I want, but try and make smart choices (I must admit, Dec was hard! I didn't gain or lose though...)... Scale has moved up and down a couple of lbs since October, so maybe I'm "Done"- May I stay here forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dec 2007 update:
Well where do I begin......I had been sick ALL SUMMER and noone could tell what was wrong w/ me....well finally my PCP did some tests....GALLSTONES!!!!! Needless to say...w/ all of the lovely vomiting, etc that was going on everytime I had an attack.....it was best that I remained unfilled.....the ENTIRE SUMMER.....weight loss came to a halt....thank God I really didn't gain...(but I did see 199 for a hot minute...loololol
) Deathly ill.....but I saw it!!!!!
I had my gallbladder removed two mths ago....and I feel great! I've now had two fills...but I still don't feel full after I've eaten...I have to just stop myself...if that makes any sense.....I call it "sometimey" restriction....some days I take one bite and it's rough going down...other days I feel as though I could eat a house
....clearly not where I need to be....but I'm working on it.
My 1yr. aniversary was Dec 14th...and I put together some pics just to see how far I've come......the scale might not be saying anything to me.....but those pics certainly did!!!!
So now on any given day I'm between 210-220.....I really need to put things in perspective.....I was 259/260......anything is better than going back there again!!!!! (but I still can't help being sad abt. not losing more....I'm working on these feelings
)
I have another fill in Feb...hopefully I can go back sooner b/c I need to get on track
Happy 2009!!!!!
