Everything is going here. I'm in a nasty stall and stuck at 28lbs lost. I'm not liking it... and it's been a struggle with me to no snack when I get something for the kids. I've made some not so good food choices, and I'm ashamed of it. I told my husband that when they finish eating all thier snack foods that we're not buying anymore... I can't take the snacks I used to love being in the house.

I'm currently trying to up my exercise, and see if that helps with this stall. It's been a couple weeks and it's SO frustrating. I've tried calling the nutritionist and she just doesn't seem to help at all. 

I was waiting for the elevator the other day, and noticed that I looked smaller and my clothes fit better, I liked that. And I've had more energy. Which is always nice when you have a 4 year old  and 2 year old.  

It has been 6 weeks I feel great. I seem to be stuck at 32 pounds for the last two weeks, but hey 32 pounds is 32 pounds.  I find if I go more than 4 hours without a snack or meal I start to feel a little hungry.  My eating is a little off schedual because it takes me at least 2 hours to finish my shake.  People have told me they see the loss in my face and my cloths are baggy so all is good here.

I don't get too much time to post but I came on this morning and saw that we aren't posting much here anymore.  How about a little update so I can see how my fellow December surgeries are doing?

I am ok.  9 weeks out and I havelost  48 pounds.  I still feel so happy but I have noticed some things changing.  I find I am hungry more now than before and this took me by surprise.  It started last week. I don't seem to be craving anything but I just feel hungry all of the time.  I am keeping it in control and it is probably part of what I have to relearn, but boy it is hard.  I am not having a problem getting my protein in or my liquids and I exercise as best I can because I have to have my left knee replaced. 

I was getting a little frustrated because people weren't noticing my weight loss and I wanted to shout it to the world.  Then a friend told me that people are afraid to comment about rapid weight loss because they either feel you don't want to discuss wls or you are sick.  I was surprised.  That made sense to me! 

I also am surprised that I really care more about how I look now than I did before. 

9 weeks and many more surprises to go.  SO HOW ARE THE REST OF YOU DOING?????

I just tried the site too, thanks! What a fun tool.

Congratulations!  Getting under 200 is SUCH a milestone, I can't wait myself - got a LONG way to go though. Good thing is, as soon as I hit 199, I'll have less than 20 to goal. :-)
