Topic: RE: About to cry
I have been at a plateau for 8 months! Weird, but I can almost pinpoint the exact week my "honeymoon" period was over-and since then I bounce up and down by 8 or 9 lbs. I need to lose 20 more pounds to be in the "normal" range BMI, but I would personally be happy to lose only 10 more and KEEP IT OFF! I exercise daily-1 hour at the gym w/cardio and strength training. I measure everything, I journal. I have upped my daily fluid intake from 100 oz to 180 (per nutritionist's advice), hoping this will help me not be so HUNGRY all the time. My surgeon considers me a success and says I did way better than average, but I am not satisfied. This is so hard now but I will achieve my goal!
Topic: Just curious
This board seems to be really dead now but I figured I'd take a shot from lurk mode. How many of us are starting to look into plastics and how many of us are at maintenance now? I am trying to get something done for my tummy and girls. I am maintaining within 5 pounds up and down now so I think that I am starting to stabilize. How are you guys doing? I know we all started at different weights but I feel that we all have succeeded in improving our lives so chime in and tell us how y'all are doing!
My goal 135; current 132; pre-op highest 285; I have lost more than I weigh... I my RNY!

We are at the Polynesian Resort at Walt Disney World FL. It was wonderful.
Topic: RE: goal weight
Congratulations! I wish I could drop another size or two, but I'm basically at my goal weight and in a 14. I'm tall though, so I'd never be a 2 or 4, but a 10 or 12 would be nice ;-)
