Your post scared me at first..I was like "uhoh, what wasnt she warned about, and is she having complications and will I etc etc" hahahaha then I read it and got all happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks Annette and keep up the great work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your friend, Bethany

Hi Annette, You will find that the weight loss slows down a bit after the first 75 , 85 pounds. Don't worry tho, it still keeps coming off. What you will find is even tho your weight loss slows down, your clothes still keep getting looser. So don't start worring. Just keep up the great work and you will be fine. Take Care, Julio

Hey Annette, You go girl, great job. Your journey to the losing side as only just begun, you will see how much better you will feel and how happier you will be with yourself, take it from me its a great feeling. It does slow down as Julio said, I am at 10 months and I have lost 105lbs so far, I have sort of come to a temporary standstill right now and its frustrating. I am getting so greedy now with the weight loss, the doc said its normal and it will come off more soon. Lots and lots of protein and exercise does help alot when this happens she said. Well good luck sweetie, your doing great. Hugs KimC

Annette I can't wait to have that Happy problem. My surgery is Dec 12, 2005. I would love to hear more about how you are doing. People like you inspire me and make me certain this is the right move for me. Keep Happy, Keep smiling and don't worry that you are in a slump - seems to me with a positive attitude like yours, you will be on the losing side again soon. Tina Southbury, CT

I still look in the mirror and say "who is that" I go to stores and buy anything!!! and I can't beleive it. No I don't think that anyone was warned, but the looks and the compliments are worth it. I have so much energy now that I scare myself. Enjoy your new birth, and keep it goping. The weight loss swill pick up, but don't try to ru**** You were "large" for over most of your life, now lets not ru**** , now that it's leaving. Good Luck and when it;'s time for your body to move it will. Good Luck Jannie We all go through the stopping and the starting

I WASNT LARGE FOR MOST OF MY LIFE, ONLY THE LAST 7 YRS...BEFORE THAT I WAS SKINNY...WHEN I MOVED BACK TO CT AND HAD TO DRIVE EVERYWHERE MY WEIGHT BALLOONED NOW IM GOIN DOWN AGAIN AND STAYING THERE....
