Hi Dee Dee, Let see, I'm 5'8 starting weight was 327. Day of surgery, my weight was 311. I'm almost 7 months out and I'm at 230. For a total of 93 pounds gone !!!! Shondra

2949....keep up the good work

Morning, I'm doing OK I guess. Wish I had BIGGER loss number but the 2ND time around it goes slower (plus I don't have as much to loose). We saw DR Lynch Thursday in clinic for another post op check. Four months, 11 days post op today. I am 5'5 (shrunk 2" since I was 18, LOL). I started this time at 255.2 and as of Thursday I am down to 178.6 which puts me only at 76.6 pounds lost but as I know, second time around it is going to be slower. I did go get a new pair of jeans Saturday and am into a size 14 now so it's all good! I'm grazing about five 3/4 cup meals of solids a day but my protein and calcium levels are a bit low. I'm on B12 shots still, calcium supplements. Still lactose intolerant. However after the VBG in '93 I could never tolerate carrots in any form but I made a roast in the crockpot yesterday and FIRST TIME I've had CARROTS since the VBG! I can't even begin to explain just how WONDERFUL they tasted!!! A LONG thirteen years since I had them!

that puts us at 3026 lbs lost. I'm glad to hear your doing well - even slower loosing is still loosing!!!! Be careful eating too many carrots - they're high in carbs. Dee Dee
