Today is my official 6 month surgiversary and I couldn't be happier to have had RNY!!!

I have lost 55% of the weight I have to lose, I'm right in the middle of average weight loss! Sure I'd like to weigh less than I do at 6 mons, but at the same time I'm fine losing average so my skin and body time to adjust and not be so baggy skinned!

I got flying colors with my RN visit, as well as the dietitian. I have only lost a few lbs in just over a month but thats okay! I know things will slow down now.. and like they both said, I will lose the rest of the weight over the next 6-12 mons...

I am working out at least an hour every night, with Sundays as a rest day. I don't really snack, and I get all the supps and water in. I'm doing everything right.. 

YAY for me!!!

** And thanks to Nicole for seeing me at our holiday party at work today and telling me how great I look! It reinforced what they were telling me at my appointment today, even if somedays I still don't see it or feel it!

You've done amazing!  Congrats!! 

Keep doing what you're doing, through the slow times & the faster times.  And that's great that your RN & dietitian went so well!

Hi, Stacy.

You are rockin' it, girl!   Congrats on doing everything right.   I'm afraid I'm starting to backslide a bit, munching when I have no business to do so and slacking on protein.   But  . .  . I joined a fitness club yesterday and will have to buckle down.  One pound lost in the last month makes me verrrrry nervous.

How's your sister doing?   I so enjoyed meeting both of you last month.

I think you are doing GREAT!  Thats an awesome acheivement!  I'd love to be at 50% by six months, thats actually my goal.  I know people lose at different rates, I try to come to terms with that every day...so just remember, the journey might be different but the goal is the same.

My Docs think I'm a slow loser and it's no fun to hear that from them...but I know I'm doing EVERYTHING right, eating properly and exercising...it's all I can do.  Metabolism and body chemistry does have something to do with it, even when you are eating like a squirrel!

I cannot wait to see what the next six months hold for you!
