Hi Everyone,

Whether your pre-op and trying to lose before your surgery, or post-op, we welcome everyone to post your accomplishments here....its really pretty neat to see how everyone is doing-and it can really be an inspiration to a lot of preop people who are struggling. It gives them hope. If your on a plateau-it will NOT last-it wont..... Sometimes it feels like it, but it wont-LOL....I hope you all had a good scale week-Like Andrew!!! Way to go Andrew!

Weight day of seminar (07/08/06)= 438#

Weight day of surgery (11/29/06)= 394#

Weight 2 Fridays ago= 178#

Weight today= 179#

No weight loss this week-gained 1#...but had a procedure Weds and I think thats sent me out of wack-as I lost 2# in Arizona-taking me down to 176! It happens sometimes though and Im not going to get discouraged.

***Weight loss so far= 259# WOOOOO HOOOOOO....thats a nice sized person Ive lost so far-no wonder my joints hurt so bad before that I would have to sit to cook or do the dishes-I cant imagine carrying that much weight around today-I physically couldnt do it, thats for sure.... Good luck everyone-hope to see you post here. Love and prayers to you all!!! Janet

Not been a good scale weeks for the past couple... I am having terrible swelling in my ankles and hands... not sure why ...don't think this real weight. But hopefully I will get past it and back to seeing a downward turn... am kind of afraid what the cardio Dr. is going to find or say about the swelling? I soooo hope it will not interfere with my surgery plans?

My highest 315
Lowest recenlty 295
Weight today 305

That stinks but it is what it is....

I'm one of those pre~oppies that get such great encouragment from reading the great results of others... It inspires me! to what I have to look forward too.

Yes, Yes it is way cool about Andrew! Way to go buddy!

I am losing my hair right and left, i'm afraid to bru****probably didn't help that up until a couple of weeks ago I was drinking all my protein in one sitting, I didn't know that your body could only metabolize 30 g at a time, i now get 30 g 2x a day plus whatever i eat through the day. when will my hair come back at the rate it's going i'm gonna need a wig soon...no joke.

Please be sure you are taking your vitamins and minerals especially the biotin.  I now take biotin separate from the other vitamins and it has helped my hair and make sure you get your protein in.  I thought I was going to have to get a wig also but as long as I keep up on my protein and vitamins etc... my hair does look healthier.  I also keep it short which makes it look fuller as any length weights it down and my scalp shines thru!  6 months out was the worst for me & my hair LOL.  You just bear with it and find what works for you.

seminar-308
surgery day-208
one year-135
pregnant at 10 months out gained 27 pounds-155
now I am 158
not sure why... I do need to up my excersise
I felt out of control about a month ago so I started counting my calories and drinking my protein shake in the morning again.  Since then I have gained 4 pounds and I am not sure why.  It may because I am building muscle and muscle weighs more than fat.  Anyway, that is it.  Have a great day and God bless, Penni
