Thanks all, yes very proud of myself. However now it's harder than ever. The first year is easy however after, it gets harder. It's going to be a struggle for life. But i'm still not regretting my decision. I truly believe this surgery saved my life and will help me live a much longer, happier life.
UPDATE I tried a cauliflower crust pizza this week, it was more work but I liked it even better than the crust made with cream cheese .

I know it's hard not to compare ourselves with other's weight loss I do it a lot too especially on the VSG forum and the BMI over 50 forum. I think it's important to remember that some people have a lot more weight to lose than others and that may be part of the reason they lose a little more quickly. I have a lot to lose, more than anyone I've seen on the NB forum and I think that may be why mine is coming off so guick right now. I am prepared for it to slow down but it will be hard to accept when it does. Anxious girl You are doing amazing and I'm so happy and proud of both of us for making this decision to change our lives and be healthier. I lost about the same amount as you by the 5 week mark, Good luck with your loss. JILLIAN .

Congratulations, you have done amazing with your surgery, I am feeling the same way and I'm only two months out, I cant imagine two years. I hope you had a great valentines day, I celebrated mine with out chocolate and didn't miss it at all! Going low carb has really eliminated any carb cravings I used to have.

Hi all,
2 Years ago today I got one of the most amazing gift. I had VSG surgery with Dr Beausoleil and was one of the best decision of my life.
I don't regret it at all. I know it feels like a long wait when you are waiting for the surgery, but it will come soon enough.
Happy Valentine's Day All!!
Don't eat too much Chocolates!! haha
I think I am a slow loser and I am currently in a stall for about 6 weeks now. I wanted to be one of those people who lost 100 lbs in 4 months but it just isn't happening. Because I don't lose fast, I only weigh every 2 or 3 weeks. I would get too discouraged if I weighed everyday or even every week.
When I look at my weight loss log this is what I lost per month:
Pre-op 26
Month 1: 17
Month 2: 17
Month 3: 11
Month 4: 5
Month 5: 11
Month 6: 5
Month 7: 3
Month 8: 6
referral sent March 2009/ Approval signed March 2013/Surgery May 2013
HW: 404 Pre OP Liquid: 375 SW: 349 CW: 271
I am so excited and happy and proud of you Jill!!!
