I had the rny and have lost over a 100% of my excess weight and I'm doing just fine now... If you're using Dr. Ross, you have a great surgery team... He takes great care of his patients...

good luck

Hey Melissa,

It is possible if you've been working out a lot, that you are gaining muscle - which by the way weighs more than fat!  Have you taken measurements?  Are your clothes fitting better?  Numbers sometimes lie to us.  You may still be losing fat, but gaining muscle, which would result in you getting smaller, but your weight going up some. 

*hugs*

I'm doing well except for the fatigue.  I'm only 3 weeks post op but I'm still finding it hard to believe the extreme tiredness.  I'm ready for that part to be over!  LOL!

Topic: Sorbet Recipe--Sooo hot in Charleston!!
Got this from my sis this past weekend.  Disolve 1 tub of crystal light ( or the walmart version) in 1 1/4 Cups of water.  Add frozen fruit of your choice.  Blend in magic bullet until fruit is no longer chunky and freeze.  Makes great popsicles or just in a bowl.  We used red rasberry crystal light with frozen peaches and it made a really great sorbet.  My sis tried the lemonade with frozen strawberries and said it turned out really well.  Hope this helps on this super hot day!

Melissa, although I had to switch doctors, I was going to Dr. Bour when you got your approval.  I think you look AMAZING!  I know you must feel like a failure but girl, you don't LOOK like a failure and your description of your exercise and eating behavior is NOT that of a failure.  Hang in there!!!!

Dr Byrne gives you one too with his name and address stuff on it.  I bet if you call they will mail one to you.
