Aint WLS just GREAT!  As of today, I am 100 pounds lighter.  I have lost 53 pounds since my surgery!!!  Less than 2 months!  And that is with a dreaded 3 week stall.  It is so very hard to be patient and I am sooooo much happier now that I am in rapid descent again since Thanksgiving.  To anyone hitting a stall, if you know you are doing everything you doc said and not doing anything different then when you were losing, just be patient and trust that you will catch up eventually.  I know the stalls can play mind games and make you miserable in the short run but just look how much you have accomplished in such a short time and hang on.  You will start losing again.

Last month I went to my first real life postop group and I tell ya I find the OH online group much better and its free!  Drive in and out of Boston, pay for parking, get charged for the postop group, they can keep em.  Thank you to all my BMI over 50 buds.  You guys are the best!

Thanks Tabbyfree, you have done amazing and are a great inspiration!  My goal is to be where you are at by the end of next year!  If you want to send me a friend request you can get into my profile and just copy mine and paste into your signature twice.  I cant remember the exact location I got mine but I just copied someone else's that was a generic one.  There are suppossedly some people who can make them and then you can add your name and such but I dont know anyone who does.  Congrats yourself!

There's a member here...Jazelle....who makes the cards. A while back she posted this link woth permission to copy any of the cards and use them, she just asked that we don't claim the work as our owm. swords.cc/ohcc/oh_card.html  You can open the card you chose in any graphic or photo program and edit it with your name. I think You can do it in Paint, too.

Wow!  Nice.   I can't imagine how that must feel, but I sure hope to find out.

Congratulations!!!   You've really worked hard for it!

Mine slipped up on me. I changed my daily calorie intake and the next week lost 10lbs....and whizzed right by that 100lb mark. I was so excited about the 10lbs. I didn't even realize the 100 had come along until several days later.

\Wowza, Donna. That's losing weight FAST. I'm SO HAPPY for you. Your patience has paid off and the surgery is working it's wonders. 100 lbs that you never have to carry around again. So cool!

Sorry about the local group. Mine is variable in quality. Some are real duds and boring as anything and others are great and we all get to talk and learn and support each other. I am glad I don't have to drive far or PAY for them or I wouldn't go.

We're gonna be lookin GOOD this time next year!!!

Congrats! That is so awesome, you are doing so wonderful. About that dreaded 3 week stall, I can compleatly agree (just got off one of those two weeks back) they are a major bummer, but i think they make you feel more thankful for every once we lose, because we never know when it might stop. Well keep up the good work!
