Hello everyone. I am new here. My name is Jessica and I had my DS on 7-31-2013 and have lost 160 pounds so far . my highest weight was 402 and i am currently 242. I have started to slow a bit, but am realizing i'm getting away from the basics that have brought me so far. I decided to finally come to a place where other people have been through what i have as far as WLS and maybe find some encouragement to continue the good fight lol

I'm glad you came!

Stalls will happen whether or not you follow everything to a T. so don't despair. I'm particularly glad you came so you can learn more about nutrition. We have collected more information from each other and are light years ahead of the surgeons and nutritionists about what DSers really need to keep healthy. Pay particular attention to those posts.

Welcome. I often have found it useful to go back to some of my earlier menus to get back on track. At 18months
I still tend to go through a cycle where I let more carbs back into my diet and need to re-focust. There is a lot of
great help here so I think it is a good place to check out.
