Thanks Lea.  I view it as a small obsticle on my way to health. "what does not kill me, will make me stronger".  I am sure that my medical support group (a great group of proffesionals by the way) will help me overcome that.  I am recieving a great medical care, physical and emotional. 

take care Lea, thanks for warm support words.  It is nice to know that great OH comunity is there for me.

Sorry to hear you've been ill.  The weight loss is great, but you'd have felt better losing a bit slower, I am sure.  Take care of yourself!  Try to build your health back up a bit as you work to slow your weight loss.  Remember we're here!!
Hugs,
Lea

Hi Lea,
I had a few rough weeks, and still not feeling good.  My gallbladder was removed, and because of the gallbladder pain and the surgery I lost more weight that I planned for this time.

I started with 173-174 lbs.  My New Year goal was 165.   Now I am 161.  So I met and exceeded my goal already. 

Having some complications, I do not lose like a normal RNY person would, so I can not even predict what my weight loss will be like in a next few weeks. 
At this point I still have a problem eating, and I am trying to increase the caloric intake and slow down my weight loss.  At my build and my height - I only have 10-15 lbs more to lose. 

I already met my New Year goal, so I will not be posting weekly, but may try  to post at the end of the challenge.  Hope that will be OK.  
Good luck to you and to rest of the "challengers"

Sally,
Thanks for the heads up!  I might have worried if I hadn't heard from you for a long time.  You've been with us since our start way back in May 2007! 

Maybe stepping away from it is what you need most.  Maybe just not thinking about it for a while and simply dealing with the other life stresses will help you get back on track.  Who knows!  But, be sure you know we are here if you need us!  And, you are welcome to stick around in the YahooGroup even while you take this round off!
Big hugs GF!!
Lea

Lea;

     I just wanted you to know that I am not going to continue with this current challenge.   Things are very crazy in my life right now and I am not dealing well with the not loosing weight very well.  I am going to try and resume after the first of the year.   Good luck to all of you in the group.  You are a great challenge leader and consider myself to be very blessed to have been a part of the last few challenges.
