Topic: RE: New to Group - Hello!
congrats on ur recent surgery.  Choosing to have WLS was the best decision I ever made.   It was so worth it.   It was not easy and I had my moments so far, but I would never change it.  I am not here as much as I used to be, I am trying to get myself in a better place with exercise and eating and just living. 

if you have specific questions jsut ask away!!

Posted an updated pic. This is the recent side by side. 110 pounds down.  I feel great.  I also just realized I am no longer MORBIDLY OBESE.  Yeah that is a stigma that I can be rid of forever.  I will bever get to that point again!

I just wanted to say hello to all of you -

I had my surgery last Wednesday - Feb 29 and am doing very well so far.

I'm hoping to find a group to receive and lend support to as we take this wild ride together.

:)

I remain excited and hopeful  -

I use vitalicios vitatops.  one a day gives you 6-9g and taste great.  I love chocolate so this helps my choc fits.

Topic: RE: Challenge...NOT for everyone!
Good Morning,
I think this would be a great time to bring this challenge back (since I need it so much!).
I had my RNY 2-14-2011 and I am down around 84 lbs. My weight loss has plateaued and I am eating bigger portions than I was a month ago. I have very serous eye problems so I can't exercise like I would like. I do walk but not enough to get my heart going.
Sooo I found theses containers at Target I think they are called Fit Fresh. They are 8 oz. containers. I am trying to fill one with what ever I am eating and stop when I'm done. Sometimes I still feel hungry. I am terrible with a food journal but I am doubling my efforts there. Can anyone think of what else I could do?
