Hi, Why are you still sitting out there waiting to have surgery. I know for many, it is the fear off failing just one more time. I felt like that too, and I want you to know that "sleeve" surgery was the ONLY thing that has ever worked for me. I had it over 4 1/2 years ago and I lost 105 pounds and I have kept it off. STOP giving days of your life away. Make the choice to do something that is going to save your life. I am always here if you have any questions. Do something NOW, and I promise you, that you will never have any regrets
Hi Everyone,
I know I don't have the right to complain after losing 80 pounds in the last 7 months. I have been stuck at the same weight for the last 3 weeks. And I know that it is my own fault. I have to lower the calories and up the exercise to get the weight loss going again. The last 20 pounds are going to be harder to get off I have a feeling.
I am saying this because I want people to know that we all go through places in this WLS journey that we don't lose weight. I am thrilled that I have not gained a pound during this time. It just proves over and over again that I made the right choice in have the "sleeve." :thumbup1:
It still seems a little strange to hear someone tell me that I am "skinny." Skinny is something new and strange for me to hear. But, I look at myself and say YES, you are so slim notice I don't see myself skinny yet) and look so much better than you did last summer. This is a whole new world for me. It has been many years since I felt this good. I actually enjoy getting up early (I am retired) and go walking ealry in the morning with a friend of mine who has lost weight and also was sleeved in April 2009. We are a great support team for each other.
So I am open to anything anyone one has done to get past that "no weight loss" for a few weeks. This has been a great board and I really have enjoyed the people on here and being able to share with them, so many of my feelings.
Have a great week. I have already walked 3 miles this morning, and plan on golfing this evening when Bob gets home from work. :001_rolleyes:
