    Best and worst "compliments"

    ploveda1 replied to Healthier2day1227's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories

    My worst un-compliment at my age that is so hard to hear is " wow your weight loss sure makes your wrinkles show more" It would be nice just to hear " wow you are looking healthier these days".

    This would be great info for everyone. If you could just post how many pounds you lost each month starting with the first month post-op until now. It would be nice to see at a glance everyones loss even if your one month, 6 months, 1 year or more. Here is mine. 1st month- 14 pds 2- 4 3-4 4-4 5-2 6-2

    I quit smoking about a month before my surgery and weight was going up quickly I mean 20 pounds in a month. Which is one of the reasons I believe I am a slow looser. Then a month ago I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism also contributing to being a slow looser. The odds were not good but despite it all as of today a little over 5 months out (drum roll) I am down 30 pounds!!!!!!!!!. Happy! Happy! Happy! Yes I am a slow loosing winner!

    OMG! I have been diagnosed with hypothyroid and my Dr. wants to put me on Synthroid. Everything I have read on synthroid causes weight gain. I have worked so hard to loose weight I just can't emagine taking anything to make me gain. I am not going to take it no way.
