I'm needing this wake up call. I too have been in a 1 yr stall. And play around with10lbs. I need to get away from protein bars. They're the devil for me. I guess I need to be more focused.

The lowest weight I got down to and that was on my anniversary of surgery was 186. My weight keeps fluctuating all the way too 200. I run and take classes at my gym. I know I'm struggling with my water again. And not always eating right -

When did you have your surgery? I had mine November 2012. Still have 50lbs to reach my goal. -
Dear Veterans, has your hunger returned?

I'm noticing getting back to basics has helped me. I'm drinking my protein shakes. I made ground chuck hamburgers. I eat them without the bread. I could feel being full again. It lasted a little longer. But I have noticed also wanting to eat every few hrs. I fight hard the urge. And try to drink water. But it's a true fight -

Who said your being mean. I'm simply asking a question. And I don't need rules read to me on how I need to act when I'm asking a question -

Why are protein bars considered slider foods? -

I'm glad I found this thread. I feel I sometimes can't control my hunger. I'm eating way too much. Sometimes it's protein bars. But too many. I'm 17months out. I feel I'll never meet goal. I've gains 13lbs since my 1yr anniversary. And this is hitting the gym all the time. I know it's food. It's always about food -
So I see Rosie Odonnell had the sleeve done. I was surprised she hasn't lost that much weight, 40lbs. They say the surgery was like in July of last year? I don't know. In how successful this surgery is she would have better numbers.
-
Whatever like I said it's an observation. I know the diet that I had to be on before surgery was 18-20 lbs. it's just sad that she's only lost 40 in 7 months
-
The only point I was in 7 months to lose 40 is not a lot. As you get closer to 8-12 months it's very hard to lose big numbers. Knowing from experience.
-
Yea they said the sleeve. They showed the procedure.

I also at this stage was sick of protein drinks. I ate eggs. Cheese made me very sick. I had the sweats and dumping from that. It's mostly trial and error. But the told me to start walking and I just did a little at a time -

My doctor never really gave me restrictions. I simply started walking in the treadmill. Slow but kept going -

Hang onto this time. Your appetite will come back. Your going to have your ups and downs. But like they say work your tool. Start working out as soon as you can. Get into the habit. -

How are you feeling Amanda? -
I feel it will be worth it. I've lost weight and workout all the time. But my belly makes me look so fat. I'm also experiencing so many rashes and pain from that. A woman I work with did a body lift and breast all at the same time. She took 2 wks off and just did light duty for a while. But I'm stoked for it like I was for my sleeve.

This November I'll be 2 yrs since the sleeve surgery. I'm waiting to save money. Also to have weight loss stabilized. Since there's so much down time I want to wait for next feb. Because I work in retail I have to have the right time to do it. I plan on running a couple if half marathons this year so this is my year going into my tummy tuck. It's like the cherry on the top....
-
I got a quote of a tummy tuck for $6000. They have their own surgicenter so it cuts the cost the hospitals charge. I'm hoping 2015 will be my year. I'll be 2 yrs out from surgery. Hopefully it will work out.

There's one hospital. It's on medical center parkway. There's the Dupaul building next to it and another one over there. You can can DR eckles office for the schedule and the website. I think it's Murfreesboro bariatric surgeons. -
I'm sorry I haven't responded. I work retail and it's been the crazy season. But I really didn't of anything different to get it started. I guess I just hung in there. Are bodied just keep plateauing and we have to be patient. Even though that's the hardest thing to do. Lol

November 14th was my surgiversary. I'm 106 pounds down. It's funny though I sometimes deal with the same issues I had in the beginning. But I'm happy with me. I sometimes deal negatively though with my body. It doesn't look like I want it too. But on the whole things are good

I'm finally able to log on to this new app. My progress is going well. I went for my one year appointment. They were happy. My start off weight was 292. Day of surgery 263. Today 186. I can't even remember being that weight. I finally started losing again in October. I really hadn't lost anything for 4-5 months.
