Ok so I'm 6 months out. I've lost 100 pounds. I'm at a stalling point in my weight. Won't budge past 183. I've cut back since I knew I was eating alot due to stressful events in my life. I started on protein I take my vitamins. I would say that I am frustrated with my scale, but dang I've lost 100 pounds that's awesome!! Would like to aim for 150 in weight. That's my goal weight. But I'm happy with the success I've had!! :-)

Ok so I have been emotionally eating lately. Chips, candy. Pickles, peanut butter, chocolate. I eat a lot during the day. I feel like I've stretched my pouch, I drink coffee alot. My eating has been from hearing my dad is dying. And my kids have been sick, work has been crazy, at the end of the day I just want popcorn or Mac n cheese and or some comfort foods. I feel like such a failure. I've been at a holt in weight for about a month. I have not been following my protein, I just am failing. I feel horrible!!

Ok, so I had corn pudding. Green bean casserole, rice:beans, turkey, pork roast, cranberry sauce, and red potatoes. I had a spoon full of each on my plate, was able to eat all of it over an hour time. Have to admit I was excited I was able to eat and finish my whole plate!! Merry Christmas everyone.

It's official!!! I've lost 100 pounds since July surgery. I feel so good, aside from just having gallbladder surgery last week. I'm excited about my loss. Only 33 more pounds to go till my goal weight.

Well it's official I've got gallstones. Going to see surgeon tomorrow to see about possible removal. Wish me luck!!

I have my decaf kcups no problem drinking, I started it 1 month post op. no problems!

Does anyone get some discomfort where the jpeg tube was placed? I'm 4 1/2 months out and feels like that area bulges and aches a bit. Should I be worried?

So no one judge, but I've been eating like horribly lately, chips, sweets,and even fried foods. I don't get dumping. Making bad decisions, I'm going back to my old ways. Big sigh!! Any suggestions??

I want to thank everyone for all you said. I mean I don't eat whole bags of chips but I do eat some here and there. I felt like a failure for eating it but it was good!!! Lol. I'm cleaning out my bad habits today and starting over to what I should be doing. In 4 1/2 months I've lost 93 pounds. I believe that's pretty good. Unfortunately I can eat anything I want!! Which is bad because it tempts me all the time. I think above anything I'm afraid of stretching my pouch. Big sigh, just praying I can get ahold of myself!!

Congrats!! I know how good that feels.

Ok, so I know they say stay away from caffeine after surgery, and I bought the donut shop decaf coffee for my morning treat. But I've had to break and drink the light frappacino from Starbucks. I get migraines really bad and need caffeine from time to time to help. Can't take NSAIDs anymore so I hope a little caffeine here and there won't hurt

It's official! I'm 199!!!!! Wow!!!!!! I've never been so happy to see that number. What an accomplishment. Now aiming for that goal weight of 150. Here I come.

Thanks everyone!! It feels amazing!

Ok, my third week and I'm not losing weight. A bit frustrating because I want to get to my onderland mark. I'm slowly slowing down. Any suggestions to get things kick started? I'm down 81 pounds. Surgery was July 12th. So not too bad!

Ok, so going to vent a bit about my current situation, ive lost so far about 75 pounds since my surgery july 12th. Im looking a bit thinner, I feel good, have energy and im only going to lose more weight, im roughly 60 pounds away from being at my goal weight. Now that being said my partner is getting soooo jealous lately about anything I do outside my home/job, I mean if I go out with my friends, im apprantly going out to find someone else, now im not one to go looking for anyone else because im happy with what I have. Im not liking the new issues...does anyone else have this problem??? what can I do??

Well, my partner does love me, but being a truck driver and unable to be here, I believe triggerrs the obssesion to be overly jealoys, thinks becuz not here to give me all the new attention people, are now giving me, that ill be straying off to find better. Just time and patience for the changes made will hopefully be the key, I just hope its not to late at that point.

I just wish I could change it because, I do love my partner, but im not doing anything different or act different im just skinnier. I do hope things change. Thank you for all ur words.

So just went through my closet again, and I literally cleaned it out, ive got 20%, of clothes left. Not sad but sad ive got nothing to wear, not down enough to buy new clothes, ive got 64 more pounds to lose, so not too far!! Looking forward to my onederland mark which is 14 pounds away. Imma cry at that very moment.

So, I am a nurse and a office manager, I walk and on my feet all day, when I get home, im TIRED, mentally and physically. Last thing on my list is exercise, anyone ever feel this way? Any suggestions?? Might be me making excuses.

Looking good girl!!!

Ok so I really like that my closet is now a closet full of clothes that dont fit! my old clothes swallow me! I hate shopping for clothes, and im not sure of my size. Plus im not where I need to be yet so dont want to buy a bunch only to have them out grow me in 2-3 months. Might have to hit up a goodwill and just second hand shop till im at my goal weight.

Ok so everyone knows how low self esteem gets the best of you. Im down 64 pounds since july 12th. Very proud of that, but I thought id start liking myself physically and its just the opposite, all I see now is all my loose skin and flaws. Wish I could just wake up one day and say dang that woman I see is gorgeous, instead of seeing the crypt keeper when I look in the mirror. Big sigh.

I believe kids are brutally honest, but im pretty lucky that my girl is happy with me.
