    Fabulous February!

    I'm here!! It's been a ride for sure! I had my biggest low a few months ago, the monthly cycles were making me nuts, went back on medicine and am feeling normal again. I'm slow loosing, think I've only lost 6# since August. School started back up so back to work I went and stopped working out. It's hard to get it back into my routine. I have lost 72 pounds and I'm at 150. I'd like to see MY scale hit the 140 range, dr office is about 6# heavier but I don't care. I feel good and am eating well. I was throwing up maybe 3x a month if I didn't chew right and ate too fast, (so glad I'm able to puke it up then suffer that feeling!), and it's now maybe 1x a month or every other. Getting used to my new self and listening to what my body tells me! I'm still sensitive when my husband wraps his arm around me- it kinda is a weird numb hurt feeling in that one spot. Anyhow- so glad to be here and I do hope all of you are doing well! Would love to hear how we've all be doing!! Wendee

    40's New Beginnings

    I had RNY Feb 2013 and turned 41 this past may. Best thing I've ever done for myself! I'm 5'2 and weighted 222 in a size 20. I'm now 150 and in a size 6. I have a lot of muscle so it weighs more, it's inherited.... But I'm so glad of the choice I made! I feel great! Shot 2 deer last night about 200 yards away from our house and after finding them ran the entire way back to the house! Like RAN! I was out of breath and the cold freezing air made it hard to breath but HEY!!!! Anyhow! Good luck to all of you in your 40's! It's my new 30 for sure!!

    Newbie in KS

    Hi all- I'm new here, been on a weightloss/gain journey my entire life, and ready for this to be life changing and long term. I've had major ups and downs with weight, in '08 I went to a weightloss dr in town and went from 206 to 136 in 5 months with exercise, strict food diet (from the dr), and serious determination. 3 years later I've gained it all back and weigh more then I started. Today I weigh 218. I'm waiting for insurance and have cleared all the other hoops. I'm excited to join you all here for long term better health! Summer 2007 Summer 2009 Currently- 2012

    Hi everyone. It's been a while since I've been here. Having summer off from work its been super busy with being home with my girls! My dos was 2/20/13- 222 hw Current weight is 161. I've been stuck in the 160's going on 2 months now. Was losing 10# a month at the least so enjoyed seeing myself drop into a new range the next month. My hair has fallen out super bad this past month. I have really long hair and with swimming daily, gardening, I swim- rap it into a bun, take a bath- wrap it into a bun.... Haven't been brushing my hair daily and did today for the first time in 5 days! (I really suck at having and taking care of long hair- don't know why I try and keep it long but I feel more attractive and my husband likes long hair on me) so anyhow- it was a terrible mess! Massive hair loss Feeling kinda low about the stall and now the hair loss. I suppose I need to kick myself in gear and do more.... I work out 5x a week and am constantly on the go, eat well.... Just stinks kinda..

    Real Food - Is it worth the effort?

    Low carb yogurt, cheese sticks, meatballs, tuna, salmon, eggs.... Cook yourself the "meal" and immediately freeze portions and label them. I rarely have "meals"- I'm past 3 months out. We have a big family so I will have a serving of what ever it is I have made for everyone. Protein first, then if I have room a bite or 2 of veggies. The first 2 months I focused on the Protein shakes and then would nibble on "real food". Now if I'm short on protein I will add in a shake.

    What ya eating tonight?

    I'm having serious cravings for peas- creamed peas. So I made a bag of frozen peas and then creamed them (little butter, flour and milk).... Ate about 1/4 cup! So DELISH! That was following 2 hours after about an 1/8 c of taco meat, refried beans, dash of cheese and little spoon of sour cream!

    Fabulous February Post-Op's

    I started about 6 or so weeks ago. I was once a Jazzercise instructor (before gaining all my weight back and then having PF) so I'm back to jazzing it 3-4 x a week! I love it! Nothing like burning 600 calories while dancing and having strength training too!

    My Bp today was 96/80. My husband is freaked out. I called surgeons office and they said if I'm not light headed or dizzy I should be ok and may have low Bp from now on. Anyone else with low Bp? I did sleep on and off all day yesterday- I thought it was from the weather being stormy making nap conditions perfect!!
