I have dumped a few times but not on sweets. It's weird I can't really pinpoint what it is. For instance I have it now. Been on the pot for over an hour. Not sure if it was a new hummus I tried or some crabmeat from Aldi. Won't be eating either ever again!! I have only tried very little of sweets and haven't dumped. But I don't crave sweets. I crave the fast food!!! I am almost to my 6 months and have lost 82 pounds. Was a size 26 and am now a size 14. I have a lot of extra skin on my belly, arms and inner thighs. I workout at least 5 times a week but have a feeling I will still need surgery for this skin. my boobs are still pretty big too. And droopy lol!! I can't believe it's been 6 months already October buddies!!! You are all doing fantastic and you all look amazing!!! I'm being brave and adding some photos lol -

Wow u look amazing!!! Keep up the great work and glad u added exercise!! That does help! My boyfriend and I joined a gym and have been going at least 5 nights a week. Been working my butt off!! Literally HA! I guess I have lost a lot but for as hard as I've been working I guess it just seems like it should be more. I've even started running!! Using the C25K app on my phone. Sorry your weight loss is slower. What does your surgeon say about that?? Hey it's better than nothing!!!! Keep on truckin cuz u look amazing!!!! -

Oh I need to vent and confess. I am down 63 pounds since surgery on Oct 16th. I'm pretty happy with that!! Finally under 200 pounds!! But I have found myself snacking/grazing lately!!!! Ugh bad bad bad. I'm going to stretch my pouch!!! I have to stop. It's healthy stuff but still. Tonight I got home from work and snacked on a few bites of different stuff and then found myself snacking on stuff while cooking dinner. Then I couldn't finish my dinner!! So I need you guys to yell at me and stuff so I'll get back into the swing of things!! I have also found myself not weighing my food like I should. I still keep a journal but I've gotten away from doing what I should. I feel so stupid and guilty!!!! Anyone else having these issues? I'm only 4 months out and doing this already. It scares me!!! -

I'm still eating 600-800 calories per day. Three 2 ounce meals. Although I do occasionally snack on something healthy. But just a couple bites. If my stomach is growling!! Exercising a TON!! Joined a new gym. Go at least 5 times per week. -

But I haven't given in. It's getting tough though!! I'm hoping it will all pass after my monthly visitor leaves! Lol hope u are all doing well!! -

Yikes that scares me!! I'm done with my Omezrapole this week!! I hope I don't have problems because I've been really lucky and have only puked once!! I can eat pretty much anything. Healthy I mean. I haven't tried any sweets but don't want to! My weight loss has slowed down and I don't have my 3 month appt until the 30th. I don't like these plateaus!!!! Frustrating. But the good news is I haven't gained. It feels so good to be able to workout and not get winded when taking the stairs and walking a short distance!! Hope you are all doing well!! Thanks for the info about the omezrapole! I'll remember that after this week if I start having problems! -

Wow u look amazing!!!!!! Keep up the great work!!! Are you getting in all your protein? When you say hair loss how can you tell you are losing it? I pick off a lot of hair off my shirts and have noticed a lot of hair left on the bathroom sink after I do my hair in the morning. So I wasn't sure if I'm starting to lose mine or what. I have baby fine hair anyway so I can't lose it!!! Wasn't sure if it comes out in clumps or just a little at a time. Congrats on your progress so far! -

Ok here's my pics. 45 pounds down from October 16th surgery date. A friend of mine is having the sleeve done in January and her counselor told her to do a lot of side by side pics instead of relying on the mirror. It's very strange when looking in the mirror I don't see 45 pounds gone!! I have heard many people in my support groups say that and I thought they were crazy but I know exactly what they mean now!!! -
