Christi.85

It's hard to believe we've been able to lose so much so quickly. I still have another 90 to go. I started at 345. I'm at 245 now.

I have officially lost 100 pounds! Excited!

I'm on a 2 week stall... booooooo!

I noticed that I'm starting to eat more than I have been. I've got to watch it though because I don't seem to suffer from 'dumping'... I can eat pretty much anything now. I ate a cookie the other day and I admit sometimes I'll eat a couple of my kids french fries or 'try' some of their food. I've got to stop doing that. My hair has been falling out. It seems to have slowed some. I try not to think about it because it freaks me out a little. I don't blow dry my hair or use and kind of irons on it. I still haven't started exercising regularly. I REALLY need to get to it. I haven't weighed in over a week. I'm down 95 since Dec. 16. S of last week. I've been stalling and getting discouraged a bit. I struggle but I think I'm doing okay. How is everyone else doing? Anyone else struggling?

I can too. I just have to tell myself that's why I am the size I am. I find that if I just 'taste' something with sugar or lots of carbs I start craving it so I steer clear.

I haven't started walking or anything. I've got to get with it.

I've never thought about it like that but sheesh! That's a lot of potatoes! Congratulations to you too!

Down from 345 to 255 since December 16th!

I've had a stomach virus since yesterday. Haven't eaten anything. Trying to stay hydrated. Hoping to over this soon.

I still can't eat meat. I have to force myself to eat most days. Nothing sounds appealing. I'm tired of the same old things. I had blood work done at my 3 month check up. I'm not deficient in any vitamins so I guess what I am getting in its doing what it should but I do struggle daily.

Yay! I had mine on Dec. 16th and I'm 85 down. It's a great feeling. My hair is starting to fall out some. Not happy about that

Of I do my stomach bothers me. I can eat VERY little.

I went to the Doctor today for my 3 month follow up. I've lost 80 pounds altogether (60 since surgery on 12/16). She's concerned I'm losing too fast. She doesn't think I'm getting all my nutrition. I was telling her how I still don't tolerate meat. She said if that doesn't change in a couple weeks they will do an endoscopy to see if the opening from my stomach to my intestines needs to be opened a little to help me tolerate the meat. They did routine blood work. Next week I'll find out if I am deficient in anything. Hopefully not.

Thanks! I've been awake since 4 am with discomfort. I'm waiting on the nearby CVS to open (at 7) I'll pick up some AZO. Thanks for the suggestion.

I keep getting a UTI. This is my 4th one since surgery 12/16/14. I'm starting to think that the original UTI never completely went away. Maybe I'm not absorbing as much of the antibiotic as I need to for it to completely go away. I go to the bariatric Dr Monday. I guess I'll talk to him about it, but this really sucks

Hw 375 Sw 345 Cw 265 I had surgery on 12/16/13.

I still don't tolerate any meats well. I get a lot of my protein from Greek yougurt. I add granola for extra protein. I also bought some Hemp Hearts to sprinkle on my food. It's 10g of protein per 3 tbs. I add cheese to foods to boost protein. I eat a lot of Lentils too.

I feel awful every couple days. Dizzy and week. Think I need more protein. My 3 month appointment is Friday. They're going to do blood work and check my levels. Hopefully I'll figure out why I feel like crap. On a brighter note I'm down 75 pounds and down from a 28 to a 22! Whoot!

I can now cross my legs, down from a 28 to a 22 in pants, I can sit on the floor and cross my legs, and I can wash my butt with much more ease... lol
