      Packerfan61964

      that is AWESOME news!!!!!

  5. Will be 3 years since surgery on March 5th!! Still maintaining my weight goal of 145 lbs. I am eating healthly and exercising everyday. My life is mine again and if I want to do it I do, my weight doesn't hold me back from enjoying life anymore! Thank you Dr. Seger and BMI of Texas!!

  6. Surgeon follow up- 6wks post- So far I have been doing good. I asked about the stricture with solids. He advised it is normal. The way my stomach was designed it will stretch eventually little by little so solids will go down easier. It takes about a year for the stomach to reach the size it was intended to be. He said 6mths from now, I should be able to eat solids comfortably, just very little portions of course. Am allowed to start weights and I have to increase my water intake. That's all for now.

      He also advised that drinking before food is not that crucial. It is drinking after eating that is crucial. The 30 minute wait is more important after eating then it is before eating. He used the analogy of a straw. Liquid first, food after, no problems. Food in a straw, then add liquid, problems.

  7. Next Tuesday is my 6 week check up. Hopefully I will be able to change my weight on my profile!!

      Good Luck just had mine and it's an awesome feeling!

  8. Ugh so disgusted with myself, I gained 2 lbs for the first time in 7 months and I am so upset. Looks like it's time to re-evaluate what I am doing and eating!!!

    1. pink dahlia

      pink dahlia

      Instead of being "disgusted with myself " over a tiny , normal fluctuation of 2 lbs, how about giving yourself a pat on the back for your progress so far ?

    2. BladeFox

      BladeFox

      Pup, it happens to the best of us. This is what happens when you realize that you can eat a certain food that you hadn't been able to eat..or it could be hormonal or salt. You have been doing so great and I am proud of you, so you better not beat yourself up about this!!!

    3. pupichupi

      pupichupi

      @Miss Mac good luck with your appt., @BladeFox thanks girl, I am really trying not to beat myself up, just chocking it up as a learning lesson, I havent found anything new I can eat, so I don't know how this happen, but I wasn't feeling good at all yesterday sharp pains in my stomach so I am wondering if that had a part in all of this? So I will just keep plugging along with this and see if next week is better? I was only 4 lbs from 200 and that is what discourages me, cause I am so close to onderland? lol

  9. Dr.s office called and rescheduled my 6 month check up. it is about 3 weeks earlier than I expected. I really wanted to be under 200 by then. With my weight loss slowing down, I may not make it. But on the bright side...I haven't been this light for years! It will be great to lose through the holidays for the first time EVER!!

  10. Dreading doctor visit today -- weight loss great -- labs (iron) not so good...

    1. shmily

      shmily

      are you taking a separate iron supplement? I do. I believe it is 27 mg daily in chewable.....

    2. Beni

      Beni

      I am taking 18mg of iron twice per day - it's what is on the two multi vitamin Centrum pills . I just decided to have them 12 hours apart 8:30 AM and 8:30 PM because vitamins that aren't used are tinkled away and this way I was spreading the load. This does mean I have to take pills 4 times per day (breakfast, lunch, dinner and bedtime). Were you taking about this amount? Please let us know what the doctor advised. You'll get it right, no worries. This is why we get tested.

      Ginger Snaps....how did your doctor deal with your iron numbers? Just wondering how mine is going to be as well. thanks for sharing.

  11. Uhh, so frustrated with myself yet again...gained two pounds.

  12. Doctor was so happy with my weight loss (about 15 lbs) that she took me off one of my HBP meds! Now I'm just down to one a day.

  13. went to a Your Weight Matters convention in Orlando yesterday - free vitamin samples and classes!

  14. So who determines my goal weight? did your surgeons tell you the goal or did you just pick a number.

    1. haleytrim
    2. Miss Mac

      Miss Mac

      Set my own. Doctor approved.

    3. Heather_8.1.14

      Heather_8.1.14

      I set one, then she set one, and we both agreed on a weight between ours :)

  15. Little depressing - went to buy new jeans (just one pair) I have some smaller ones but they just look too tight. Problem, my legs and around my knee apparently have not received the update I have lost 50+ pds. I have a size 16 butt and hips and size 20 legs. I darted the old pants till it looks stupid (like something moved out of the ass of my pants). Glad the weight is going by dang wish it would kinda loose from everywhere at the same time.

    1. Jordan861

      Jordan861

      Jeez I mean "lose" from everywhere

    2. Miss Mac

      Miss Mac

      I hear you. My weight is going from the top down, too. I have lost 65 pounds and look like a pencil with a tire around it now. Oh, well....

  16. I wish I could lose weight as easily as I lose my keys and cellphone!

    1. ProudGrammy

      ProudGrammy

      "God Grant Me Patience, Just hurry up about it!! LOL

  19. Weight loss is not only a physical struggle but a mental one as well!

  20. when does the time come when you can start enjoying losing weight?

    1. LilMissDiva Irene

      LilMissDiva Irene

      For me it took until I was feeling 100%. It's hard to be happy about losing when I don't feel good. Hang in there, it does get better.

    2. #MagicWithinme

      #MagicWithinme

      I hear you, thanks.. this too shall pass

       

  21. My new goal is to maintain my weight. That one's harder because the rewards are less immediate.

    1. ProudGrammy

      ProudGrammy

      i agree, but... its great to wake up happy at a great weight, feeling terrific, healthy -- thats a great "reward" accomplishment - keep up the good work kathy

    2. borg/assimilated

      borg/assimilated

      But how wonderful to be at the point where your weight is where you'd like it and with tweaking now and then will stay there.

  22. Walked a LOT on vacation, but didn't eat quite as well as I should have. It evened out, I came home the same weight i was when I left. I'll take it.

    1. ProudGrammy

      ProudGrammy

      glad you didn't gain - back to program - you'll become a winner again, while you are a loser (did i say that right?? LOL) kathy

    2. roundisashape

      roundisashape

      Thanks! Turns out it's just "girly time" - maybe I lost weight and my body just hasn't figured it out yet :D

  23. I'm really thinking hard about maintaining my weight loss. I have some stubborn bad habits, like watching TV or reading instead of exercising after work. I also find that I get hungry sooner after a meal than I used to. I don't want to walk down the road to regain.

    1. finediva

      finediva

      O, ok. That can be tough. I was able to get a cheap membership. Not a fancy gym, but it gets the job done. I'm not an exercise person, so I have to push myself. Best.

    2. Pepper123

      Pepper123

      I totally understand..u dont have to join a gym just go walking everyday...I get home change and off to the gym..It's hard but my thoughts are why watch tele...when i could be exercising...i do that after 9pm ive missed some of my fav shows but i have to get this body in shape...Good luck!!!

      IcanMakeit

      Im ashamed to admit that I have been putting a higher priority on enjoying my tv shows than keeping my health.
