I hit my three-week stall. Actually gained two pounds. Not even discouraged. I may lose those by weeks end. No pun intended but I'm looking at the big picture. In time I'll be right where I need to be.

Hey, thank you for the comment about my goal weight... yea, hard to believe that I am 14lb (or so) away from my surgeon's goal. It is a real struggle at the moment though.

You are doing well yourself too... =]

im doin gud so far. 2 more weight checks and then i can get my surgery date :-D

GOAL... I want to hit my 100 lb weight loss by my 9 month surgery date... Hmmm...

That is so awesome! Congratulations on the amazing weight loss! I am hoping I see results like that when my body finally adjusts to this eating multiple times a day thing, lol. Yeah, I've heard he is pretty good, and he is one of the only sleeve docs my insurance covers here. What is your diet like?

Woohoo! I have heard some good things about him. I am having my surgery with Dr. Webb at NFL Surgeons in Jax also. How is the 3 month supervised weight loss going? I am almost in month 3 of my 6. Only three more days!

Hiest weight ever 328lbs.

Starting weight 315.8lbs.

4/1/11 Last doctor visit before surgery 311lbs.

4/18/11 Surgery day 284 lbs.

Stay strong on your weight loss jouney Nickle, I have faith in you !!

Hey Infernored sorry for getting back 2 u soo late but I lost the weight pre op by sticking with a 1200 calorie high protein diet! after surgery I had a lot of eating complications that lingered for about 4 months. I am still not eating enough by the guidelines but I feel good with what I eat! as for exercise I am trying but it is difficult especially cause I hate 2 sweat!LoL..Good luck 2 you!

Is "VSG info"- Avis, I live in London and want to go for the VSG option. The problem here in UK is that they will turn you down if you are a bmi 35 and lower. My current BMI is 31, has been much higher. It have been trying to keep it low lately. I am tired of my weight yoyoing. Any help about vsg for low bmi's like me?

What do you think about this Dr. Aceves? Does he take on lo...

Way to go on all the weight loss! How much can you eat at a setting now? I wasn't really tracking cals or anything but I wasn't really losing so I came home and figured out cals for last Sat and I couldn't believe it - I had like 1700 cals!! No wonder! I didn't even eat anything bad. I just assumed I couldn't eat that many cals if I ate foods that were ok. Wrong! I've really gotta watch it now!

Hey there! Just checking in. How have you been? I've upped my workouts, and my weight loss has finally picked up a little. How are you doing?!!

I'm doing okay... weight is coming off much slower now. It's ok with me though, I'm already comfy with myself - I just want to lose more to get further away from the 200's and to lose more inches. I'm very close to being done!!! Super happy :)

Bro your pic looks great. How much weight have you lost?

Wow it sounds like you are doing GREAT! You already get to eat soft foods?? You are so lucky. Your weight loss is excellent. Take care!

Hi Deb! How are you? I'm doing okay...sort of slowed down on my weight loss. I need to start exercising, but have been working too many hours and taking an online class so am just sitting on my butt!

OMG me and friend were just talking about that! I just bought the magazine with Olivia on front...maybe because they are young and worked out through out their weight loss???

Second week post-op and I havent lost any weight this week

I weighed this morning and my weight is 186lbs. I have lost 59 pounds since surgery and since the beginning of my journey 105 pounds. It is hard for me to believe I am now firmly in the 100's. Have not weight this much since I was 19 years old and I was pregnant at the time.

God is soooooo Good!!!! I have tears in my eyes right now. A financial weight has been lifted off my shoulders all by the grace of God. As I look back on the situation I can see the hand of God at work. And I am so thankful that he has me covered even when no one else does. Thank You my heavenly Father. I praise your name.

Just starting week 8 of 12 of the Options program at Kaiser. Time is flying and the weight loss is slow but steady. I feel great.

I made 146 today six lbs from my goal weight..

Well I finally got to try on my first pair of Jeggings lol, and with the boots I got that come up over my knees they look amazing! Loving all the weight Im loosing

OH OH gained a pound while traveling for business the last 5 days. Grrrrr. Upping the water and protein should take care of this in no time with my little tool!

I LOOOOOOVE Weight Watchers! I was thinking the SAME thing. It's the BEST program out there! And I hear a lot has changed for the better. Keep me posted on how you are doing I will do the same HUGS! Have FUN on VACA
