Lost the 2pds I gained in 1 day. I feel so much better on mushies! Tuna, can chicken, and crab are my friends!

I am getting so frustrated. I had my surgery on Jan 17th and I am not losing weight. I am on pureed foods and don't know what I am doing wrong. But now I wish I wouldn't have had the surgery. I just want to cry. The scale has said the same thing for like 3 weeks now.

Getting frustrated that work is so stressful I don't have time to exercise. This is how I gained weight in the first place!!! Argh.

Doing well- feeling more and more like me. I am so close to being able to say that I have lost 80 lbs already! I love that when ever I get on the scale it is either going down or staying the same- no weight gain!

Anxiously awaiting a reply from United health care for approval for surgery. I need this so bad for my health. I have chronic back pain and have already had two back surgeries...I cannot wait to be able to have some help getting this weight off my joints. Please pray for me!

OMGoodness!!! I just signed up for the Susan G Komen Race for the Cure - on May 7th - 5K Adult timed run. Okay - time to get really serious here. I gotta lose some weight quick and keep working on my time. Whoohooo!! What a great motivator!! It will be my first actual REAL 5K. :-)

Starting to become nervous that this plication won't help me lose weight! It would be my luck that I would be one of the oddballs to lose very little weight. Hmmpf!

Broke down and weighed myself after I said I wouldn't till mother nature left and ya, those two are conspiring against me, gained 2 lbs. I will not let the scale and mother nature win this battle. I put the scale away, outta sight, outta mind till I'm done with this PMS crap

12 Day Post-op NSVs: No more pain meds, wearing jeans and slept on my tummy last night! Also 1 pound away from my wedding weight. #wls

After reading posts on the Recipe topic, I have bought and received the cookbook "Eating Well After Weight Loss Surgery". It looks amazing, and I can't wait to try some of the recipes now. Thanks for the advice.

OMGGGGGGGGGG!!!!! I don't know what the heck is happening right now but my scale says I'm an even 226... I am officially below my lowest lap band weight and I blew it outta the water!!! YAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

I flew past the half way point today (I only weight once a week) and I am 7 weeks out tomorrow!!!

What??? Only a bit less than a half pound to be LESS than my lowest band weight mini goal. Don't get me wrong, I'm super happy - but I can't help feeling like I'm being teased here...

3 Weeks Post Op and only down 17 pounds. The majority of that is water weight becuase I lost it the first week. I have only lost 4 pounds since week one. I just seem to be doing something wrong. I am probably eating 500 cal and I know I am not drinking enough. Maybe 30 oz a day.

OMGosh I just found out I'm only 15 lbs. away from having a "normal" BMI, I thought I was 25 lbs. away...SO with that said I'm changing my goal weight to my normal BMI weight (according to my height) and will still have an ultimate goal weight as well... I'm soooo excited!!!!

I'm starting to keep a food journal to find out exactly how many calories I'm taking in. I think my body is in starvation mode seeing I'm not losing weight but I am losing inches. I mean come on 1 turkey meatball 3 times a day is not much but we'll see

Still on my 3 week stall. It's been 7 days and no weight loss.

Oh as of today im weighing 248. Total weight loss of 83 lbs. Im almost 7 months out. I will be 7 months April 28th

when I weighed in last week I was 374lbs, hopefully I have lost more weight this week .I will know 2morro when I weigh In..

: schadenfreude....saw someone who told me last year that I "eat like an animal" and that's why I can't lose weight. She's packed on a good 30 lbs herself since! Karma!

On a totally not weight loss-related topic, I had a really fun first date last night...this one might have some potential...

Wow..time is flying by. It has been 12 weeks(3months) and I am down 39lbs. This is amazing. I am at 200.4...can you believe I am about to say GOOD BYE TO THE TWO'S and enter ONDERLAND for life! I can honestly say this is one of the best choices I have made for myself. There is know way I could be going through such a huge transistion in my personal life and still remain losing weight without the Creator first and then this sleeve! To all my sleeve sisters! keep on keeping o...

Gained half a pound this week. Really need to get back on track. I did walk 14.5 miles total this week, so maybe I am building muscle. But I do need to make healthier food choices

Yay me. I hit my 50 pound weight loss mark today!!!
