Stall is over!!! down 5 lbs this week 120 total, 5 months post op..

1 week! Nesting for sure!

Can't wait to look in the mirror and see the new me. 2 weeks post-op!

Well I finally recovered my "Before" photo that magically disappeared from my profile! What a pain that was. Maybe now I will be able to post an even better "After" photo in a couple more weeks! Here's hoping!

Today is the 1-year anniversary of my surgery. I am glad that I made the decision. I had a great surgeon, my surgery went well and I have had reasonably good results. So far, I have lost approximately 134lbs. Within a week of my surgery, I was able to go off of my high blood pressure medicine. My blood pressure is now normal. Overall, I really feel so much better than I did a year ago today.

one week post-op and I got my staples and drain out- feeling good- 18 lbs lost!

This month was not as successful as I'd like I've gone from 159 to 156 back to 159lbs THREE TIMES! I'm tired of losing the same 3 lbs. Has this happened to anyone else?

O.K. so it seems that I am losing about 1 kg a week. FYI 1 kg euqals 2.2 lbs. I think I can live with this.

Finally got my surgery date! March 6th 2013 Start my 2 week liquid diet february 20th. So nervous about that. Just from the diet plans the nutrionist has me on I have lost 16 pounds and feel great. I cant wait for the next chapter in my life to begin.

I have 3 weeks of tracking to do... i hate procrastinating

Great week! I found it amazing how I got the most compliments during my stall:)

Stalled and needed a boost...Qivana....www.carmy.myqivana.com

Logging all my food and hitting Crossfit every day this week. I hate putting in effort and seeing scale not move. Plateaus suck #whine

losing 2 lbs/week... slow & steady wins the race

Super long week ahead!! Going away with the hubby tonight and wont be back till tomorrow night. I am looking forward to that! He knows how to make me laugh and I need that right now. This is going to completely kill my strict eating plan but oh well lol!! I wish you all a great weekend ( KISSES)

I just recieved a call from Dr. Stowers office and I'm back at square one. Since Dr.Kim and his staff putting me off for 2 months I have to start the three month diet & everything over again. I'm starting to feel like I'm fighting a losing battle. I called my mother expecting some kind of support. What I got was her anger. She had lap-band in 2010 with my new doctor, and it turned into big "told you so" thing with her. So, I guess I'm starting over. I apprecite any...

27 days post op - finally started feeling good again this week!

Starting the countdown for the surgery...started my 2 week pre-op diet

I am finding myself heading into depression! I have not lost any more weight since I came home from the hospital which was 8/12. I am doing everything that I am supposed to do. I was under the impression that I would loose a couple of pounds every week. I'm starting to think I did all of this for nothing!
