I made my first goal today!!!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Today my scale showed me 255.6lbs that means I have acheived my first goal to reach 256lbs. My doc put me on abilify 2yrs ago which works great for my depression but I gained 31 pounds on it. It took me this long to lose those 31 lbs per my home scale. I am very happy but just don't know how to Celebrate. Any ideas?

Whoo hooo. Congratulations!!! You should be extremely proud of yourself. I was on Zoloft and gained a ton of weight also before my lapband surgery. I'm no longer on the Zoloft.

How I celebrate is go out and do something for myself. Maybe get your hair done, your nails, a facial, pedicure, massage. Buy yourself a new outfit.

I vote to Celebrate with a spa treatment. They are my favorite way of rewarding myself. I love a massage and a facial. Congrats!

Way to go!! Spa treatment is definitely at the top of the list. If your clothes are getting baggy, then a small shopping excursion may be in order. :tongue2:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
