you have lost 90+ lbs in four months!!!!! that is amazing! stop complaining and enjoy the gorgeous healthy new you! I am so jealous, hope my weightloss is as swift and successful:)

First off, I have lost 96 total,, 50 of that was pre op. So that is 46 pounds in 4 months, so yes that is still amazing. I was not complaining, rather I am expressing my frustration at the long stalls in between loss, and yes I thought it would go just a little quicker than it, or at least hoped. It is so frustrating to see the scale sit for 3 weeks at the same number when eating so little and exercising.

I'm 3 1/2 monts out and I am down 58 pounds. I didn't lost any weigh pre op. Doctor didn't make me and insurance didn't require it. I can not eat more than 1/2 cup of food at a time.

I always have a shake for Breakfast

Snack: I will have a piece of cheese or a yogurt (if I am hungry)

Lunch: usually a lunch meat roll up or some egg salad/ and a couple slices of cucumbers

Dinner: Have whatever I cook for the family

Snack: a sugar free fudge pop EVERY night! LOL. It's my favorite snack.< /p>

I had only one stall and it lasted for 10 days. I switched to a Protein shake in the AM and started losing. I also exercise a lot. I spin and work out with a trainer. The lower I get the more I need to exercise to lose weight.

Good Luck and hope this helps.

I'm just past the 4 month mark - I've lost 59.2 pounds!. I'm so thrilled! MOMof2 - I LOVE sugar free Fudgesicles! I eat 5 small meals to get in around 1000 - 1200 calories... I try to burn about 2200 calories a day. I have a Body Media that I wear on my arm. It's helped me stay focused. I log all my food to make sure I'm getting in enough calories - I tend to get to the afternoon and have only consumed 400 or 500 calories. I got my daughter one and she's lost 30 lbs using it since January.

I can't believe how light I feel - and I know there's more to come. I posted some of these before but here are some highlights of my success, so far:

Now fitting in size 12 pants - used to be 16 or 18 (Apple body type) and Large misses shirt (No longer searching out the Plus size clothing)

Can walk up stairs to my 4th floor office without gasping for breath (as I've done before)

Sat in a plane seat without the tray hitting my stomach.

And today, I noticed how far I am from the steering wheel in my car!

There are so many Non-scale Victories! - but those are the most obvious.

Good luck to everyone. It's the best thing I've ever done for myself.
