Hit 90.1 lbs today. I'm slow going like the rest, but happy overall. I need to start back with the exercise and just stay focused... Holiday stress is around the corner and I don't want to fall into old habits... I think we should all be very proud of ourselves! Everyone looks amazing and we have come so far! Great job fab febs!

Well surgery date was 2/25 I was 275lbs. 8.5 months out and down 118lbs and stalled and I think I'm ok with that for now. I weight 157lbs and am in a size 13/14 pants down from a tight 24 and my tops down from a 2-3x to a medium/large depending. I wear dresses and heels regularly now which would have never happened before. I would love to be in a smaller pants size but my baby pooch under my belly button doesn't want to go away. I'm sad my poor boobs are no more at least for me. I went from a 40D to a 36C push-up bra lol When we get our family pictures back this weekend I will post the October last year and the ones from October this year. Congrats on everyone with all your success. I'm very proud of all of us.

Hi All! It's been forever since I have been on here. I have been stalled since Aug, as well. I have an incisional hernia from the Open RNY, so surgery is Nov 19th. It has been very painful with vomiting and I still don't lose. Everyone is saying I don't eat enough, but I feel okay. I get about 900 calories in daily and at least 50 grams Protein. I have not worked out for over a month, so I am sure that is not helping me! Need absolute motivation after surgery to get walking until I am cleared, then I am joining Zumba!!!

So I'm trudging through my couch to 5 K tonight. Slowly jogging, like I'm stuck in molasses, counting seconds til I'm done....and I had a moment. During a free form run. Where my stride picked up and for about 2 minutes I actually LIKED what I was doing...then I had to slow down or I was going to die. But briefly, ever so briefly, I enjoyed it....that was wild :)

I had laparoscopic RNY and had an internal hernia. Not fun. Once I had it repaired I felt so healthy and well. I am losing again and down 101 lbs since 2/28. I have another hernia cooking but it is not causing me issues. My doc will repair it next year. Enough surgery!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
