    Hi I have another question for you. I have been in a stall for almost 4 weeks. I am beside myself that I am not going to continue to lose. I know that it just can;t be . I am eatting about 800 calories a day and 99% of it is protein. I am trying to get more exercise in as I am doing 3-4 days of 15-20 minutes. Did you have a long stall?

    Thanks for checking in on me, I am doing good, you however are doing phenomenal!!! You have lost almost 200 lbs!! WOW, YOU ARE ROCKIN YOUR SLEEVE LIKE CRAZY!!! I am losing very slow, about 1 lb a week, but I still track my food and calories and protein on My Fitness Pal and I am eating about 700 to 850 calories per day, when I was trying to stick to 700, I could go over all the time and feel bad, and the weight wasn't coming off, so I increased the calories a little bit and try to eat the extra in protein, and it seems steady if not fast. I try to exercise 3 or 4 times a week, but life just keeps getting in the way this time of year, the Holidays are such a busy time it's hard. How about you, how is your life, other than your weight loss, are ya hangin in there????

    Wow you are an inspiration to me. I am coming from numbers like you did and to see how well you are doing helps me. I have stalled for almost a month now ,I am trying not to focus on the scale and on how I feel. Do you mind telling me what you eat calorie wise and what exercising you do? thanks

    It sounds like you are doing wonderful!! I'm having surgery in 6 days and can't wait! I'm hoping for great success like you but I recognize everyone is different. Any tips or advice you can give? What has your diet and exercise plan been like?

One year surgerversary

by ShannaBanana on 03-02-2014 at 08:30 PM
Match 1st was one year ago I had my surgery. This has definitely been a challenging journey. There has been good days and bad days. Days I jumped with joy and days I cried. The stalls were very frustrating. I'm in one now and has really made me mad. I set a goal to reach by one year and didn't make it.
I'm very happy with my progress. I've worked really hard to get were I'm at.
I still don't eat Bread, corn, tortillas etc...i stick strictly with protein. I still have a problem eating

6 Months Update.....

by ShannaBanana on 09-01-2013 at 09:13 PM
Well its been six months today. I can hardly believe it. Time is flying by.[I][It seems like just yesterday I was anticipating surgery. Even though its been, and still is, allot of determination, will power and trial and error, I'm hanging in there. I've never been the one to stick with a diet after a stall before surgery. But now, its totally different. I'm bound and determined to get this weight off, even when i get frustrated from stalls.
My weight lose is slowing down some but still

HERE IT IS......4 months update.

by ShannaBanana on 07-08-2013 at 07:14 AM
Sorry, it's a few days late. Been really busy lately. Well it's been four months now and I think I may have reached 3 of my goals.
1st goal is.....I've lost 105lbs. I'm stoked. 100lbs GONE. I can hardly believe it. Yes the stalls still makes me mad and frustrated. But excited to see the scale move when it finally does. I've lost (I think, if i remember correctly) 55 inches total.
2nd goal is...... TWO...TWO...TWODERVILLE!!! WHOOP WHOOP!!!! I haven't been in the 200s for about 17 yrs
