    just found your response to my cry for help re:65+ thanks for caring. I will take your advice and delete and start over. Lovely picture and you give off a very positive vibe....my surgery is April 17 not too far off. Some experience as I have had a band, lost weight but too much internal discomfort. Had it removed ($$$$$) and weight started creeping back, depression from another sense of failure. Back on my feet and looking forward to the future UPS & DOWNS. It's not just food it's love...
  3. Hi Carolann, just checking in to see how you're doing. I'm experimenting with my food and activies this week to see if I can start losing again. I hope things are going better for you...Keep in touch. Dianna
  4. Hi, things are going ok. Yesterday was my 3 month mark and down 40 lbs. I have had a lot of stalls and slow loss, but it's coming off slow but sure. How are things going for you? It's not the easy way out that most people think. Are things going smooth for you? I hope you're doing well. Stay in touch and keep me posted. Dianna

    I read your profile and I think you will not only reach your goal but i think in a year you will be down to 150 lbs. This is an educated guess and a gut feeling!Just thought i would pass it along to you!
  7. I am in Goose Creek, just outside of Charleston, SC. How are you feeling so far? I've waited a long time to be able to have the surgery. So far I've lost 32 lbs and have around 55 to go. I love this site...it has given me so much good info. Take care and remember to get all the liquids in if you can. Nice to meet you too. Stay in touch and if I can answer any questions, fire away! Dianna
  8. Well my surgery was Thursday, all went well, worst part was drinking that awful tasteing liquid for the checking for leaks in new tummy... Surgery Thursday at 11, home Friday at 12.. whoo hoo... Since I had not medical issues or problems I got to come home just 25 hours later. I have done well here at the house, I am not getting enough protein right now I know, but slowing I will get there. My husband has been GREAT! At times I think wow I have realy done this and hopefully in a few months I wil lbe a lot lighter
  9. Surgery tomorrow! whoo hoo...

by carolann on 03-13-2012 at 08:06 AM
Okay I have not lost any weight in about 3 weeks and this is getting OLD! I am like am I eating to much, is this a stall- I am guessing that it is but dang how long do they last? I will be 2 months out on March 26th, I so far have lost 35lbs. What are you guys eating as far as amounts. I am worried I am going to fail at this. Thanks guys!!
