Down 2 pounds this morning. Finally hit 80 pounds gone. Yipppeee. Hope to lose a bit more before I hit another stand still. It gets so discouraging. Never thought I'd be so excited for two pounds, but boy am I!!!http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,12412/Thu, 26 Oct 2006 04:53:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,12412/I feel like I'm singing the same old song, but my weight loss has almost come to a stand still. I lost two pounds in September and so far only one pound for October. Of course I am disappointed, but trying to keep my chin up. I never could have ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7138/Tue, 08 Aug 2006 00:00:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7138/8-8-06 Weight loss still seems to be stalled. I am trying very hard not to be discouraged. I have read so much about plateaus and how long they can last. It's still frustrating though. That coupled with my massive hairloss is making me want to pout a bit, but how ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7243/Sun, 23 Jul 2006 00:00:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7243/7-23-06 Since I last posted I have lost a grand total of ONE POUND. It's a bit frustrating, but looking at the big picture, I'm closing in on 70 pounds lost in just over 4 months. I could never have done that without Dr. Ungson and DS. I sometimes feel ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7242/Sat, 01 Jul 2006 00:00:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7242/7-1-06 ONEDERLAND!!!! Finally, the scale has moved. I have been hanging out around 202-203 for the last few weeks. What a wonderful surprise when I stepped on the scale this afternoon and saw 199.0! I'm about a week shy of being 4 months out. I am soooo happy things are ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7241/Wed, 24 May 2006 00:00:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7241/5-24-06 Still losing...slow but sure. Officially down 50 pounds in less than 3 months. I'm happy, but sure don't want it to stop! I'm down several pant sizes and people are really noticing the loss. I'll be going for my 3 month labs soon. Keeping fingers crossed that it's all ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7000/Sat, 22 Apr 2006 00:00:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,7000/4-22-06 FINALLY!!! The scale has moved. It was only 2 pounds, but I will take it. I've been retaining fluid again. Just finishing up with Aunt Flo's visit. She hasn't paid a call in 8 months. I was really hoping she was gone for good-not! Anyway, SHE may be the ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,6998/Sun, 09 Apr 2006 00:00:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,6998/4-9-06 Well I've made it past my first month post op. I am down 38 pounds, so certainly no complaints there. I am still having a lot of acid and pain. Dr. Ungson has me taking 2 prilosec a day now. It does enable me to get some fluids in. ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,6999/Thu, 06 Apr 2006 00:00:00 -0700http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,6999/4-16-06 In kind of a funk right now. Went back to work on Monday. Not too bad until Friday. Fridays are notorious for being busy. We had 7 cases added on. No breaks, no lunch. I was in real pain by the time we finished our last patient. Haven't been ... http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,6997/Thu, 23 Mar 2006 00:00:00 -0800http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/291172/blog/action,comments/blog_post_id,6997/3-23-06 Eating is still a struggle for me. I simply cannot consume more than 4 or 5 bites...no matter what I'm trying to eat. I know I'm still not getting my protein OR my fluids in. I work on it, but my tummy just does not want to be bothered. ...
