6 Months Out
on November 30, 2007 4:56 am
Finally!!!!!!!  I am not in a stall and have lost 43 pounds to date.  The only thing I can say is that I wish I had done this years ago.

The only down side is dating.  I find it hard because I don't want to tell people that I just meet about my surgery and they don't understand why I eat so little!  I just say that I don't have a big appetite and that I usually eat several small meals a day rather than three large ones! I recently started dating someone exclusively and he knows so hopefully our relationship will work out and I will not have this problem anymore (lol)!

3 months and a few days (Surgery was May 23)

I am down 34 pounds!!!!!!!!!  So that means I have lost almost half of my goal weight.  I am soooooooooo excited but it is really slow.  I hope that I can be at goal by Christmas.  We'll have to see.  I know when you get closer to goal it gets harder.  

It is so awesome to have such great support on this board.  It is such a help to know that other people have been successful in their journies!

About Two Months & Two Weeks Out

I have lost 30 pounds.  I have about 45 pounds to go until I reach goal.  I have been in somewhat of a funk because I will be 40 years old on Monday!  I tried on a skirt the other day and could not believe that I was able to wear a size 10 in the regular misses department!  I hope to be thin before I make 41 lol!

Two Months Post OP
on July 23, 2007 9:41 pm
I am two months post op today.  I have lost a total of 27 pounds.  I will need to loose about 44 more pounds to reach my goal of 125.  When I get to 125, I may try to loose down to about 115, we will just have to see.

Anyway, I am feeling great!  I love my sleeve!!!!!!!!!!

My Story

I have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.  I was diagnosed really young, about 14.  I have struggled with my weight since then.  I do not remember not being on a diet!

Other than my weight story--I am a 39 year old divorced mother of 2.  My son is 13 and my daughter is 10.  I stay really busy between baseball and gymnastics! 

I am a professional career woman.  I have decided to have this surgery because I am tired of failing!  I am also tired of being referred to as the fat girl.  It is ashame that women (especially) are judged by our appearance.   Society can be so cruel.
