Cindy, I completely understand where you're coming from. I had my surgery only 10 days before yours and I, too, have slowed in the weight loss department. I have hit mini-plateaus here and there, but I just keep at it and I eventually break through. Remember to eat properly, take your vitamins and exercise! Mix up your exercise routine every once in a while so that your body doesn't get used to what you're doing. In other words, keep it guessing so it keeps getting rid of the weight. Most importantly, keep your chin up and have faith in yourself. Also, remember that EVERYONE is different and we all lose at different rates. I fully expected to have 100 pounds gone by my 6-month post-op mark, but was somewhat disappointed with myself when I was only at 74 lbs gone. Once I visited my surgeon for my 6-month check-up and found that he was quite pleased with my progress, I decided that it was OK that I didn't make it to -100 that soon and that I would NOT beat myself up about it and just party when I hit that landmark. Hang in there!!! You'll get there!

Man u fell off the face of the earth How is it going? yea, i remember u... i those dimples... how could i forget? Nice to see u again.. keep in touch!!! Nitro

Yep statrting over is what we are doing, being given a second chance in life.. enjoy all the small things again including our smaller bodies..Congrats

Ok it is muscle weakness and the excess skin hanging down and pulling on your weak muscles or something like that is what was explained to me by my pcm.

Please, keep me updated on what the Plastic surgeon says about the backpain and tummy tuck. I Would love to hear what he/she would have to say.
