Topic: Am I the only one struggling?
I'll soon be at my 6 month mark and Im struggling. I thought it would be moving a LITTLE faster than this. Im at 30 lbs down. Maybe Im just comparing myself to others...yeah, I know Im not supposed to do that.
I thought eating LESS (Im talking AT LEAST half of what I used to eat if not more) and making better choices of the foods I do eat would make a difference. Im feeling like Im going to be fat forever. I have to FIGHT for every pound. Just when I get a fill and think Im doing great and that this is it....BAM! restriction is gone again.
Im just feeling like a failure and feeling sorry for myself right now.
Thanks for reading.

CONGRATS on your improvements!!!
I am doing WONDERFUL!!!
My 6 months is 8/09- and I have lost a total of 136 pounds!!
CRAZY stuff- but wonderful!!
My energy is thru the roof- work has become easier and I am more focused.....
I LOVE to buy clothes now and don't have to buy them on line at those "specialty" shops- I can shop at "regular" stores. I'm between sizes- am in an 18 thats getting a bit big and baggy- can wear some 16's!!
I havn't done my monday measurements yet- but as of last week I have lost over 83 inches!!
I love my sleeve!!

Topic: February people how you doing?
I am six months post op today 8-3-09. I walk 2-6 miles a day. I have more energy than I ever had before. I haven't used my asthma inhaler in two months and I am off my c-pap machine for my sleep apnea. My doctor said he wants to do another sleep test on me but he said I dont need it.My career is going great I have more energy to be able to do five one hour massages a day .Depening on the make of clothes I can either be in a 16 or an 18 all I know it's much better than being in a 24.
So tell me how have you accomplishments been? What is your greatest accomplishment thus far?
My start weight was 276
My weight now is 211
I have lost 65 pounds to date
My goal weight is 145

Congrats to all of u****ting our 6 month mark. I just had to share. I hit the 100 pounds gone forever mark. I have lost 40 inches from chest, hips and waist and my BMI is 27.6. I am no longer obese. I thank God everyday for my RNY and know without Him I could not do it. Thanks for letting me share.
