Suzanne, congratulations on your weight loss. From what I have read from other long time out post ops is that their weight eventually evened out and they stopped losing. Some had a little rebound and found their weight settled at a more healthy weight for them. So if you are eating healthy and taking your vitamins and getting a yearly checks with your surgeon and you feel good I would try not to worry too much, but I hope that you are being followed by your surgeon.
Take care

I am below my ideal weight (my ideal weight is about 140-lbs for height and I am at between 129 and 131 depending on the day). I am happy and feeling good though 
So I guess that is what is important. I am losing about 1-lb a week or so also still....though I am trying desparately to stop that!
For a while I was worried about not being able to stop losing weight but that was just too stressful. I have now decided to just eat healthy, exercise, and not worry about it so much. It seems to have helped a lot, if nothing else it has helped my emotional well being 
I am glad to hear y'all are doing so well! Keep up the good work

Lizzie, thanks for your prayers, I am sure things will go well.
Congratulations on breaking the 200 mark! It seems like most of us who have not met our goal are losing slowly, but at least we are still losing..
It must be hard to be layed up with your surgeries. After my husband recovers I need to have a knee replaced. I know that that will limit my activities for quite a while. My consult with the ps was ok. He felt he could accomplish good results with a TT, breast lift?implants, and arm lift, he wasn't real encouraging on the thigh lift. I don't know when I will be ready for ps, but I wanted to get an idea about things ahead of time to plan and choose what I would do.
Take care

Shelly, I am sure you can get to your personal goal, congratulations of meeting your doctors goal.
Are you having surgery on the 24th or just having consult? I am interested on what you doctor says about working on the thighs, the surgeon I met with wasn't too encouraging about the outcome.
Take care

Kathleen, that's great that you are still losing. I just had a ps consult, not sure when I will have any ps done, my husband is schedualed for surgery in a few weeks and after he recovers I want to have my knee replaced before I do anything else.
Have a great summer, keep up the good work.

Hello Sher and the rest of the April board. All is well on the Home front here. Hope everyone has a Great 4th, Our Independence day.
I am losing about a pound a week, it is slow, but it is moving again. I have lost 10 inches in a month so my body is just readjusting. I am going to wait until I am about 18 months post-op before I start looking into PS. I have to save up money to get a TT and more. So it will down the line some before I can do anything.
I would like to lose at least 40 to 50 more pounds to get to goal. We will just have to wait and see what happens. At least I am not gaining, thank God.
Hope everyone has a great summer.
Kathleen

Hi Sher, I read the forum at once daily but haven't posted much. I hope everyone is doing good and enjoying the sun and summer. I know, for me, it is great this year. I can do so many things I couldn't do, even last year. I am still losing some. Had slowed way down and then the last two months have lost about 14 pounds for a total of 150.2 pounds. I want to lose about 20 more then pursue PS. I am in the process of changing jobs so won't have vacation time built up for a while so may be a year or two out. I hope just a year! Keep on losing everyone and posting here to keep us updated. Julia
