Thank you Rebecca, I did have a wonderful birthday, I may be 51 years old but I have to admit I feel much younger after losing 150 lbs. much much younger.

Thank you Lizzie, I did indeed have a Happy Birthday. My goal was to hit 156, that gave me a normal BMI, probably for the first time in 40 years so any pound I lose now just makes me estatic.

Sher I'll keep your Husband in my prayers. I hope his surgery goes well.
I finally broke the 200 mark. I'm at 199. I'm stil losing, just slowly.
I never set a weight goal for myself. As long as I did the best I could with my supplements, protein, water, food and exericse then I consider myself a success.
I'm finally back to exercising after having to take a month off due to surgery on my vericose veins. I need two additional surgeries for that (one on each leg) I'm not sure when I'll schedule it. I'm not looking forward to being so inactive again.
Good luck to both of you with the PS consult.
I hope everyone is doing well

Not much going on with this board here. I hope everyone is doing well. Lets have roll call.
I'll start.
I have not gotten to my goal yet, but I am still trying. I am eating well and tracking my food intake and exercise daily. I am losing about 1 lb a week on the average. Need to lose about 10 llbs to get to my personal goal.
I am seeing a ps tomorrow to get a consult, not sure what I will have done since I have some other issues that are more pressing to get repaired, like my left knee.
ALso my DH is having a serious operation in a few weeks. So I am waiting for him to have a full recovery before I have any surgery.
Hope everyone is having a good start to their summer.
Take care
love to you all

Topic: RE: Still FAT
It certainly does. Have you considered therapy? I'm not being judgemental, but you do sound defeated, angry and depressed altogether. I just had a consult for it myself. In my case it's because I don't think I ever really addressed my emotional eating issues and even tho I can't eat the way I did pre-WLS, I still sometimes want to shove food into my mouth. I think it's a great idea that you are working on figuring out why and I would see if you can get the result about the stomach stretching. There is a new procedure that they use to fold over the excess opening in the stoma so that the opening is smaller again. I don't know how many surgeons have performed this, but it's worth asking if that is your issue.
I hope how every things go for you that you find peace.
Take care,
Sue
