Topic: RE: I lost 82 pounds so ...
It sounds like a lot of us are hitting a major stall about 5 mos out. I guess it's the worst stall of all! I'm just ready to start losing again! lol
Topic: RE: I think I hit a plateau.
I've been on a major plateau since about the middle of December. I'm attributing it to a couple things.. the holidays and the sudden loss of my father Dec. 29. I've finally just stared dropping a couple pounds a week ago. I will 'fess up that I haven't been hitting the gym that much. Ive been a bit in the blues with the winter and my father's loss.
The worst part.. I've plateaued at 99 (!!!!) pounds. I've been going back and forth from 94-99 lbs lost for the past three weeks and it's MADDENING!
I can't WAIT for spring to come so I can restart my daily walks!


Topic: Good cholesterol is LOW...
So I went in to see the staff at the weight management center and my labs were all just fine...except my good cholesterol is low and I'm supposed to eat more fruit. Go figure, eh? :::munching on blackberries:::

CONGRATULATIONS!! Looks like we are pretty close. I've lost 81 lbs and am sitting at 151. So I assume its normal. my weight started slowing at the beginning of this month though. I'm trying for another 24 lbs to lose though. (((fingers crossed)))

I lost 82 pounds so far and am doing great. I am a whopping 148 noe and am still losing about 3 pounds a week. I am slowing down a bit and think I will maintain my weight at 140. I this usual for gastric bypass patients after only 5 months?

Topic: RE: Hair Loss
Hair loss
I too have some hair loss and am about to get a hair piece if I lose to much. I get enough protien and vitamins but I guess this is natural for gastric bypass patients.
I looked into hair pieces and found some that would do very well until I get regrowth. If interested there are plenty of places that are low in price on the internet. I really am happy with the weight loss and really, if thats has happened to me is a little hair I guess it's no big deal. I also use niozin shampoo and treatment products to help.

I am going to go with what the first reading on my scales was this morning. I dont' know if my scales are going out or what but I have about a 4 pound weight range. So here it is.
surgery Date: 8/3/07
Surgery Weight: 250
Today's weight: 172
Total lost: 78 pounds
Like many of you my weight loss has REALLY slowed down. It's taken me a 2 months to lose what I was losing in 1 month. I am only 28 pounds from goal. But I have decided to go for an extra 10 pounds just so that I have a buffer to work with. I guess we will see if that works. At the rate I am going it will be August before I get off this 28 pounds.LOL
