Topic: RE: How is everyone doing???
Hey Cara,
I had lap rny on 11/25/04 and have lost 129lbs. I have gone from 314 to 185 and would like to lose another 35lbs putting me at 150. My BMI started at 50.1 and is now 29.9. I started out wearing a size 24 and am now a 12 with some 10's.

and I add a scoop of protein powder to give it a boost. I've used gourmet vanilla; and strawberry kiwi protein.

Topic: RE: Body Image UPDATE A DAY AT THE BEACH
Update for everyone--I just got an E-mail from Robin explaining that she wasn't slamming us fat people, but rather couldn't believe some of the skinny meenies and older women who should know better wearing skimpy and too-tight bathing suits. Giggle.

So far so good, I'm keeping my fingers crossed (It seems too easy)


Topic: RE: need a little encouragement
yes, everyone is different. comparing ourselves to others can bring depression and discouragement. We have to look at ourselves. Are we more healthy now then we were 7 months ago? The weight loss is great; but I also consider the fact that I no longer have to take 14 pills every night to keep blood pressure, cholestrol and Type II diabetes under control. All of us had the surgery to lose weight; but some of us had co-morbidities and needed the surgery to get healthy again. I have more energy; and I feel better about myself. So look at the overall picture; keep to the plan; and never give up.
hugs to all.

Hi Jennifer
I also feel blessed. I had my surgery november 26th and have also lost 92 pounds. I am wearing a size 8 and still cannot belive how great I feel.
My bmi is 25 and I hope to lose another twenty pounds just so if I gain a little back, it won't be too bad. I hear that our weight may go up and down 10 pounds because of water weight and such after we reach our goal.
Congratulations and good luck with your adoption.
((((HUGS))))
