no long lost 100 pounds
I don't know why i've gained 2 pounds, and i know that 2 pounds isn't going to be the death of me. The only thing i can think of is that i've joined the gym and have been working out regularly now, so maybe i've gained muscle........

440/140/149 hw/cw/gw - 5'5" -300lbs -- bmi 73.2 to 24.8 :) GOAL MET 10/26/10!!.... Even made 140 September 2012. Been ranging 4-6lbs from 144-146 since then. Back to 140 December 2012, hoping to see it again after I feel better and start working out.
Kick the scale under your bed for another week. Weigh at the same time of day on the same day of the week (or month if you can stand it) to get a TRUE idea of how much weight is lost. Fluctuation is very normal in both directions.

But, I jump around a lot and I know that. I also lose in chunks a lot of times. I'll go up two, then lose 4. As you can tell, it never goes up and stays up and I can't find it contingent on my diet (like gaining weight if I have a carb fest or losing weight if I'm low carb/high protein). It's just a steady weekly loss. I average about 5-10lbs a month. Monthly weigh ins are where you should focus...record on your surgiversary dates and check your MONTHLY not DAILY status. You'll see the significant weight loss that way.

With the DS: there is no stoma, so no stoma strictures; there are no limitations (other than volume) against drinking before, during or after meals; 80% of ingested fat is malabsorbed; 98.9% of type II diabetics are CURED of this devastating disease, with data showing stable cure over 10 years out; there is the best average weight loss and most durable (average 76% excess weight loss going out 10 years) of all of the bariatric surgeries. That's why I had a DS!
