My legs (especially the right leg, which had the hip replacement) still look like sausages, and I'm still holding onto a TON of water, almost 2 weeks after my surgery.  It's really annoying!

I weighed last Wednesday, 8/6/08, and the scale read 272.2. That's a loss of exactly 10lbs from  the previous time I weighed which was on 7/26/08. Ten pounds in eleven days at 8 months out? I'll take it. Of course the down side is that I probably won't lose but 2 or 3 lbs from now until the next time I weigh which will be on 8/26/08. Anyways....I'm down 183 lbs from my first consult and 170 lbs from the day of surgery on 11/26/07.

Lance, I have taken Lyrica twice now, and made me retain water like crazy.  It got to where I could hardly bend my toes.  Seem like every joint hurt from the swelling.  I just can't do it.  So, may very well be water retention.  Michael

I didn't notice any retention but I do know as soon as I stopped taking it the scale moved for me so I'm just not going to take it anymore. I don't know if that's the definitive reason but at this point I can't be taking anything that counter-effects my weight loss surgery it's just not worth it to me. Even though Lyrica is a pretty good drug for nerve pain I'd just rather with the nerve pain and by thin.

Lap Band on 07/28/08 with
We're having Sunday on Monday here in Washington.

Pre-surgery (and high point): 332

Surgery (7/28/08):  324

Today: 308

This week: 5 pounds

Not bad.  The doc told me not to even worry about weight loss until after my first  fill (I'm lap-banded), but so far I feel full after eating really small portions.  I understand that may change, so -- oh well.

I'm no longer "morbidly" obese, just obese!  I was carrying a load of stuff into the bedroom last night, and my pants actually fell off.  Good week.

First goal: Week-long canoe trek in summer '09.  Second goal: lose 107 pounds.  Third goal, attain any weight that starts with a "1."

Started at 332, current weight: 310
