Wow it's been a wild ride, best time of my life!
Hi everyone!
Its been a long time since I have checked in! I miss everyone! I first off want to say I LOVE my gastric bypass! I feel amazing and have lost 100 lbs since my highest weight, and 80 lbs since surgery (6/26/12).
Wow, its been crazy, ups and downs and all arounds, but I think I am finally getting used to this new lifestyle.
Have had some issues lately though...I haven't lost ANY weight since Decemeber 8th....WTH?! I know holidays were near, but I mean, cmon, I can hardly eat, and I avoid carbs almost completly. Could be a plateu??
I have learned so much about myself through this adventure, and have made it through many mental challenges.(head hunger :)
Hope to hear from everyone, and see how everyone is doing!
Congrats on the loss. I can say that I personally stayed within the same 3 lbs from months 8-9 (Thanksgiving and Christmas) and it was frustrating at times. I am now almost 10 months out and have lost another 5 lbs in THREE DAYS!!! I started logging my food again and I think it made a difference for me. Whenever I hold myself accountable for what I eat I make better choices and have less chances of "slipping".
I agree I love my RNY and it has been an amazing ride thus far... only 11 lbs to goal for me!!!
