Almost 7 months

Jul 05, 2008

In the past 2 1/2 months I dropped to the lower 260's. I even managed 259 for a couple of days!  Then the see-saw ride started again.  I went back up to 263 and hung there for quite some time.  Finally, I got to got to 261 and the see-saw ride came again.  Yesterday I weighed and the scale read 259.  Please, Lord, let it start dropping again.
Have a good one......

4 1/2 month update

   I have good news about the see saw!  On the 11th I was back up to 277.  By the 15th I dropped to 273. On the 18th the scale said 273.  And on the 20th it read 268.  WOO HOO  I hope that see saw ride is over for awhile.  But, if not, I know that time will take care of everything.
   Thank you, God and please bless my support group.  I can NOT imagine my life without them!

I weighed 276 on the 7th.  My weight has been see-sawing for awhile.   I'm not having to undo buttons, snaps, or zippers on the clothes that I've been wearing to get them up or down.  Therefore, I guess my body is just adjusting to the previous weight loss.  We'll see.......
Have a good one,

   I had an appointment with Dr. Davis yesterday.  It has been 3 months and one week today since my revision.  I thank God and Dr. Davis for my WLS.  My new weight is 279.  
   I was impressed when Dr. Robert had Dr. Garth come look at the difference.  I don't see it so much, but I know the weight is gone because my clothes size is dropping.  
   Thank you, Sarita, your friendship means so much!

   It has been about 2 1/2 weeks since my last post.  I have really been stressing!  I am only at 284.  I am not very happy with that number.  I have be-bopped between 284 & 287 until I am about sick.   
   I bought a bicycle & the weather is improving.  I guess I should have gotten some inside exercise equipment with the Texas weather we've been having.  LOL
   I didn't realize that a revision would be so different from the first-go-round.  I lool forward to my Pasadena support group meetings.  My new found friends mean more that one could ever say.  Thank you all.
   Until next post...God bless you all

Let's start this update with an upbeat statement.  I weigh 285.  Woohoo  I hate the plateaus & weight gain times.   I went to a support group meeting in Pasadena.  Gosh, it is really great to see everyone each month.  I love my new friends & the ideas & advice are wonderful.  Everyone understands each other & that in itself is great.

The scales are back in my husbands shop and working.  I was hoping for more, but at least I am down to 289.  That's an even 40  pounds gone in a little over 2 months.  I thank God & my supportive friends for everything.  
Happy Valentine's Day to all

  Talk about plateaus and slow weight loss.  Well, I got off my butt and started walking on a treadmill.  My weight is now down to 292. 
  I drink 1 ounce of Bazi every morning.  I think it has helped me tremendously!  I am more alert.  I have noticed my hair and nails growing more than usual, too.  Thanks to Debra Flores for having Samuel @ the support group meeting for us to sample the Bazi.

This revision seems slow.  It has been 2 weeks since my last post.    However, I lost 4 pounds.  So as long as the weight is going - I will give it a thumbs up!

Hello my WLS friends,
   I went for my 1 month follow-up yesterday.  I weighed 298 pounds.  I didn't think that was enough, but Dr. Davis said I was doing fine.  I kept going back & forth between 305 to 309 for over a week.  I was getting pretty discouraged then it finally happened...I was down to 305 again.  The next day I weighed and I was down to 303.   WOW  What a difference a day can make.  LOL
   I am noticing inches disappearing also.  My clothes are feeling more comfortable on me.
   I met Sarita Dugat @ Dr. Davis' office.  Sarita had a revision the week before my surgery.  Afterwards, she & I shared a meal @ Pappadeau's.  Then we went to a support group meeting @ UGH.  She rode with me to meet her husband Dennis.   I think Sarita & I will be seeing each other fairly often.
