Question:

Dear Stacey, You need to give a little more information about your situation. How far out are you? But here is some information that might bring comfort as i know that when things aren't right, we become anxious. Congradulations on the weight loss so far, its great and dont forget your progress! Now, i have had times when i plataued (sp?) and would become anxious and think that was it, im done. Eating LOTS of protein may help regenerate the losing, also any kind of EXCERCISE will generate more loss. Drink your water and keep moving. You WILL REACH GOAL if you do your part. Remember, its a tool, not a cure all for what ails you. Iam open rny from 12-4-01 and im four pounds from goal. I started at 290 and im now at 149. I've had weeks though that seemed they were forever getting the scales to move. Good luck and i hope i've helped somewhat in giving you encouragement. Remember, vitamins, move move move, and water! God Bless You, Darlene N.

Darlene, check stacy's profile like I did :0)...Stacy, your surgery was 4/15, you should be able to still lose for the first 14 mos...Have you been excerising? WHat does your dtr say? Up your protein, elimiate carbs, kick up the exercise level to double of what you are doing now? Good Luck to you. Maybe you should chart what your eating on fitday.com and see what the patterns and problems are.
