- It's been 7 months and 72 lbs. I am at 168 lbs. The weight loss has slowed to about 5 lbs. a month but my size keeps going down. 14's are too big but not all 12's fit yet. I wore a CONSERVATIVE two piece bathing suit to the pool this weekend and...
- Hi- I have never dumped so I am not sure if I did or had a hypoglycemic reaction (hoping it was dumping as I can control that better from all I've read.) I had "no sugar added" frozen yogurt and added about 1 TBLSP hot fudge. The nutrition label...
- Hi all- My hubby and I took my Dad (88 yrs old) to the Amish Country then to CT (where we used to live) for 2 weeks. It's nice to go away but even better to come home. There was a heat wave in CT and it was pretty miserable for the first week- not...
- My husband and I went to Atlanta to visit friends last weekend. The four of us rented a boat and spent 4 hours on a lake. We anchored in a cove and swam.. had a great time. I swim at the gym but haven't bought new bathing suits since last...
- I finally figured out how to post photos on my page and now am working on updating my profile picture. :} Kathy
- Went to my monthly support group this week. One of the gals shared that she is 8 months out and has stopped losing for the past 3 months. The first question the leader asked her was "Are you drinking before during and 30 minutes after your meals?"...
- I just feel happy. That's all. I am at 183 lbs today and feel great. Started this journey at 240 exactly 5 months ago today. My clothes look great, so many NSVs especially people saying "you look amazing" and the majority don't know I had bypass....
- Our fourth grandchild was born yesterday. Landon John weighed in at 9 lbs!!! That makes three boys and one girls. Going to stay with them in CT for a week on Saturday. :)
- As I was dust busting the bathroom floor this morning to clean up the hair I am noticing ( not major but noticable on the floor and in the shower)' I thought how great it would be if we lost the hair on our legs too!!!!!
- I was hoping not to have to go shopping for work clothes this summer but I don't think I can avoid it. (I shopped "in my sister's closet" and got several pairs of capris and shorts in various sizes so I am ok w/ casual clothes.) I have two great...
- I weighed in at 190 today- 50 lbs. since surgery on December 10th. I lost 10 lbs this month which is alot for me. My size 16's are baggy and 14's a little snug so I'm in limbo size-wise but happy about it. I know I look good and that makes me...
- Great group last night. A nutritionist (the one I have seen) came and we talked about eating out, eating in general and we shared info and tips. I have heard it all before but it is good to hear it again because its easy to become complacent and...
- I love my monthly support group- folks from every stage of gastric bypass and always informative topics. My nutritionist is speaking tomorrow on "Eating Out after GBS." I'll let you know if I learn any great pearls of wisdom.On another topic, I am...
- My older sister has three closets and tons of clothes that she never wears especially now that she's retired. I was in Florida for several days and went "shopping"in her closets with her blessing. I have a bunch of "new" clothes and the best thing...
- I'm going to Florida tomorrow til next Wed. for my Dad's 88th birthday. He will be excited to see me since the last time he was at our home I was 10 days post-op. I've lost 45 lbs since then so I'm anxious to see my daughter who lives down there...
