I am 18 months out from my by-pass. I am down a 136 lbs. This site is amazing! I joined 371 days ago. It helps keep me motivated to work out daily and to be accountable for my food intake!

You may of heard you could gain some weight back, ( I am so sick of hearing it) I know several people that are 3-10 years out and they have no put any weight back on. It's up too you and what you want to achieve. I decided I owe it to myself to give it a 110% or I wasn't being fair to myself. I am so glad I have this attitude!!

You look great and you are beaming with confidence!!! Keep up the great dedication!

I am still losing but it is at a very slow rate maybe a 1 lb to 1 1/2 lbs a month now. I am not really pushing hard to lose more weight. I am focused on toning and muscle mass.

Add me as a friend if you'd like!

Working in a Wellness Center that has a weight loss surgery clinic as part it, I have seen people who have had the surgery and gain weight back. Like any approach, there will be people who succeed at it and others who fail. Those who fail attacked the symptom and not the problem. The problem was their relationship with food and overconsumption. So people didn't address the food addiction issue regain.

I remember the two week liquid diet I had to do. When I started it I was 280. Day of my surgery I was down to 259. I count my weight loss from the day of my surgery. I weigh 164 now. I have absolutely no regrets at all. I feel better, and you will too. If you have any questions you can always email me. Add me if you want :-)
