GastricJoy

I totally understand how you feel. People often ask why are you losing so much weight. Like Really is that even a logical question. How about I liked you better when you were fat. I dont like the skinny you.

I need to start posting more often. I have not given up.

My name is Joy and I am a stay at home wife and mother of 4 children (11 girl, 7 boy, 6 girl, 7 month girl). I want to lose like 15 pounds. I have not worked out in a while. I plan on getting back on track. I use to go to the YMCA but I didnt renew my membership but I am going in on tomorrow and do that. Wish me luck.

So I am still 179.6 no gain and no loss.

I was told everyday (still am) that I am not eating enough or getting enough calories. Dont pay it any attention. Just use it as a way to track yourself.

I had RNY on June 4 2012 and got pregnant 2 months later. SW:268 CW:179.4 GW:160 I have actually lost most of my weight during pregnancy. In my last 3 weeks I have not lost but I have maintained. I was doing Zumba going Swimming at the YMCA and taking Aerobics Classes. I am now in my 35-36 weeks and I still walk (a little)…

Super Excited

Okay I am so totally in. I am pregnant (35 weeks) baby due on May 30. I will be 1 year post op on June 4, 2013. So for me it is going to be a challenge. I have been able to maintain my weight at 179.6. I want to get to 160 by July 4, 2013. With breastfeeding and working out I think it is a realistic goal. Any thoughts????

I like the Scared Heart Soup. Not for the DIET but because it taste good. I make the soup like one a week and my family loves it.

I have not gotten that burst of energy. Well once and that was yesterday morning. I feel dropout and lazy. I enjoy walking but never feel motivated to do it. Is it something you eat drink vitamins..... what is it. I need help.

Looks like I am in the right place. I had RNY on June 4 of this year. I am happy to be hear and share my journey with you all as well,

I just had gastric bypass (RNY) on June 4, 2012. I hate when people say its the easy way out or we want a quick fix.

We have to take medication for the rest of our lives…
