I sometimes wonder what goes on in these peoples heads. I know that when I got back to work from surgery people would always ask me to eat with them and some still do, however most of the regulars already know that I will not eat usually what they are eating and have stopped asking me. I think a lot of people are just flat…

Thank you too everyone for your words of encouragement! I think that there is truth to all the comments on here. You guys make me feel so much better about the situation and its always nice to know that there are people that are going through the same thing.

I think for being 3 months out that is pretty normal. I can usually eat around 3-4 oz at time depending on what it is. If it is really dense protein like chicken it's around 2oz.

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement. I really need them. I think I'm gonna pur the scale up for a little while and just focus on the daily task of making the right choices.

Good Job that is great weight loss! I was hoping for around the same amount. I am only 5 pounds away for my goal of 51 pounds weight loss at the two month mark and I have two day left!! Hopefully I can do it if so that will put me at 100 pounds lost:) It's super exciting!

I think that it is great that you lost 20lbs since surgery. I am sure that if you incorporate exercise the stall will end. When I feel like I am in a stall I try to add a little bit more carbs and exercise more. There are plenty of home DVD's that you could try to get in your exercise and the best part is it is not that…

I guess I wasn't really thinking about the fact that the low calories paired with my extremely increased activity was going to make me feel so exhausted however it does make sense :) On the positive side I have lost 9 pounds this week!!!

Thanks everybody for your input and Rob you were so right about the micromanaging everyday. I was on the scale 4-5 times a day and decided that I have to stop freaking out when I see numbers that aren't moving (Now 1 time a day only). I think because I have tried to lose weight in the past and nothing seemed to work I was…

On my list of soft foods from my doctor salmon and tilapia are both on it.

I feel you on that one I lost 19 pounds immediately after surgery and then nothing for the beginning part of week two this morning I step on the scale and I was down two pounds. For a total of 21 pounds in two weeks.... It feels frustrating however if you do what your suppose to do everything will be fine and the weight…

Okay I was thinking along the same lines as you all were I just wasn't sure. Im going to try to do things a little different and break up my protein, up h20, and up cardio to see if that helps hopefully it does I really want to lose as much weight as I can within the first six months.

Yeah I am think that my body is just trying to conserve what it can because it is starving so I'm going to try to intake more calories and up my walking time and see if that works hopefully it does

Good job that is such a great accomplishment!

Good job Rob you look fantastic!

Thank you all for your positive encouragement! It means a great deal to me to have the wonderful support from all of you I am so thankful for this group...I have found that continuous reassurance from myself has helped and learning to accept the fact that my issues with food didn't appear over night and it's going to take…

Yeah I am worried about it but I think a little bit of loose skin will be better than being obese. aamber02 I agree being a tall women no one ever thinks I weigh as much as I do when I tell them.... hopefully I don't have much!

Thank you for the great ideas guys I definitely have a better idea of what things I need to purchase before surgery. I am kinda nervous but I am more excited then anything to finally get rid of this weight plus I have this daydream that I am going to be like Baywatch when I am done losing weight! :wink:

Thanks everyone for the good advice I appreciate it so much. I am obsessing over my surgery so I can't wait to have it!
