Hi Cynhiabu,

I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and that the New Year sees you make great strides in your journey to a healthier you. I'm back on the losing track, down to 304.5 so far. It's not always easy, but so far, I haven't had any of the bad stuff, sweets, cakes, pies, etc. Most of the time I don't even think about them. The hardest for me is to remember to take my vitamins 3x daily. I don't normally get that many in. Oh well, let me know how you're doing, haven't heard from you in a while.

Hi Cynhiabu,

It's been a bit since we touched base. I am almost two months out and have lost over 40 pounds since surgery. I'm in a bit of a plateau, but working my way through it. I finally asked for help online, I've always been stubborn about asking for help when I'm struggling. I get that from my Dad, he always told me that I could solve the problem on my own. Well I couldn't, so I reached out. I met with a personal trainer this today and set my bench marks and tomorrow we set up an exercise plan to get me fit again. I'm looking forward to it.

How are you doing with your exercise and work? I hope you are continuing to have success. Let me know if you need anything.

Hi Frank sorry it took so long to get back to you I hadproblems logging in. I have started adding regular food too. It has been ok I am afraid of some meats. I hate throwing up, but all in all everything is going ok. I have lost 40 pounds so far, I loveworking out but rightnow i have i dont know som kind of mental block and just dont go to the gym.

I hop everything is still going well for you . It goes both ways if you needanything or just want to talk i am here

Hi Cynhiabu5517,

I had my surgery on Oct 17th and am making good progress. I'm beginning to add regular food to my diet, being sure to leave out the "bad stuff". So far, while I have had a few doubts along the way, wondering what I did this for, I am very happy with my journey and decision to have WLS. Unfortunately I am from Wake Forest NC, but this is the internet age. If you need anything or just want to talk, just IM me.
