My surgery was 12-14-07

I know how you feel. This was a last option for me because even strictly following weight watchers for 2 months I only lost 2.5 pounds.

My body just does not lose weight easily at all. So even those months when I did only drop single digits I consoled myself because without the surgery it would have been a much lower number.

Some days I wanted to obliterate my scale with a hammer because it would vary by 7 lbs in the same day....sometimes even the same hour. I was becoming obsessive with it and so D hid it from me for my mental well being.

so you can see why I don't weigh in and update that often anymore. I was so encouraged when I got my report from Curves today because even if your not dropping pounds, you know for SURE that you are losing inches.

You WILL get there hon.


**edit**

I just noticed that we are practically pod mates and that we have almost lost the same amount of weight. We sure have alot in common. If WLS is a journey we are on the same road together. Life is better with a travelling buddy
