WLS update Week 38... SAVOR EACH MOMENT....

[jojobean003]

Hi how long do plateaus last?

[phargrove060708]

I really enjoed all of your videos that you have put on the internet I find them very educational and inlightening. I am 1 week post op and I decied to look to u tube for encouragement and found you. What has inspired you to give so much and to share? Do you find it more fulfilling and motivating to do the videos? I am a little shy and would like to be more like you, do you have some advice.

Abby,

I happened to put the same name on a video I recorded yesterday. I thought attaching it might be a nice alternative to recording the same ideas here.

Thanks for sharing your story.

Sincerely,

Richard

I've been watching your progress and I'm so happy for you. I had my wls in december and I'm down 85 lbs so far. I started at 328 and am now down to 243, I still have another 43-45 to go. I feel so much better. Thank you for sharing your story with us. Keep up the good work.

you look great i just had my surgury may 1st,do you have any advice for me?

[newlife4me73]

Thanks for the video, but my surgeon said that the rapid weight los was 6-9 months, but the RNY will still have malabsorbion and your pouch still is not at it's largest until at least 12-18 months. My PCP also stated that the malabsorbion is at least 12-18 months (because of the antibiotics). You will still lose due to the RNY if you follow the rules, just not as rapidly. I do get the what you're saying. Thanks for making this video! *hugs*

I hear ya about phasing into 'regular' diet. I'm 31.5 weeks out and don't have a shake every single day anymore. My weight is very slow coming off now, but my clothes sizes are still going down. Confusing and yet frustrating. But still good.

I am panicky about how close I am to goal, as well. Great advice on savoring the moment.

take care - jenn

I love your insight into the process. Just had RNY on 1/26 and find a lot of support and enthusiasm from your vlog. Keep it up!

You are just too cute! You're looking fab as always...you are rocking this! Good advice about savoring the moments-one I try to practice. I'm hoping this "honeymoon phase" lasts long enough to firmly incorporate good food and exercise habits. You're an inspiration Sista!

[playboysgirl08]

You are a role model !! I know I don't know you personally, but ya make us sisters PROUD!!! Great Job.

[blkfem4whtmen]

You look so awesome!!!!!!

You know I have realized that  when I work out (running-jog-walk) 45mins for a week period every day or at least 3-4 times and then I take off 3 days, I see results then. I eat crappy but I just try to balance that with working out.

You're so funny! YOu look great and keep it up!!
