Linda, hi. I'm fascinated by the whole weight loss surgery thing. Thanks for keeping everyone up to date.
I have a question. You say the scale keeps calling your name, and from a human nature standpoint I can certainly understand that. You want to know what your new digestive system is doing for you!
What I'm wondering is this: did your doctor speak to you about having a "time window" in which you are likely to lose most or all of your weight? I've read this from other WLS patients. If so, does that enter into your thinking? Are you trying to lose as much as you can as fast as you can?

ah but I lost more weight by: Linda
Okay, tell me how many people can go to a birthday party, and a Super Bowl party and lose two pounds that weekend?
I did and am so happy.
I am down to 241 pounds.
I try to stay away from the scale but it keeps calling my name.
