Awesome's Weight Loss Journey

by Linda J Lombardo
(Marlborough MA USA)

I am the biggest in this group on our workteam to Dominica

RNY gastric bypass, January 3, 2008, 4 weeks ago. My highest weight was 340# more than 18 months before surgery and 263# on December 20th just prior to surgery. Current weight: 243#

I wish I had known sooner that this operation was being performed in our state. I only read newspaper articles that mentioned problems, not really showing successes. I love my doctor.

...Scale Whore confessions
by: Jayleigh

My issue with the scale is more about confirming that I have done everything right... seeing that number be the same or lower than it was that morning is a high. I also don't worry when it goes up, slightly, or stalls. I know that, without my surgery, I would be gaining, gaining, gaining... and my body is just adjusting to the new food intake, exercise and healthy treatment it is receiving! I had surgery (RNY) in Feb of 09 and have lost over forty pounds. This is the most amazing thing I have ever done for myself. Every day is a blessing and challenge! The scale is my way of keeping myself honest and rewarding myself for every day... it is positive reinforcement. I look in the mirror and see a difference, but my brain is still "fat." I'm a scale whore, believe you me!
