Hi everyone,

I've been lurking, but wanted to introduce myself and let you know

what a great support group this is...I've found so much information

on here that is relative to someone PostOp like myself.

My surgery was done 11/14/2001 at USC hospital by Dr. Namir Katkhouda.

At 1 yr postop, I was down 99 lbs and am now down 107 lbs at 18 mos.

My weight loss stopped pretty much at the 12 month point and I still

would like to lose about 60 more lbs, so I've recently been doing

Atkins and starting again to work out (water aerobics and racquetball

are my favorites, though I injured myself and so can only do water

aerobics right now).

I'm getting married July 4th and would love to get under 200, and am

striving diligently to do so. My weight had bounced around and

settled at 238.5 from a low of 231.5. With Atkins for the past 2

weeks I'm back down to the low, but geeze I'm wondering why it is so

hard to get beyond this point. I'm drinking protein drinks, sticking

to Atkins (20-25 carbos a day) and drinking 100oz of water...also

taking my vitamins. I'm happy to have jump started my weightloss

again but my weight seems stuck (I lost those 7lbs the first week and

nothing this week!) Any suggestions?

Anyway it is a pleasure to be a member of this group and I'm looking

forward to talking to you and getting to know you.
