I had my surgery 12/9/10.  I am almost 5 months out.  I can definitely tell a difference in myself.  I still have "fat girl" tendencies tho.  Like asking for a table at a restaurant when I know I can fit in "most" booths.  I don't go back and see the surgeon for another month but I would love to know where everyone else is at this point too.  

I am eating between 600-700 calories a day on average.  Definitely not getting enough exercise in but it's tough.  I have a 16 month old baby at home.  Now that my schedule at work changed I will be able to get more in the morning.  I did 2.5 miles on the treadmill yesterday but today I think I'm only going to be able to get some wii fit in.  I am getting between 60-80 grams of protein in.  I take my vitamins everyday.  I set a timer on my phone so I can remember them otherwise I know that I would forget.  

I am excited to be 10.4 lbs away from 100.  I started my journey at 336 and I am currently 246.6. 

Is there anyone else at 5 months?  How is everyone else doing?

You are doing wonderfully!  I had my surgery on 12/14/10, so I'm a few days behind you.  I'm eating roughly the same calories as you, and not getting a lot of exercise either.  I know that's an area where I need to step it up, but like you, my schedule gets in the way.  I haven't lost as much weight as you, though I guess I was a "lighter weight" than you to start with.  Either way, I'd say you're right on track and rockin' along.  Keep up the great work!
