Monday Morning Weigh Ins

Lori you are not alone .. it seems like the weight is coming off slower and slower every week and I am so paranoid that I will stop losing alltogether!

Ditto!!! I have majorly slowed and I'm paranoid too!!! I was up during the week- but the weekend the scale came back down. Hang in there!!! Holly

Hey again Lea, one thing I read a long time ago was that the lower your bmi, the less weight you will lose. Each month we will lose a percentage of our excess body weight. The more you have lost in the past, means that your amounts are going to be smaller each week. Don't think you are going to stop all together this soon. But if you do percentages, you will probably notice that you are losing at the same rate. But 5% of 300 pounds is going to be more than 5% of 200 pounds but you are still losing 5% each week. Does that make sense???

Lori... I am right there with you! I already miss the days of 7 pound losses in a week. Seems like so long ago. But, I do know that anything lost now will likely not come back...not like the old days! So, I will be the first one on here yelling that I made it under 200 if that should happen by next Monday...but I have the feeling that I will be racing several of you January Ladies for the honor of that first post next week! In the meantime...I wait. Hugs..Suz

I think there must be some mean ugly evil force at work stopping us from getting to Onderland...holding us steady at 200-205 lbs for so long just to torture us...ughhhh!!!! Waiting with you! Lori

You are definitley not alone!! I whine every week when I only loose 1.4 pounds or so..But I was gaining that much before the surgery. So you are normal, or as normal as I am!! (which may not be a good thing)

Happy Monday everyone!! This was a decent week for me. HIghest Weight- 248 Day of Suegery- 244 Last week- 196 This week- 191 I am still having issues with protien, but I am seeing my DR tomorrow so hopefully I can get some answers. Crystal

Decent week? How about fabulous!!!! Congrats!!! Holly

Good Monday morning, Stephanie and everyone!! Checking in a little late today. Well, this week was better than last, although I dropped 4 pounds lickety-split at the beginning of last week and it hasn't dropped since!! UUHHHGGG! I really hate when this happens. Surgery/High: 251 Last Monday: 204.2 Today: 200.0 So, the good news is that I dropped 4.2 pounds and I am only one pound from "onederland"! The bad news is I have been stuck at one pound from "onederland" since Wednesday morning of last week!! Surely the weightloss gods will let me finally pass over without a fight this week! LOL I hope you all have a great beginning to your week today. Hugs...Suz

Hi Suz, Your doing very good. You will hit the 100's soon. I started taking a picture of the scale at 200 and then when I hit 199, Then 189, 179,Then finally 169 this week. Get as close as you can. I now have them in a scrap book and look back often. I wish I had done that with my highest weight. Ugg. I told my daughters that I am almost at my pre pregnancy weight for my last daughter ... LOL which was 22 years ago. Have a good week and I bet 100's next week . Roxanne
