Monday Morning Weigh Ins

Good Morning Everyone, I was on vacation last week and didn't get my protein in like I should. First time in a restaurant since before surgery. I have been up 1 and down 1 for the past few days. I did have 2 wow moments. I sat my 1 year old granddaughter in my lap and noticed how close she was to me. I now have MORE lap. Also while on vacation my hubby who is thin wanted to go to McDonalds for a quick lunch. I had eaten cheese and a pudding in the car before going in as I don't ever want to get into the habit of eating that way again. Anyway he sat at a table with those little twirling chairs and I GULPED because I always had to sit sideways in those. Well I sat down and could even twirl it around with plenty of belly room. (I carried most of my weight in my belly). YUK. So that was a couple more WOW moments since surgery. Now to get back in a routine and lose more. I just want to say everyone is doing so good on here. I am glad we have a Monday Weigh in and chats. Thanks, Roxanne Highest Weight: 232 Day of Surgery: 211 2 weeks ago: 169 This week: 166

Conngrats on your wow moments!! And I am glad we have this forum too!! It is nice to be able to ask questions of others who had te surgery around the same time to I did. I really appreciate all of you here!

Not the best week for loss, but I'll take it. Highest Weight 242 Last Week 197 This week 196 Added some weight training and some aerobic excersize and strength training to my normal schedule. I lost 1/2 inch in my stomach and 1/2 inch in my waist this last week, so that's great, but not much weight. I am building muscle though so I can't complain. I certainly don't want to be bones in lose skin after I meet goal, so it's time to start doing serious toning. Bye Bye bat wings Lori

Hi L ori!! I almost did not recognize you!! Nice pic! And oh the bat wings are too funny! I have been trying to tone since before surgery but I still have the jiggleys...lol

HAHA... WE have new avatars! I like yours too. I'm not only creating a scale addictions anonymous group, but I'm also going to be the founding mother of "No More Jiggleys International" that'll be a new foundation for people with WLS to work off the bat wings and other jiggley skin and fat from places it doesn't belong. It just ain't right! My husband and children often slap my rear end to see how long it jiggles on it's own as a form of family entertainment. There is coming a day where it'll be so firm it won't have that jiggle anymore. At least that's what I'm working toward.

Well sign me up!! I will be at all the meetings!! lol I crack my self up sometimes with the things that jiggle!! Especially the bat wings.

Good morning everyone, hope you all had a woderful weekend. Highest Weight 360 Day of surgery 342 Last week 262 This week 258 I must say, not too bad considering that i went to a cinco de mayo party on saturday and i drank a whole corona (beer) and did not dump so i knew that i did not loose any weight, boy was i suprised this morning when i saw the scale.That makes 84lbs since surgery and 102lbs with the 18lbs before sugery wow! Almost to my second goal just 16lbs to go. Everyone have a wonderful week.

Good Monday Morning all!! This is going to have to be short and sweet...I have TONS of homework to finish today. Ugghh...finals . Anyway, made it to "onederland" early last week as most of you know...so here's how I've done since then: Surgery/high: 251 Last Monday: 200.6 This Monday: 195.9 So, down a total of 4.7 this past week. I can't complain at all!! And, I have to agree with some of the other comments...that is some mighty powerful fairy dust that is getting passed around!! Here's a bit more for anyone who didn't get theirs!! Have a great Monday everyone... Hugs...Suz

Mayyuunnn, I need some of that there dust. I only lost 1 lb this week. Give me some of that..... You are doing awesome!

Hi everyone!!! I'm posting my BMI as well now- because my losses are really starting to slow. I'm really struggling with food choices. I don't know whether to see a dietician or a therapist... I'm thinking that since I know that they are bad choices I probly need a therapist. I did still manage to lose a pound though- which is fantastic considering... Highest 250 Surgery 241 last week 168 this week 167 BMI 27 Total loss since surgery 74 pounds Have a great week!!! Holly
