Monday Morning Weigh Ins

Good Morning All! Hope you had wonderful weekends. Here are my stats for the week: Highest Weight 327 lbs Day of Surgery 318 lbs Last Week 263.9 This week 263 Not much in the weight loss department but I will take it. I started out wearing a size 26/28 that was way too tight and yesterday I put on a pair of 22 jeans! They had a little stretch material in them that helped me get in them but hey it was a WOW moment for me!! See you all soon!

Congratulations!! Do you have some 22's in your closet that you can start wearing or are you going to treat yourself to a couple new things in your fabuluos new size?! Here is my weigh in: Highest Weight: 281 Day of Surgery: 281 Last week: 195 although I think it was Thursday and not Monday, I don't remember! This week: 194 Yikes! Does anyone know how much the average weight loss is at this stage? If there even is an average. My doctor said it would slow down but I don't think he was specific except for the first 3 months. I don't feel like I've moved sizes very much the past few weeks but a friend was telling me that once you hit 12/14 the sizes move down faster with less weight. I hope that's true! Can't wait to see your progress!!

Hi Adriane: I had one size 22 in my closet that I bought a few years ago. I have a few 20's that were given to me too and I could get into them but they were extra tight so I can't wait until those are comfortable. I have tried on 3 different dresses or shirt sets in a size 20 and they fit perfectly!! I was so amazed! It makes sense that the sizes move faster the as you move to smaller sizes. I have not heard what the avearge loss is for this stage either. My surgeon only gave me an estimate for the first three months. Keep up the good work!!

I did horribly this week. My eating was out of control and I exercised only twice all week. It showed in my weight loss. Pray for me to do better. I'm trying to loose 60 more lbs by my 6 months. Aggressive, but possible... Highest Weight: 377.7 Surgery Weight: 375-377 Last Week: 306.0 This Week: 304.2 Loss: 1.8 Total Loss: 73.5 lbs

Hi Girl! I was just reading your profile and noticed that you quoted Phillipians 4:13 in one of your posts..so there's your answer. You know you can do this and it is not through you own strength, but thru Christ who strengthens you! This will be a better week for you you work out wise and eating wise. Can't wait to hear how well you do this week!!

I am sending prayers your way. It looks like you are doing great though. Lindy

No loss for me, am on a stall

Add me to the "not a great week" club! (I went up a pound from my mid-week weigh in. Rrrrr!) Highest Weight 327 lbs Day of Surgery 299.4 lbs Last Week 237.2 This week 235.4 Loss this week -1.8 -64 since surgery Belle

A little dust seems to help us dodge these stalls . Don't worry...I bet you'll be moving by next week, Gina. Hugs...Suz

I think I am beginning a stall too...oh well, its all part of the wls journey. As long as we know we are making good choices, exercising and getting our supplements in, we don't have to worry about it. The scales will move soon!!
