Monday Morning Weigh In
I am so excited, I dipped into the 140's!
Highest Weight 232 lbs
Day of Surgery 228 lbs
Last Week 153
This week 149.6
I lost 3.4 lbs for the week
Total loss - 82.4
I did start having the liquid smoothie's for breakfast a few days, so perhaps that helped. I also realize that I had been clogged up, so I took some Milk of Magnesia to assist with this problem.
I am starting Stephanie's liquid diet today. We are doing it together for 4 days. I am hoping to get at least another 5 lbs off this week. Then I want to do it again in September. I just hope to be @ 140 before heading off on a business trip in September to NJ, because that will put my BMI in the NORMAL range! Even though my personal goal is 132.
I am so excited to only be 17.6 lbs from goal!
Also, I tried on a size 7 dress that I wore back in 1998/1999 time period and it looked really cute on me! I still need something to tighten up my bulging belly, then I will feel comfortable wearing it. I am going to try to increase the crunches to 200 a workout.
Well, I hope everyone has a good week!

BTW - Stephanie - Did you have coffee at all with your diet? I was just wandering/thinking how I am going to make it through the mornings without my wakeup drink!
Hey Lindy!! I have to confess I did not start the liquids this morning. was running late and couldnt find part of my portable blender, I thougth it was at my desk still and I was going to mix things up at work, but I did not find it here either. So I had to eat solids(yes I was forced to eat them) lol But I will be on with you tomorrow the rest of the week.
I really think the increased protein from the yogurt smoothie with protein powder mixed in helps us kick our loss up a notch!! Way to go on your 3.4 pound loss!
I don't drink coffe but I don't see anything wrong with having while you are doing your liquids. I read where a lot of ppl also mix protein in their coffee for extra.
i know you will be to your 140 goal by the time you take your trip in September! Let us know when you get there!
And you do 200 situps??? : WOWSERS!! I am so ab lazy!! I just started to focus on those this weekend and I am in pain pain pain..it hurts to laugh...lol
And one last congratulations on being less than 20 lbs from your goal!! Any plans to do anything special to celebrate reaching your goal??
