Monday Morning Weigh In

Happy Labor Day everyone! I had a great day--hubby and I put the top down on the convertible and drove over to the Mississippi Gulf coast. I haven't seen it since the hurricane and it looks pretty good. Kind of deserted though. We just drove up and down to Biloxi and back, stopped for lunch, and went by the two houses we lived in during the early 80s (both still standing). Only lost 1/2 lb this week--I guess I'm on an official, bonafide STALL!!! HW: 265 lbs. SW: 252 lbs. LW: 178 lbs. CW: 177-1/2 lbs. 27-1/2 lbs. to my goal of 150--at this rate I'll never make it! Jen

Wow, it looks like several of us are hitting stalls all at the same time. I've been officially stalled out for two weeks now, entering my 3rd week. I'm trying to increase everything...fluids, exercise, protein, and calories...but saying it and doing it are two different things. The fluids and protein are no problem most days and the exercise is really not a problem, all I have to do is make myself do it. But the calories are a problem. I still can't top out at more than about 850 a day and I know that is just not enough...my body is hanging on to every ounce right now because it thinks it is starving! I think it is mental, I start freaking out if I actually hit 900 calories even though my NUT wants me at a minimum of 1000 calories a day. Anyway, here's my stats: HW/Day of surgery: 246 Last weeks weight: 174 This weeks weight: 174 Total loss: 72lbs. Take care everyone! And congrats to those who are losing! Denise

Well, Im back to losing, still haven't caught up entirely. I lost 6 pounds after my first fill, then 4 the following week. The week after I gained back the 4 pounds, and this week am down 1.5 pounds. So overall I have had a net loss of 7.5 pounds in a month. Not good but I will take it. I actually can't wait for my period to start because for some reason that is a good week for me. HW-290 SW-284 LW-225 TW-223.5 Loss 1.5 pounds.

Good Morning to all, I have finally beat my 2-3 week stahl. Bouncing between 164 & 162. This morning I weighed in at 160. Yeah. Here are my stats! HW: 280's SW: 267.9 LW: 164-162 CW: 160 That is a total of 107.9 POUNDS LOST. OMG! OMG!

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a nice holiday weekend. Back to school today, yippee! Its so quiet around here, even with 2 still at home! Here are my stats for this week HW 299 SW 288 LW 227.5 CW 225.5 -2 lbs

Great week Steph!!! You're doing awesome!!!! Holly

Thanks Holly!!

HW 232 SW 228 LW 146.6 CW 147.4 Not sure if it is the growing fibroid tumor, having a bad ear infection and being on medicine, stress or not eating enough or drinking water. I usually have water bottles in the fridge and grab one every day before I go to work. Last week I was out and I didn't force myself to go ge****er when I first got to work. I didn't want to work out any last week because I felt so lethargic. Okay, I guess I could analyze it to death and still not know the real reasons for the weight gain. I just hope I get back on track this week. A little fairy dust to keep us going. I sure know i need it. Hugs, Lindy

Okay, my weight is back down and is below last week as of this morning it is at 146.2. I sure hope to get a few more lbs off, since I desperately wanted to be 140 when I went to NJ next week. I know 6.2 is just to unrealistic, but I would take 2.2lbs happily.

Tough week for me - seems like I'm eating everything and anything- all the foods I said I would never eat again...my exercise was terrible too... UGH!!!! Here's to a better week!!! HW- 250 SW- 241 LW- 144 TW- 144 Still at 96 pounds since surgery, BMI- 23.2 Holly
