SUNDAY WEIGH IN

Pam, It is so tough now, isn;t it? But we just have to chug along, knowing we are doing the right thing and it will come off. We are spoiled from the rapid weight loss in the beginning but I know we will all be successful. Have a good week. Shar

Appendages crossed for you as we speak, Shar!! You can do it! I had a good week - my first mad crush/kissing experience boy found me on classmates.com and we've been e-mailing. He turned out to be a lovely man, with a beautiful family and good job. I just knew he was a nice boy and it's wonderful to find out that came true now 33 years later. Thank goodness for the internet that helps you find old friends and make new ones As for the weight loss, not a bad week at all: Highest 322 DOS 309 Last week 243 This week 237 - down 2.5 pounds (Total Loss 85 pounds) Inky

Thanks for the encouragement, Inky. You had a great week and are making wonderful progress. I am looking forward to my next high school reunion. I didn't go to the last because I didn't want anyone to see me. But this time........I want everyone to look!!! Have a good week Shar

Good Morning A-team, I can't believe we are in our six month already. Mine will be on 16th and I go back for my check up on the 18th. Very excited about that. Had a very busy week at work but still chugging along. I had another good week, lost 5 more lbs. I am only 17lbs away from being in Onderland. Can't wait. Highest:347 DOS:323 Last Week:222 Today:217 That is a total of 106lbs since surgery and 130lbs overall. I couldn't be happier. Life is good.

Cheri, You are just melting away. 5 pounds!! OMG. Keep it up Shar

Good morning Shar & A-Teamers! Shar, you are sooooo close! You can DO IT!!!! Another week of the scale messing with me,,,up one, down two, up two, down one. End results--------down one. DOS-300 Last week- 228 This week-227 Down 1. Pam T

Pam, It is so touch and go now. The daily weight is a roller coaster but I can't keep off the scale. You have done a tremendous job. Shar

Hey, I'm holding steady this week, w/ no loss, but that's just fine by me, considering I had gained two pounds at one point during the week. I was traveling for work and I always dismiss mindful eating when I do that. Luckily, I don't do it often. Here are my stats for the week: Pre-op Diet: 278 DOS: 264.4 Last Week: 204.4 Today: 204.4 60 since surgery; 74 total. Have a great week everyone! shana

Shana, Hold on there! I know this month has been awful for me, but my body has changed a lot. Even the people at work, who see me every day, have remarked how in the past 2 - 3 I have "lost so much." Shar

Every week I do the same thing - I go through the "this is it, I'm gonna stall!" phase. All week I hovered around 210, then yesterday morning and today - bam - there it goes. I have no idea what's with when I lose the "gravitational attraction" but it still continues. It almost seems that when I eat a little more, I lose more, but too afraid to do that on a regular basis. Been under some stress this week - taking a new job out of town soon, usually that'd mean comfort food, but not anymore! Here's the details: RNY Progress so far Heaviest (July '06) = 338# Liquid Diet (4/13) = 320# Surgery 4/25/07 = 305# Last Week = 210# 23 1/2 wks post op = 206.2# = - 3.8# this week 131.8 # overall
