This has been my story the last 3 months or so!~
I keep trying to tell myself.. it's just a scale.. NOT my life. We are not a number on the scale. Try to make other goals for yourself to keep you on track. Like.. my goal for today is to get all my water in.. or to walk 4 miles.. or whatever.
The scale is going to fluctuate.. and except for the first couple of months after surgery.. is no good at telling us how we are REALLY doing.
My surgeon refuses to give me a goal weight. Why? Because he says he would rather have me have a goal lifestyle. My health is so much more important then what I weigh. Sure there is some connection.. but think of people that are too thin after this surgery and suffer all sorts of effects for not taking care of their bodies.
Not caring about myself or my body is what got me to 335 lbs. And I can easily continue not to care or respect my body by just wanting to get to a certain weight.. no matter what..
But I had this surgery, to help me learn, how to eat right and how to treat my body with the respect it deserves. The weight loss is wonderful, but can't be my central goal... or my eating and choices will change according to what the scale says.
You will get there!!! Just continue to keep being nice to your body, making healthy choices, be thankful for where you have come.
You look beautiful!! I mean that.

STOP WEIGHING EVERYDAY......LOL....I know easy to say but you know what I mean....Once a week..... We gain from that curse because we need the water to clean our bodies. With out it we would be like the GUYS>>>>>>ewwwww....lol....JOKE.......hang in there baby and you have my #...call me any evening you need to talk.... but it has to be after 7pm my time........Call me and I can help you remember this is what I do now..... and you know what.......
SMILE.....I LOVE YOU.....
I bet after you cycle is over and you step back on that scale you will be rewarded for your hard work and diligence! Hang in there hun and like Crystal said... stop weighing yourself everyday. Once a week and you won't get so discouraged. And always weigh yourself after your monthly...not right before.
Last time I stopped weight my self for a week I gained 10 lbs LOL weighting all the time keeps me honest .. keeps me accountiable for some odd reason.. but I was so mad but now I am thinking better be a good reward when aunt flow leaves town.. I hate having periods LOL JUST DRIVES ME INSANE.. it's a cycle of my weight gain.. THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT

Yeah, I did cry and say i was a failure and totally forgot the 121 pounds I lost and that I have size 12 jeans and wear medium tops and wah wah wah...until my hubby figuratively *****slapped me and told me to snap out of it and reminded me of where i was a year ago and how i am not a failure and the scale WILL move again and to stop having myself a pity party cuz that wasn't helping me at all and i knew this would take a long time.
He's eloquent, that husband o' mine, lol, but he was right and I started the next morning over and really it was 203 but now it's 202 and I'll be seeing 199 again soon. Good thing I took a picture of it so I know I did it once, I can do it again, lol
So no crying and no drinking - they won't be helping. Let's just pull up those boots (and I know you have some - I know where you live, lol) and get back on our horses!!
hugs,
