Sunday Weigh In
Shar, I hope you don't mind me starting the thread - I have insomnia today and am starting work early (I telecommute so it's not too bad to do that):
This week found me getting serious about eating and trying to stay focused. I had gotten lax about grazing (why why why is that a constant problem when I KNOW it slows down loss??). I'm happy to say I'm down a pound today!
Highest - 322
DOS - 309
Last SIX weeks - 188
Today 187 - one pound down this week! 135 fugly fat pounds gone, gone, gone!
I hope everyone is doing well and taking care of themselves

Good morning everyone!
I reached my goal a week ago and even lost another pound for fun. I actually don't want to go below 130 so I need to read up on how to maintain my weight. I'm at a good weight for my height and I don't want to look too skinny & gaunt. Grazing I think will always be an ongoing battle for most of us, myself included. For me it's usually because I never have time to sit down an eat... I'm always running around with all my kids and I find myself just grabbing quick things to eat. I do try to grab healthy choices like fruit, cheese, carrots, protein bars, etc... but I find I graze all day long and never really had a decent meal. Not good. Something I need to work on.
DOS - 247
Today - 134
Total Loss - 113 ugly pounds gone forever!
Have a great week everyone!

Wow! It's Sunday again! This week has flew by. I also have found myself grazing! It was especially hard for me this week for some reason! We own a deli/meat market and I am around food ALL DAY! I try to snack on fruit also and deli meat so I have my protein but found myself this week eating chips and cheese dip......I refuse to fall back into that routine. I have come to the realization that "If it is to be, it is up to me" My motto over my desk!
DOS 289
L/W 179
Today 179 No change this week.......Unhealthy choices keep me from reaching my goal! Treadmill, here I come!
Hope everyone has a happy & safe Labor Day week!

Good morning Inky and everyone,
I was late leaving for work and didn't have time to start the weigh in. Thanks for doing it. I finally lost a pound this week, but as of today, it's back. I don't mind the few pounds of fluctuation. I know it's normal. But, when will I ever loe some real weight? Sometimes I think I am not eating enough calories, but I have never counted them on a regular basis. I keep rack on the protein and eyeball the calories and carbs.
DOD 345
LW 195
Today 194 -1
151 pounds gone forever

well this week I really got serious I started with walking 2 1/2 miles a day and this week I am doing 2 1/2 when I take the kids to school and then 2 1/2 when my husband comes home so I am kicking up my cardio an dworking on my arms and abs. Goto love the ipod. It keeps me going. I am at 228 I go from 227 to 229 so maybe just maybe with the kick in cardio I will lose more. I have 3 weeks till I go fo rmy 18 month check up and see if I am ready for my tummy tuck. I was hoping to be at 200 then have it then I would be at about 175-180 afte but I just don't think that is possible. 5right now I think most of my weight is the hanggong skin. I have 5 pounds about on my arms and 20-25 on my belly and at least 10 on my thighs. I talked to a plastic surgeon and for a breat lift with implats it was about 7000 but for a thigh lift it was over 9000 sorry I would rather have my girls back and wear spank for the rest of my life lol.

Good Morning Everyone,
I still am at my stall, which I have been at the same weight now for months, but am grateful that I am not gaining. I still would like to lose about 10 more lbs and I know that if I increase my exercise it will happen.
Highest: 347
Today: 165
182 lbs gone forever. Life is good!!
Well another no change week. 191.4 but hey I am hopeful soon I will be on another losing roll again. But did get into a size 14 jeans I cannot remember the last time i wore a size 14.
Been dealing with allergies and having alot of post nasal drip etc.Plays havoic on lap banders when u have a cold or allergy going on. U can swell the band with coughing and post nasal drip
Update on my daughter she is doing so amazing and can now get her self out of bed . stand and transfer her self from the bed to the wheel chair w/o help and is starting to move her shoulder and elbow some and her smile is comming back, Was reading that not all is a loss when u have a stroke sometimes when u have a brain injury and u develop a new part of your brain u have new talents and she has this amazing penmenship so perfect and beautiful as before well it was not easy to read her handwritting.
Like teaching a child again and we r past 2nd grade math and onto 3rd grade math. She does have a hard time with reading but i think it is her muscles in her eye that is weak as she can read better with one eye closed. I just read to her for now. we spend our days learning again skills and developing new skills. I never felt I was this a great mother becasue she has autism and I would lose my patience so i guess God gave me a chance to do a do over with my daughter. seems she grows a grade each week.
I read this book called My stroke of insight by jill taylor http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/jill_bolte_taylor_s_power ful_stroke_of_insight.html
I must admit some else that is gone from my daughters life is any signs of autism is gone I am telling u that my daughter autism is just gone. She does smile alot and has a goofy laugh.I know the road is alot of unknown but what I do know is I HAVE THIS AMAZING 19 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER WITH OR W/O AUTISM .

tears in my eyes reading about your wonderful child. What if just maybe a stroke cures autism not saying anyone should go through what you are but what if they had a way to produce the same kind of brain rejuvenation to where it helps autism. I don't know just amazes me how much you are doing. You are a fantastic mother and I know about losing patience I do that alot with Nicholas as well. I look forward to your post and how well she is doing.

Hello all!
Well the tonsilectomy went fine. My throat is still sore but more like strep throat and not as bad as it was a week ago. I survived fine and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I thought that all those protein shakes would cause weight loss, but no luck. I actually appeared to gain because the Vicodin I am on caused me to become constipated for a week and a half. Wow, that was no fun!
Today I'm back down to 210. The same weight I have been for nearly 5 months now. At least I'm maintaining right? Or is it better to call this a stall? I don't know.
Highest 335 size 30/32 BMI 49.5
Now 210 size 14/16 BMI 31
life is good!
