Good morning everyone. I lost 1/2 pound this week........finally! The weather is freezing and I am late for work so no time to write. I hope everyone is well and checks in today.

And how was your week?

Good Morning everyone!

I know...I'm a sometime poster all the time lurker. I have recently been gaining and losing the same 4 lbs.  Today I am at 153lbs.  I have been eating all wrong and I really have to stop and think what I am putting in my mouth. Good news is the Doctor only wants me to lose a maximum of 5 more lbs. I never thought that I would hear a doctor tell my to stop losing weight!!
I wish I would have never tried slider foods.  I still have a lot of trouble with dense proteins so I hit the slider foods for something to eat that doesn't make me sick. I am looking into plastics now but how to pay for them will be the biggest hurdle.

147lbs lost

Have a good week everyone!

Joni,
I think we all have issues with those darn slider foods. The go down way too easily. Stay with us. Your team needs you.

No change for me this week.  Holding steady at 156.

Holding steady is good. Have a great week

Okay... good news is... I've been tracking my eating all week and worked out 3 times. .(after little to no exercise for months and months!)   And I've been faithful with my vitamins and water all week!

Bad news....   I've gained weight over the last 2 months  :(   I'm back up to 227!  I'm just so upset with myself.  I got lazy and discouraged by the stall and just started eating all the things that I swore I wouldn't start eating again.      I did a half-week 5 day pouch test.   I kind of adjusted to me.  I had soup and protein shakes all day long and then a small 1 cup dinner (whatever I was making the family) in the evening.    I did find that it adjusted my way of thinking and my pouch felt smaller at dinner time.  I could barely eat the 1 cup of dinner.   I think my biggest pitfall has been grazing and mindless eating and even, drinking during meals occasionally..   Also, eating late at night while watching TV.    I'm so upset with myself.

I'm not using this as a excuse, but I've been under a lot of stress and things have been so hectic. I stopped putting my health at the top of the list and I think that's when I started to fail.  I've become embarrassed to tell people I've had RNY because I'm still so fat. 

I was glad to read of the challenge and I'm doing it to the best of my ability.   I wanted to be honest here and was hoping to find support.

I'm keeping my calories at around 1100 this week and I hope to see weight loss soon.  My protein is up to 80 grams a day as well.  


Thanks for listening.

Highest weight 335
Current 227

We are here for you as all of us will be dealing  with weight gain issues if not now later. Just how we rise to ocassion is the difference we will see. Before we just did not check in with weight gain, But now u r and back at it we all will fall off the wagon so to speck but it is the tool we have that will keep us on track. Study shows those who keep up support  are sucessful I just worry about those that have left us and moved on. I hope they did find some support with their weight loss and not  the fact  that gained some weight back  . I am glad u came to us .. we are your A team We are here threw thick and thin. Keep up the good work  on turning it around
