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.

Hope everyone has a happy & safe Labor Day week!
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.

Have a great week everyone!
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

I hope everyone is doing well and taking care of themselves
You are NOT a disappointment. You are a success. yes, I knew Gerri was back. And I was surprised and pleased. I know you wanted her job, but maybe they can find something else for you. I have decided to wait a while for my tummy tuck. I want to try to lose some more and I think it's a good idea to stabilize a while longer. Finances are also a huge consideration. Maybe February would be a good time for me, if my hernia holds up. Check in tomorrow.

Okay flame me if you want, but you have been sooooo good and you deserve something sweet. Go have a Mocha Frappuccino from Starbucks. Or some orange calorie sugar free tic-tacs. Or something really guilt inducing like cold stone. Sweet Jesus - its been almost 1.5 years since you've had your surgery - treat yourself to SOMETHING!!! You deserve it!!! I can't do ice cream, I really can't. I've tried many, many times and it always makes me so sick. But that doesn't mean you can't have some Hot Tamales or an icee or somethingggggggg?!!!?!!
Everyone is different - that is my wls mantra. My mom and my sisters have also had the surgery, all of us starting out with similar weights and similar builds and similar everything - and you know what? we are ALL different!! We all have different weight losses and different favorite foods and dumping foods and etc, etc. What works for me does not work for them. Do what works for you - stay out of the ice cream aisle as long as you need to or make yourself sick on a box of milk duds in the mean time. You are far enough out that you aren't AREN'T I repeat AREN'T going to screw up. You are ALREADY successful.
Sorry I don't post more. I really should. I drink wine and eat sugar and don't drink water. Oh and the working out sucks, I don't do that either. But I have been so successful, more so than I ever imagined. This surgery will work for you if you believe in yourself.
Go get some chocolate chip cookie dough :) You deserve it!!!!
I didn't do the weigh in on sunday because I was at my sisters and forgot. I called Dr F office to see about changing my appointment and guess who answered the phone? gerri did she is back working at the office. I was shocked I didn't care for the lady that took her place didn't find her very personable. I of course wanted her job so that was a bit of a bummer. any ways I changed my appointment to sept 11 at 2:00 I think or 1:30 so I am freaking out . I only have 3 weeks to lose more weight to get ready for the tummy tuck and I am still 227-229 depending on the day. I hope I am not a dissapointment or he says I have to wait longer because I am not where I should be.
