Ditto, but it took me forever to get it formatted properly. The button that says you can change to the new format did not work at all. I did have to reenter all my backgrounds from scratch though. Lori

I agree - up the calories and cut back on carbs. For the past month or two, I've been eating 800-1100 calories pretty much every day and I'm still losing. I will go up and down on 4 pounds, and then drop them and start on the next 4. Definitely slowing down. Great job on the exercising!

Congrats!! I have a hard time keeping carbs so low. And I will only have maybe one food item that I would consider high-carb. I can only imagine how many carbs I was getting pre-surgery. Probably about 3000 grams a day! Happy the scale is finally moving for you.

The last few weeks I have been feeling discouraged because my scale has been going up and down each week. My total loss for Nov was 1lb!!!! I was starting to get nervous because I will be at 6 months out in a few weeks and thought this would be an indication of how my weight loss will be after the honeymoon period. At the last support group I attended at Presby Hosp the NUT mentioned that we should be getting a max of 60g carbs a day. The NUT I see had never mentioned about keeping an eye on carbs so I hadnt kept track. Well, after that meeting I looked at what I was eating and I was WAY over 60g carbs a day. Starting last week I drastically cut back my carbs to around 25-30g a day aaaaaaaaaaaand the scale moved 5lbs this week. This is my best week EVER!!!!!!!!! Previoulsy I had a week where I lost 4lbs and that was my heighest... that was back in my first moth post op! Since then Ive done 1-3lbs a week. YaaaaaaaaaaaaY! Had to share because I was excited for myself In addition to watching the carbs I "went back to basics" and added more lean protein and fruits/veggies. Also commited myself to going to the gym faithfully and quit making excuses for myself. Its so great to see hard work pay off.

You're too funny Lori. Though I keep feeling them myself. And my husband keeps feeling my hipbones and saying "What's that?" I was doing a monthly breast exam the other day and got nervous until I realized I was feeling a rib. Going from a overflowing 44DD to a 36BarelyB makes thing feel a little different!!!
