Topic: RE: weight loss slowing down
I think this is pretty normal! Surgeon even told me there would be times when I stopped losing weight, but my body would be shrinking. Our bodies have to catch up to the rapid loss. Sounds like you're doing what you're suppose to be doing. I know that the scale tends to start moving when I've figured out I'm not getting in enough calories and I increase them.
Take care of you and KNOW you aren't done losing....body is just catching up.

Isn't it nice to know that chivalry is still alive in some men. I'm soooo glad that you weren't hurt worse although I'm sure you're not feeling too well. That is a GREAT wow moment. NO one would have ever been able to lift me before either!
Take care of you and feel better darlin!

Topic: Sorry....been AWOL lately...
I know I didn't even post about this, but they are re-structuring where I work and 38 people are going to lose their jobs. We are thinking the announcement of who will be tomorrow, they said by the end of the month. Here's my problem.....
This job situation has really got me in a funk. I can't believe that I'm being this way. I'm just SOOOOOOOOOO worried about what I might find out tomorrow that I've been in a funk since Thanksgiving. All I've been doing is sitting watching tv and munching. Meals???? Really, is that what I'm suppose to be eating? Tonight, I had some microwave popcorn for supper. What the **** is that? I brought work home to do over the weekend and I haven't even opened up my computer bag to look at it! Unbelievable.....I've literally sat on my butt and done nothing. I did get outside yesterday for a couple of hours and rake leaves. I was suppose to get out and finish today, but do you think I did? Nope....I sure didn't.
I come to the computer to come on the boards and read a couple of posts and log off....I am having a really hard time I can't even respond. I want to and then think, "Nah" I'll just log off. Go back to my room and sit and watch more tv. I've been in a zombie state. I don't get like this. I've been through a LOT in my life and adversity and bad news are no strangers to me....yet this, even though I don't know that I'm going to be one of the 38 people that lose their jobs has me totally screwed up!
I really need to get a grip! This being down about something that hasn't even happened isn't reality. I'm praying, I know He hears me, I know it's in His hands, I know that the wonderful bumper stickers he placed in front of me were there for a reason. Now, I just have to take heed to what they said and "RELAX".
My sister and BIL stopped by yesterday and I just wanted them to leave. I just wanted to be alone. That's horrible! My son got home tonight and I was like, "Oh great, someone here." BLAH!
GRRRRR SHAKE IT OFF GIRL!
I want to apologize for not replying to posts. You've all been soooo supportive of my journey and I want to be just as supportive of everyone elses, I just need to become myself again, not this zombie person that has taken over.
Sorry for how long this got and me whining....I just feel soooo blah.
I pray that I will be able to come back here tomorrow or the next few days and say I was all worried about nothing.

Topic: An Embarrassing WOW happening!!
This morning I stepped out of my friends car at a restaurant.. took a few steps and stubbed my toe on the curb and fell flat on my face. Naturally there was 4 men standing and talking and my friend and her daughter.
Knocked the breath out of me. One of the men ran right over and was asking me if I was OK. Naturally I couldn't answer him. I rolled around and finally got enuff breath to tell him I could not breathe. He was such a nice careing gentleman.
So finally I sat up and he offered to help me up. Well I told him that I have 2 artificial knees and have to go over and pull myself on something. He wanted to make sure if I was hurt. Mainly was so EMBARRASSED.
The WOW is this man reached down and stood me right up on my feet. I couldn't believe that. He wouldn't have been able to do that 70lbs. ago! Then when I fell on my face.. It took a WHOLE grocery cart of pumpkins to get me up off the ground.
Admittedly I almost knocked him off his feet and I certainly hope he didn't rupture himself. BUT HE GOT ME UP!!
I certainly was grateful to him for being so careing and helpful.
Got a purple nose, a bruised check bone, and a scraped up eye brow. But mainly a bruised EGO. Alice
Topic: weight loss slowing down
Last few weeks the loss has been 0 to 2 lbs. Last week it was only .5. Anybody else find it slowing down? I am hoping this isn't the end of the losing.
Anybody have any advice on what I can do? I use the treadmill 5x a week, eat protein, drink fluids.... I don't know how else to get the scale moving. Any help would be appreicated.
