The scale moved! WOO HOO!
My Dr. prescribed me a water pill since I have been retaining water something fierce. I took it when I got home last night, and this morning I was down 4.4 lbs. I must have been in the bathroom every 2 hours last night cause I had to pee. I was lucky if I went twice all day yesterday. What relief. Plus, the constipation I've had all week has finally passed. I am now down 34.4 lbs in 1 month and 2 days. WOO HOO!!!

No, Sondra, you don't lol...I am a scale ***** and when that scale doesn't move, it's a powerful thing...makes you very upset and almost obsessed with making it move again.
Or maybe that's just me. 
But I know there are other people who have had the same problem. It's a blessing not to own a scale for awhile, I think.
Doesn't mean I am giving mine up!

~Stacy Having a scale is not necessarily a good thing! I know I'm slave to the scale, and I weigh everyday. I get so frustrated. But now that the water retention has stopped, I am very psyched. Today, Sunday, I'm down another 3.5 from yesterday. A total of 38 lbs. Tomorrow is 5 weeks post-op.
WOO HOO!

LAP RNY 8-20-04 (-36lbs.) "Scale *****"...I love it!!! I needed a name for my constant weighing! Actuallly, I just packed mine up to return because it can't make up its mind how much I weigh. It can deviate as much as 3 pounds if I weigh several times at once. My parents have a precision tech scale with the body fat analyzer and at my 2 week checkup it was the exact same as the doctor's scale so I plan to get one of those. Even as I write the compulsion to go unpack it out of my car is driving me nuts!!!!! Hmmm... I wonder if Dr. Phil has a program for scale *****s?
