9 Month Anniversary Today
Today is my 9 month anniversary and I have lost 9 pounds this month..which brings the grand total lost to 137 lbs I have lost a total of 84 1/2 inches from all over my body It's really weird though...when I get my protein in and really watch what I eat...the scale doesn't move But, when I eat basically what I want (healthy of-course) and feel like I am eating to much...I lose weight I really think the previous poster was right on here...we need to up our calorie intake. On a normal day...I get in about 1000-1100 calories and I don't lose...but if I get in over 1300 I lose. I still don't have any idea what my goal weight is...on here it says 160 but my Dr said 140. And, at 155 I look sick and my bones stick out real bad (and that was before having kids). If any of you guys are 5' 10".....what is your goal weight? Thanks for any replies
Until next month.....
323/186/?
Schtina,
I'm not 5'10" -- not even close! -- but I'm also at 9 months out from wls. I just wanted you to know that I'm happy for you and am impressed with your fantastic weight (and inches) loss!
Like you, I find that I have to eat more to lose more, especially if I exercise quite a bit. That runs so contrary to what we've learned through other dieting experiences, doesn't it?
Anyway, happy 9 month anniversary!
First of all, I would like to thank everyone *****sponded and Congratulations to all of you..your weight loss is great And to
Biking One and Renee... you guys look great
Biking One...Yes, it is completly different how are bodies our programmed now compared to pre-WLS. Also, I checked out your profile and you are doing great. I wish I had your enthusiasm to go to the gym
Renee...(I love your name..that is my daughter's middle name ...Thank you so much for telling me that you thought my Dr.'s goal weight was too low also. I have been so worried about it lately. I really think I will just stick with the goal weight the this board has me at...160. Which means I am 25 pounds from goal
