MONDAY MORNING WEIGH-IN

Well it is official...I am back as the president of the one pound club or the "OPC" last week 177 this week 176 I have really sllllloooowwweeedd down. I feel like I am crawling at a snails pace. I have been eating well and I am exercising. I do have trouble getting my fluids in. I was never a "big drinker". I keep saying today is the day I will drink enough and I never seem to be able to do it. UGH I saw that Felicia is struggling with slower weight loss...anyone else out there dealing with this too. Misery loves company and I don't want to be in this pity party all alone. LOL I have 26 pounds to reach my goal of 150. I is starting to feel impossible. It is so close I can really dream about it. I will send losing vibes your "weigh" please send them my "weigh" Tara

Consider "losing vibes" sent!! I do GREAT one week a month, then suffer through the rest *sigh*. Look forward to getting my hiney in the pool and hopefully that will get it moving more then one week a month lol. Hang in there!! We will make it!! *huggles* Felicia =0)

You aren't the only one that is stalling. I have been playing with the same 2 lbs for a month up and down. I guess we are at that point? Also, i find that I am able to eat a lot more. It is taking more self control to stop than it did earlier in the surgery. Rachel

I'm always late at posting on Mondays because I work night shift. Here are my numbers for the week!!! Pre-op Appt Weight: 282 Weight on Surgery Date 10/11/06: 274 Weight Last Week: 178 (gained two pounds) Weight this Week: 173.5 Total Weight Change Since Pre-op appt.: 108.5 lbs Total Change in last week: -4.5 Total Change in last month: -6.5 lbs. Total to lose to reach my goal: 14.5 lbs. Percentage of Body Weight Lost: 38.5% Total inches lost: 51.75 inches (-10.5 last month...I take my measurements on the 11th) Current BMI: 27.2 This was a much, MUCH better week. Did a lot better with carbs and crap this past week. It helped that the kids got sick this past weekend and I ended up having to skip the picnics and grad party that we were supposed to go to.

WOW YIPPIE FOR YOU! You got the scale moving again in the right direction too! LOL You are doing JUST AMAZING!! Keep up the awesome work!! *huggles* Felicia =0)

register one big old goose egg for me...still holding at 167. Can't seem to get that last pound off to make the 100 mark. Tomorrow is another day. Annette

Keep at it you will make it before you know it!! I am so excited for you. You are so close!!! You are doing awesome!! *huggles* Felicia =0)
