Ho ho ho - Weekly weigh in 12/24

Merry Christmas everyone!!! I am at my boyfriends parents house for xmas eve and xmas day then it is to my parents house xmas night to celebrate with them. Tonight my BF family does a traditional Polish xmas dinner. You are supposed to try at least a bite of everything so it was easy just to take a spoonful and then say I am good! I really liked the fish at the end. Hopefully tomorrow goes as well. It will be more of the normal xmas dinner food turkey ham ect. Ok so my stats for the week: Start weight: 268 Last week: 148.5 This week: 146.5 Loss this week: 2 Total loss: 121.5 BMI: 24.3 Hope everyone is having a very Merry Christmas!!! Hugs, Kim

Merry Christmas Everyone, I had my brother and sister-in-law, plus a few cousins over last night, will be going to my aunt's this afternoon and then a friends tonight. I ate more than I wanted to yesterday, but at least it was good stuff, I made prime rib on my rotisserie that was great and had a piece of sugar free chocolate pie. I will try to take it easy today. tarting weight 349 2 Weeks Ago = 189 This week = 189 Loss = 0 Total loss = 160 Phyllis

Phyllis, you look so tiny in your new avatar! hugs, Britt

I am soooo not getting on the scales this week! The surgery that I had last Thursday has caused some wicked swelling in my breasts and abdomen. Plus, the antibiotic gave me the black hairy tongue syndome again!! I hope this crap is over for awhile. It's wearing me out! OK, enough whinning from me. Congrats Britt for your perfect maintenance plan and kudos to everyone that stayed within their plan this Christmas season! Wanda

Oh NO ! swell hell *and* hairy tongue!!!! come on 2008! feel better my friend hugs, Britt

Merry Christmas all. We had had a wonderful low key day. Got up this am and the kids opened gifts and stockings then just a lazy day. We will go on the 27th to have Christmas at my parents house. I saw my doctor on Saturday and he removed the rest of the staples and glowed about how I was doing. Two days before surgery I weighed 190 on his scale and Saturday is was 177 and he wants me to stop loosing. I really need to get some pictures up. I am worried that I'm not going to stop right here - mainly I still have swelling I am sure. I also still sport two beautiful drains! YUCK. Anyway ... I'm not sure I am ready to stop loosing ... but I have trusted hime so far and I know he often tells people to stop loosing when he thinks their faces can't stand to loose any more. I could see that. If I could loose another 20 and choose where it comes from...but alas not so lucky. This surgery was amazing guys I need to get my mom or sister to help me take pictures so you can see. I also have a picture of the skin he removed - it is disgusting - want to see? I have a scare from pretty much between my breast (where the originate not where they sag to) down the middle of my body at about two inches below my hips it joins the one that goes all the way around my body except for about 3 inches over my spine. Wow got involved there - sorry. Starting: 358 Saturday: 177 (it feel funny to type a one) Total Loss: 181

Sounds like you had a lovely Holiday!!! YOUR DOC sounded soooooo pleased with you - huh ??? YAY!!!!! How great did that feel ? Congrats on your success! I cannot wait to see pictures!!!! let us know when you post 'em

I hope everyone had a really nice Christmas, our family really did. I learned my lesson the hard way which foods didn't settle to well with me. Some of us are very slow learners. But I did loose and jumped back on the exercise wagon today I was feeling sorry for myself because the pool is closed for 2 weeks so I got up and popped in a DVD and worked out for 45 minutes ths morning. here are my stats ... Starting weight 298.5 Last week = 160.4 This week = 158.4 Loss this week = 2.0 Total loss = 140.1 Current BMI = 28.8 So I reached an all time low so I am pretty proud of myself. My DH got me a day at the Spa for Christmas, it's so unlike him and we don't exchange gifts so it made it even more special to me. He said that I deserved a day of pampering after the year I'd just put in. Everyone have a fabulous week Deb
