Sunday Weigh-in

Sorry I missed the post yesterday but here goes..... Start weight 334 last week 254 sunday 248 total loss 86 woop woop Good job all! Jamie

I feel your pain. My weight loss has definitely slowed. I am down 71 lbs. I finally had a good drop of 4 lbs this week after I upped my protein and fluids. Don't know if that is what did it or not. Unlike you, I do have an appetite for food now. Not the craving that I had before, but still an appetite. And like you, I do not like most of the drinks available. Crystal Light tastes bitter to me. And I've never liked plain water. Lately, I've been drinking decaf coffee or iced coffee with splenda, Carb-Countdown milk and Davinci sugar-free syrup. One thought crossed my mind this morning and it gives me hope. I've lost 71 lbs now and with the surgery I have a very good chance of keeping it off. In the past when I lost weight, I gained it all back plus some. I feel so much better now than I did 71 lbs ago and I can do so much more physically. I know we'll start to see the numbers fall again in a more consistent manner. But, I also know it is frustrating when it's not happening!

My loss is very slow right now, too. I have increased my protein and my water intake for the past two weeks, with little results. I sure hope things improve soon. Karen G 294 / 220 / ??? -74 pounds

Cheer up James, darling.. We all are doing so well, and are blessed to have come this far! Well, on Sunday, I was -71 pounds, and as of today, my 5 month anniversary, I am -75, now 268! I haven't been 260 anything since high school. This alone is something to thank God about, and reading everyone elses accomplishments, only makes me want to do more! God bless us alll, everyone! Vera
