Topic: RE: Fallen off the wagon
Thanks guys, I'm glad I'm not alone!  I've walked 7 miles this week but kinda bummed with the weather conditions the next few days.  I wish I had a treadmill, I even BEGGED my parents to borrow theirs because they never use it!  I will have to use my WII the next couple of days and fight off the kiddos!!

Topic: Wow moment -- entering Twoterville
When I weighed myself last Wednesday before my nurse and nut appointments, I eeked into Twoterville with a 299.6 . . . on Sunday that was a more secure Twoterville at 295.8 . . . I'd love to see Onederland at some point, but for now Twoterville sure beats being 440!

I only saw Dr. Wolfe for about two seconds before surgery and then once or twice after that -- before I was fully coherent! I think that is just how their days work.

I hope you have a very smooth recovery.

I wish I didn't fixate on numbers at all -- that seems so much healthier!

Topic: RE: For those who MUST compare....
I started at 440 and my weight should be around 140 for my height/build I am told (but I am only 5'3") . . . I was told my expected weight loss would take me to 185, which I would be happy with, but I did lower my goal because I want bounce back room. What happens from here remains to be seen.

If you look at 300 as my excess body weight, then I am a little shy of half of that at about 48%. I'm just past the halfway mark to my goal of 160.

No matter what, I am much better off even if it stops here. I hope it isn't done yet, but I am definitely more able to do things at 295 than I was at 440!

Ouch, sorry to hear that.  Hope it's nothing serious.

OH Kelly that is awful....I hope they figure out what is wrong.  Doesn't sound like an ulcer or gull bladder being below the belly button.  I've had both and the pain is more around the V in your rib cage.  Do they think it may be related to your recent hysterectomy?  I hope you find out soon.  It sounds like the Dr.s are taking things seriously.  Good Luck.  Are you coming Saturday???? I can't wait to see you!
