Good Monday morning--Weigh-in time!

Okay, I'm not trying to lose anymore, and I actually thought I was bad this weekend.  But apparently my exercise is making up for it, so I had a pretty big loss this week.  I'm sure I'll bounce back, but that's okay.

Starting weight:  298.4
Last week:  144.1
This week: 138.4
This week:  Loss of 5.7 lbs!

I have now lost a total of 160 lbs since surgery, and I'm very happy.  This is still the best decision I have ever made for myself and my health. 

I'm running another 5K race this Saturday, then moving up to 10K in September and October.  I never thought I'd be able to do that.  Next year, I'm going to do a Triathlon!

WOW!!  How do you lose 5,7 lbs on accident? 

 Wowwweee Renae!!

You've done amazing!!  

I didn't do as bad this week food wise but saw no change on the scale.  I take that as a good thing as I didn't gain.  :)

Highest weight 250
Starting weight 235
Last week: 166.2
This week: 166.2

 I have to get back on the exercise trail. I think it is one of the keys to long term success. A hobby, yep that is what I need. Congrats on your continued success!!  I am now 18 months out. My OH my how time flies. I have regained a bit overall and will be chatting with my surgeon tomorrow. I am sure to have a renewed commitment.

I agree, I truly think exercise is the key.  Believe me, I am NOT a fan of exercise; I was never an athlete as a kid, I was always the last one picked for the team, yada yada.  I'm sure many of you know that feeling. 

I can't say that I love getting out and exercising now, although the running is starting to grow on me.  But more important is the way I feel when I am done exercising--stronger, leaner, healthier.  I think that's what I'm getting addicted to. 

If exercise is my cross-addiction, that can't be all bad.

I stayed about the same (-.2) this week.  Still a loss, maybe?  :)  I had a really salty dinner Sunday night and a few more bites and tastes than usual which I think both slowed me down.  Next week- hoping for -65.

I have a garage sale this weekend, then will catch up with you all more regularly at coffee after that.

 Still trying to get into better journaling so I know where I stand but down again, it will be 4 months tomorrow and am at 218 now,  whoopee.   Really glad to have found the saturday morning coffee group.
