Topic: weekend weather
So, what did you all do this weekend? Anyone get outside and enjoy the great weather? I woke up saturday with a very bad sore throat, so I kinda dinked around all day. I went and did some shopping, went out to lunch with hubby, and I didn't order anything I just ate a bit of his. I went to gym was gonna walk outside but by the time that happened the sun was gone and I don't wanna be super sick for xmas.
So chime in on what you did?

I did not weigh myself but did go to the gym a couple times this week. We will see how this week goes.
Topic: Fess up Monday! Report your weigh-in here
Well, I did better this week, but only by virtue of exercising. My eating is still borderline--not out-of-control, but too many treats are around. Holiday taco bars, cookies and caramels at work, cookie bake at my sister's house, etc. I tend not to count my calories at all on weekends, which is unwise.
I did get my butt moving again, and I think that is my saving grace. I logged about 15 miles of running for the week--not stellar, but not couch-potato either. As a "treat" for getting up and getting down to the workout room this morning, I am allowing myself to report my second weigh-in. (I weigh right when I get up, and then again after I work out, have my coffee and eat breakfast. Despite eating and drinking, my after workout number is always a bit lower.)
Starting weight: 298.4 lbs
Last week: 141.1 lbs
This week: 140.7
Loss of 0.4 lbs
I should note that both weigh-in numbers would have been a loss, but neither is much. Oh well, it's not a gain either, so I should be grateful for that, right? Almost down below my freak-out number again.
So c'mon everybody--report in. I don't care if you don't report your actual weight. Just use this thread to be accountable to your OH peeps for your week, and make plans for the upcoming one. You know we won't judge--we've all been there and are still battling!!

Topic: RE: C mon people no more snoozing
Sounds like lots of good work going on before the holidays! Yay, everyone for staying strong and on track. Send some of that my way.
While my eating has been marginal, I have been back to exercising regularly, so that seems to be keeping it under control. Just need to keep that up over the holidays.

“Victory is won not in miles but in inches. Win a little now, hold your ground, and later, win a little more.? Louis L'Amour quote
Hello, I'm scheduled for my RNY on the 30th of this month. With just two weeks to go I have to admit im pretty excited. Is there anyone else on this board that had Dr. Smith as well and are willing to share their experience? Thanks.

Topic: RE: Dr. Michael Schwartz patients
I had my RNY by Dr Schwartz 3 years ago. I would recommend him and the clinic for sure.
