I broke my stalllllllll - omg I can still lose weight I thought it was all over and the fat lady (me) had sung!

I was so frustrated - beyond frustrated - such a foul mood each week not budging from 147 lbs jus****ching 1 or 2 lbs go on and 1 or 2 come back off -but I must still have some tricks up my sleeve or the scale fairy came for a visit!
 
I got on the scale this morning fulling expecting to give it the finger and say some very not so nice words but it showed 3lbs down - it hasnt moved in forever and I couldnt believe it - got on and off - on and off and it was true- the stall had been broken!

I rewarded myself by going for a walk for over an hour down on the waterfront and along Lake Banook and bought some shorts tonight - size 8! I never wore a size 8 all of highschool the lowest I was would have been a 11/12!!

So maybe Junior High I was an 8 - for a brief moment - but I sure as heck remember that this time last year I was sporting my 24/26/28 pants depending on style and fit - and wearing 5x to "hide" the stomach!

Ok that is all just very excited and have been out all day and had to share!

Ok wait for it ...... this will be the first time I actually type these words - I have said I am glad I had surgery - I have said I am getting the groove of this tool - my surgery has worked but I have not yet ever said ........

I LOVE MY RNY !!!

So being that next week will be one year out for me I am pretty pumped and realize even with complications and a really rough first 4/5 months - I do love my RNY! This was the best choice for me personally.

thanks guys for all your support!

Yippppeeeeee the scale moved !

Only 19lbs left til goal - 19 is my lucky number so I am now motivated to work my butt off (literally) and reach my personal goal of 125lbs !

Awesome!!!! When you close in on goal, the weight comes off so very slowly, As you can see, it will come off when you stick to your guns.

Thanks

I am trying to be patient honest but it gets me so down to be so close but so far- but this has certainly made me think how simply -if I move I will lose and its summer weather - there are no more excuses - I cant slip on ice and make my knee worse!
 
I need to move it to lose it and I am also going to try to eat more - I am sure I have put my body into this whole scenario and long stall- its that stupid ol dieting brain of years gone by- not losing well then just stop eating so much!

So I am gonna get with it again and be more on the ball! There is a way to work this tool and I need to be more vigilant about the "honeymoon phase" still being upon me - Dr Christou always told me the first 18 months so I think I was panicking about it being 1 year up and done !

Geeeeee if they could have only done some work on that brain of mine last June I would be all set!

OMG Deb, only 19 pounds to your goal> YES!!! You can do it. I know stalls suck big time. I stalled for over a month. It is so fustrating. Your scale is moving now and ,most ;ikely the numbers will drop quickly after that ;lon a stall. Keep up the good work girl. You are truly one success story, complications and all. :)
December  2007 / 293 pounds (higest weight)

Final  Goal / 140  (final goal, more of a wish)

That is so cool.  I hate being stalled and when you break through it feels so good.
