Checking in....
Hi everybody! It's been a while, but since I've been back to work, I don't have much time. I'm finally feeling "normal" and getting a bit of energy back! Hooray!
The BEST part is....I've gone from a snug size 24 to a fits-like-a-glove size 18!!! Woohoo! The scale still is NOT my friend, even though we visit every morning, LOL! I guess the lesson is....pay attention to your size and not your weight...the scale is not an accurate reflection of your progress!

Hi Lisa,

Lisa - I am so glad to see you posting... how are you doing at work with your food, etc?
And you are so right about the change in sizes as opposed to the scale - I am in the same spot with the scale not changing much in the past few weeks. It really does feel good to see the clothes getting too big and baggy ! Congratulations !

Hi Shelia! It's actually easier to eat at work than I'd thought. We have a frig and microwave in my office, so I keep the frig and pantry stocked with protein shakes, bars, peanut butter, Jr. Lunchables, and sometimes soups. If I eat out, I usually get a small chef salad or a hamburger steak...something like that. If I'm at home, it seems the temptation to snack is greater....guess being busy is a good thing, lol!
You are doing great with your weight loss! Don't pay attention to that dumb old scale...the clothes don't lie! Hang in there!

Thanks, Suzanne! I didn't mean to down myself...I'd just been stalled for a while, and this weekend, I lost THREE whole pounds! Wheeee!!! So I'm back on a WLS high again! Tee Hee!
You look wonderful, and continue to inspire me...I wanna be you when I grow up(or should I say "grow down"?) LOL! Thanks, sweetie!
