Plateau Broken!! :o)

Hi OH Friends! After three weeks of doing everything right and not losing an ounce, I woke up this morning having lost 3.5 pound! Whoo hoo! 9 pounds to go before I "qualify" for the surgical 10% pre op wt loss! Now, if I would only get a visit from aunt Flo, who's over 6 weeks late.... ...I already checked...I'm not pregnant! Geesh! Hugs, Amy

congratulations on your weight loss I too had to loose 10 percent pre op! KEEP up the great work AMY lisa

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! And hopefully Aunt flo will show up soon!

Amy: YEAH! It reinforces my belief that THE BODY is in charge LOL! We can do all we can to INFLUENCE our wt but the body releases what it wants at its pace! (never on our schedule unfortunatley!) CONGRATS & know any form of dieting/wt loss sometimes effects the bodies hormones! Take Care, Jamie Ellis Lap RNY 10/9/02 Dr. Singh 320/163 5'9'' (lost 45# before surgery) Plastics 6/9/04 & 11/11/2005 Dr. King "Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect, it just means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections!"

Thanks for all your pats on the back! Jamie, you are right about body chemistry affecting mentrual cycles. I, in my quest for weight loss admittedly want my period to come so the water weight I'm holding will drop! I know, I know, it's not just about the numbers on the scale, but right now, that's a big motivating factor! Anyway, it's so nice to come to this forum and get positive reinforcement from folks *****ally know the particular struggles of this journey. so thanks!!! Amy

Amy, Congrats on the weight loss hun. ~hugs~ It sure feels good when you start to move down.... You will have that 10% off in no time. Yeah all this stress sure can mess your system up Give it time and try to relax, if might just come. Take care ~Hugs~ Debra P
