Topic: RE: Weekly weigh In here!
I'm not sure I'm being quite fair. I weighed at my pcp's office when my daughter's had appointments today. Scale said 267. Saturday or Sunday I was 270 on my scale. I refuse to get on my scale this late in the day to see if they match. I'm still a newbie compared to you ladies, but I'll take any and all advice.

 Hi, Amy,
I only weigh at doctor's offices so my last weight was 265.  I go to Journey next week and will weigh there.  My goal is to be healthy so I'm not sure what my weight should be.  I went to the gym tonight and pumped tin (the weights I used don't qualify for iron).

Also, I saved the marathon section from the paper yesterday that had your interview in it.  Would you like it?  You looked fantastic.  I didn't see you but I was marshaling at mile marker 11 and there was a guy running at 7:00 a.m. in a kilt and no shirt.  I have no idea what else he wasn't wearing.  How on earth do you runners stay warm?

Topic: RE: Pre-op labs & requirements for Weight Wise
I had to have an upper GI at weight wise. All the tests are ordered for your safety. They billed my insurance and they paid. And, my insurance doesn't pay for much of anything. So, go get your tests done and let weight wise do the insurance billing. They know the ropes to get health insurance to pay.
I have maintained for one year at this point.  I am steady at -120 pounds.  =)

I think all of us have had friends and family express concern over losing too much.  They have a hard time adjusting to how we look and at times during our loss our faces can look a bit scary.  I keep changing my goal as I go.  The life insurance chart says 144 but personally I think 150 would be awesome and 160 would be maintainable.  But the closer I get to 160 the more I think of 150.  Basically, I don't know how to answer the goal question.  I think we each figure it out as we get there.

Great job on your weight loss this week!!!  You pulled a big number and you are really getting down there so that is awesome!!
