Monday Weigh-In (July, 18th)
Hello guys!
I hope you are all doing ok and enjoying the nice weather. I can't wait till I'm allowed to get in a swimming pool! Do we really need to wait 4 weeks? My incisions look closed...
Anyway, as far as weight loss goes, mine is going slowly but surely. I went down 2.6 lbs and I'm very happy. I do feel hungry sometimes and it's hard to go out to the festivals and smell all the yummy food without being able to have any, but I guess that's why I had the surgery done!!
Have a great week everyone!

Hi all,
Back from vacation, had a great time with family.
And I had a small surgery to remove some kidney stones on the right, and having it done at end of August on the left.
So I had to drink tons of extra water for 2 weeks to flush them out. I guess that helped with the weight loss.
I lost another 3 pounds. I'm finally down to 226 now.
Congrats Ana on the loss, and I have no clue if you have to really wait to swimm, maybe you can call info sante? or Martine?
Have a great week !!

Good job ladies!
@ Ana: Believe me, you'll soon realise that life is possible (and more pleasurable) when eating a rather small fraction of what we used to eat...and that it become easier and easier to avoid "festival/street food" once the benefits of major weight loss become hit you!
@ Cindy: Glad you feel better and that those stones are gone!
@ Heidi: Nice overall loss, keep up the good work!
I went to Lakewood and Jackson NJ for 5 days with my wife and kids and we had a blast. The beach at Point Pleasant and the Six Flags park in Jackson (theme park, safari and waterpark) are great spots to visit!
And as a bonus, after 6 days of fast food, questionable snacking and restaurant eating, my weight didn't go up much (0.4lbs)...Thanks to the high level of physical activity!
Have a good week!

Hello everyone,
thats great news to see everyone is doing so well... For me I had a nice relaxing week-end. Finally able to eat a bit more slowly... It is hard when at the cottage and BBQ smells sooooo good... But it doesnt bother as much as I thought it would...
Well I haven't lost anything this week. Derek was telling me that it is normal as my body is adjusting. I am still down 24pounds though which is great and makes a big difference. Next Monday I hope to have gone down a few pounds, that would be great!
Have a good week all, and keep up the great work!
Cheers!

Hello friends,
It's great to see that you are all doing fantastic and that all your spirits are up! Truly an inspiration for someone still waiting like me.
On a different note, I did my sleep apnea test and my pulmonary today so I that's all for the pre-op stuff...so now just waiting for "the call".
Hope you all have a great week and stay cool!!
Hugs,
Ada
