Wednesday WLS Express!!

I'm really proud of myself the past 2 days, it's amazing when I log my intake and seriously get fearful of the regain I can turn that switch and make good choices, and amazingly so when you don't eat the juke  you aren't hungry, duh


It is just a matter of holding yourself accountable.  I do mine by weighing every day, twice a day.  Each one of us has a different way of holding ourself accountable.  We have to find what works for us.  Good job.

George I weight pretty often also, but I think I've been in denial with those lbs. I've gained.  I definitely agree with accountablity.  One of the reasons my siggy shows the regain; I won't lie about it......the truth hurts sometimes but unless (for me) I feel and see it, I don't necessarily take the action necessary to change it.

Thanks!

Morning all,
Since it is Wahoo Wed. I do have a couple Wahoos. First I am down to a 56 pant from a 60 as of this weekend. Second was I was able to purchase a dress shirt from walmart and even though it is marked as the same size dress shirt I now normally wear (a 20 with 36/37 sleaves) it was way to big so I have to try a 19). At 35 a pop my dress shirts kill me because I ussually ruin 1 or 2 a month due to the job not being in the cleanest enviorments.

Keep chugging along.  Keep up the great work.

Congrats Bryan......keep working your tool and enjoying the excitement of size changes, woot!

I'm so glad things are going well for you Bryan!  Keep up the great work!

 Bryan.....you might want to check out Marshalls.    I went in there yesterday looking for my teenage son clothes for college and went through the men's dept.   I was SHOCKED to see big man's clothes up to size 4 X.   Those are really hard to find....so I bought my hubby 3 brand new shirts.   He was thrilled and wore one to work this AM.    Good job on the weight loss.   Dr. Kim's support group is tonight in his office at 6:30 if you and Alissa want to come.   Have a great day !!!


Hugs and blessings !! Vivian

Good morning!!  I'm up and ready for work with a few minutes to spare this morning!  Having a hard time getting back into the swing of things... that's the hardest part of having time off during the summer.  The good news is that the district is still on summer hours so we work a bit longer M-Th so we get Friday off.  Next week however it will be back to regular hours. 

I'm doing great on the recovery end of my plastics.  However, I don't know if I will ever really be able to appreciate it.  That damn mirror syndrome....  when I look in the mirror I still see that 300+ girl staring back at me.  I just don't notice the change.  Will that ever get better???   I thought that as long as I wasn't bruised and terribly swollen that no one at work would notice... WRONG!!!  I've had 3 people come right out and ask me... Oh when do you have surgery and 2 more that keep staring at me but don't have the nerve to ask!!!  So I'm sure by next week when all the teachers get back it will be the topic of discussion.   That's what happens when you get 100 gossipy women all together!!!  Oh well.... I'm not ashamed of it in anyway.  Just surprised that it was so noticeable.

Opps.... guess I killed some time as I need to head out the door.   Have a great day everyone and sending prayers out for all who need them today!!!!

 Paige...you are probably still swollen from you facelift.   I know when I had my LBL 2 yrs ago I was swollen for almost a yr.   I am sure that the swelling from the work you had done won't last that long though.   Everyone is probably just jealous of your face now.   Hope you continue to do well with your healing.

Good morning Train Riders!  I'm happy to report my Leo is getting back to normal. Woohoo!  He's walking around now, though he still won't walk down the stairs yet.  Next time we go to the pool he will be wearing booties whether he likes it or not!

Good day yesterday, got lots done at work and picked up another report that I'll be doing.  Chatted with my boss and she's very happy with what I'm doing, which is really nice to hear.  Jeff went and started the process for getting accommodations set up at school for his Aspergers.  He's got a meeting tomorrow with the lady that runs the program, so hopefully she can get him set up.  They have a support group for Asperger's that he's going to check out this afternoon too.  Hopefully he'll hear something from the PT job today about starting soon.

Not much planned for today.  I haven't made it to the gym due to my back being extremely pissed off, so I'm going to the chiro this afternoon.  Hopefully she can get it back to normal and I can do the elliptical for a while tonight.

Hope everyone has a great day!
