Monday Morning TURKEY DAY Weigh In
Highest: 248
Surgery: 233
Last Week: 147.4
Today: 147.4
Weekly loss: 0.0
Total loss: 102 lbs
My weight bounced up and down a 1/2 pound or so all week, but ended up right where I started last Monday so I will take it.
I am looking forward to enjoying a bit more food this year than last year, but not so much that I overdo or stretch my pouch. I am cooking for a small group so there won't be huge amounts of leftovers - just me, hubbie, my brother and his girlfriend. My youngest doesn't care anything about eating Thanksgiving food and my oldest will probably graze a bit then hit his Grandma's feast and his girlfriend's house.
Happy Turkey Day, everyone!!

Many of us seem to have had a common complaint (not sure that's the right word or not) about the bouncing thing. It's a tough time of year for us...I'm not really preparing anything but a few items that I know I can eat. Am going to a friend's home, and am not going to worry about what I can or can't eat. A little "chocolate" meat, a bite of dressing, a few veggies and I'm taking Viv's Pumpkin Mousse for ME for dessert! I'll be a happy camper, because I am here, better than I was and embarking on a new and better year! AND I won't have all that food in MY house!! Well except for the dessert and some Turkey that is coming home with me, whether they like it or not!
Have a wonderful Turkey day, my surgery sister! Can't wait to see you again!
Hugs, Mari

That's why we call her the HAG!!! I dread Mondays when I have to get on the scale and see what I have or haven't done! Whether it's .8 or 4.4...it's still a loss. I'm going to start getting out the stick and beating the HAG (like a durned old horse) into submission!!!!!!! (Like how I got that in there????) Hee-hee!!!
IMHO - you have done an amazing job and when I see your before pics, I still can't believe the difference! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!! You be da bomb, hunny!!!

Scale is not my friend, but I also haven't been able to work out for 3 weeks due to pulled muscle in my back. Today will be my first attempt back to cardio....
Highest weight: 313
Surgery weight: 290
Weight last week: 151.5
Today's weight: 153.5
Weight Gain/Loss for the week: +2.0
Total weight loss: 159.5
Scale is bouncing up/down, but my overall trend is down in spite of looking like I gained 2 lbs. I had been bouncing between 152-156, last week dipped to 151.5 and bounced back up to 154.5; so today's 153.5 is actually good. Hubby thinks it's funny that my weight can fluctuate up to 4 lbs literally, overnight.... I don't find it so amusing, but also try not to get too worked up, so long as the overall trend is down.
Happy Turkey Day all!

OH yea...mine bounces like that as well (well...maybe not quite as much) and it makes me NUTZ!!! Take care of that back! and don't do too much too quickly! You'll get right back on that horse and ride it right on through......(Just don't take hints from Jodie and beat it first...heehee!) Sorry, small, albeit VERY small attempt at humor!! Just keep hanging in there! You can do it!!!

I had a little WOW moment this weekend also. First let me say that I detest pantyhose, so I only buy and wear them when absolutely necessary. Well, this weekend I had to buy some. The last time I bought a pair it was a 4x but Saturday I was able to buy a size B! I was so excited! Crazy wow, but I will take what I can get!

There is nothing 
about it!!! I know what you mean tho -- I did just about the same thing when I bought pantyhose to wear to OH Conf. Ya see, I have one of those jobs where I wear jeans and steel-toed boots. I don't get the opportunity (besides the fact that I hate pantyhose) and was so freaked that I bought one pair and had to go back and get one smaller. So I get you!! and 
to you!!!
