Monday Morning Weigh In

OK, here I am..I'm not too excited about my weight. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised, I (like so many here) am experiencing an unusual amount of stress.  I know things are always stressful during the holidays, but c'mon--I couldn't catch a break right now with a fishing net. I'm about ready to tear my hair out! I know that there are several others who are feeling unusual amounts of stress (or whatever you want to call it) right about now. I hope that we can change some things to correct or alleviate those stressors. I would NOT want to see how my B/P has been running the last week or so.  I'm thinking that one of these would be great right about now... Either that or find someone to just . If you are one of those folks and you have a good stress reliever, How about sharing your method??
OK, guys, here we go.. Jump on the "HAG"   record those digits and let us know how you are doing...Losses or gains, all results welcome here. I'll check back with ya after work to see how things went!  

Y'all try to have a great day!  I'm going to (try that is), NO MATTER WHAT!!!!!

Highest weight: 252
Surgery weight: 238
Weight last week: 145.7
Today's Weight: 145.9
Weight Gain/Loss for the week: +.2lbs
Total weight loss: 106.1

I am trying to figure out where my weight is going. I have had the worst stalls, usually about 15 days to lose a pound but things have been moving.

Highest weight: 242
Weight last week: 167
Todays weight: 165
Weight loss for week: -2 pounds
Total weight loss: 77

As long as it's moving, that's a good thing.  I hit a real slowdown about that time too, it'll pick back up again.  Have faith!!!  You're doing fine - Just think, in the last 6 months you have lost almost 80lbs!  WooHoo!!!!!

Hugs, Mari

 GOOD Morning...
Don't know where I'm really at or where I've been ... but the scale has been friendly the past few days.

Highest weight: 366
Weight last week: 194
Todays weight: 189.4
Weight loss for week: -4.6 pounds (was sick the past 2 weeks can't explain loss and gain at this point)
Total weight loss: 176.6 (of course the normal gain and lose that we all have at any given point)

Since I know where I am now... I know what I have to do!  

It has been REAL friendly - no matter how you got it (even tho I'm sorry that you had been sick for the last 2 weeks).  I hope that you can keep up the downhill trek without being ill.

Hugs, Mari 

Well good morning to all... I am up and ready to run this morning... I finally came off my stall and losing weight again.  I don't know how, or why, but I don't care as long as I am losing...
The weather is dreary but I won't let that get me down.  I feel great, and my son came by last night and was soooooo amazed at how I looked.  He told me "Mom, you look so skinny and damn you look good"!!!! Made me feel like I could do anything. (and Mari, that was WITHOUT the body shaper... yayyyyyyy!!!!
So total loss this week was 2.8 lbs. 

Today is December 7, 2009
Highest weight -268

Surgery weight -236.2

I was nervous about stepping on the scale this morning but it hadn't moved so I am still at my goal weight *whew*.  I even turned down some popcorn last night because I was afraid of the salt. 

Sorry you are stressed Mari.  I don't have any good advice, other than to ask yourself if the things you are worrying over will really matter a year from now.  That usually eliminates the small stuff but I know you are also worried about your job and that *WILL* matter a year from now.  I have been there with company layoffs on both sides - been laid off and been the one they kept and both were extremely stressful - nothing for it. 

After last week's 10lb loss I'm afraid to get on the scale tomorrow! My curiosity nagged me yesterday and The Nag said I had gained 1lb. If so, that's my first gain since surgery. But I refuse to dwell on it 'cause I know I'm followingall the rules. It is what it is!

Highest weight: 353
Surgery weight: 292
Weight last week: 246.2
Today's Weight: 247....it's hard to tell tenths on my old balance scale.
Weight Gain/Loss for the week: +.8lbs
Total weight loss: 106
