  today's the day y'all!!!  i stepped on the scale this morning and due to TOM this week wasn't expecting "great" numbers, i did see a 1, followed by a 6.  my goal is to see a 1, followed by a 5...;)

let's start this thing off with a bang.  my philosophy is to get back to basics.  the only way to do that is to review everything in my WLS book that my doctor provided.  i need to treat these next 13 weeks like my first 13 weeks following WLS.  never would i have baked cookies AND proceed to eat them...ALL!  i treated my band like a baby and followed the rules to a "T". 

if you want to get back to basics, pull out your books.  i know some of you have to blow the dust off of 'em...hehehe... and start treating your tool like you did when you were first blessed with it.

i'm going to make small goals...following in Tel's footsteps, i'm going to focus on 5lb increments.  this month i want to lose 5lbs. 

excercise is never an issue, so i know i can achieve that goal.

so BAF, today is the day.  are you ready??

I am ready too (((Tay)))!!!  I weighed in at 187.6 this morning.  As I stated yesterday, my goal is to lose 10 pounds by the end of the challenge.  I have also learned to take baby steps as well.  Right now I am still chasing 185. Once there, it will be 179.  I do not believe that I have seen a 179 number since the year 1979...LOL!!!

Faith, I was just telling my co-worker that I won't know how to act when I weigh 179!! I think the last time I weighed that amount was when my daughter was a baby and she's 12 now.  This challenge really has me motivated!!

Hey ((((Tel))) Great!  I hope we will be able to motivate each other!  I see my WLS doctor on Nov. 8th for my semi-annual visit.  I am going to ask him if he thinks that I need one.

Well this morning I got on the scale and I was 235 so hopefully by the end of this challenge I will be at least at 199 which will be a total lost of 179lbs.  I have on a size 14/16W leggin today so hopefully by New Years I will be able to fit in to a size 12 none stretch dress pant.  I am willing to put in the work.  What a great ideal I will go back and read the book I received from my surgeons office.

With my TOM also, wasnt expecting anything too moving. To my surprise (I typically weigh in on Wednesday's) I am at 266.0 down 3.9lbs from two days ago! Lets do this!

isn't it lovely to see the scale move down instead of up during that "time"?  great job!
