Congratulations on entering Onderland! Last week was a good week. I got in more protein daily. I worked out 5 out of 7 days. I am getting better on the eliptical. It is still kicking my but, just not as bad. All in All it wasn't so bad. I am getting closer and closer to under 300 pounds. 10 more to go. BEGINNING WEIGHT-362(01/13/07) SURGERY WEIGHT-357(01/19/07-the day released from hospital) LAST WEEK-314 THIS WEEK-310 My 2 month anniversay was on Saturday. I have lost a total of 52 pounds. I don't have 1 pair of shoes that fit me. I am wearing gym shoes now because I can tie them up to keep them on my feet. I will go shoe shopping on Friday. I thought I wore a size 8.5 but those are big as well. So I guess I will see exactly what size I wear on Friday. It is a bad thing because I have tons of shoes in a size 9W that are no good to me.

I'm with you Marge, I hit Onderland and it looks like it may be here to stay this time!   Consult weight - 356 Last week - 205 This week - 198  Total weight loss - 158

I didn't eat right all weekend and was dreading the scales this morning, but it was still the same as Friday!  Woohoo!

I'm taking a long weekend this week and will try to make better food choices!  Maybe being in and trying to stay in Onderland will be enough motivation for me!  I sure hope so! Ya'll have a great week!

Way to Go Marge!! Woohoo!! Highest Weight  327 Surgery Weight   318 Last Week            285 This week             281.4

NANETTE 

Nanette, I'm so sorry to hear about your dogs; my deepest sympathy on your loss.  Is there any chance you had some of the dog food that has been recalled?  You may want to double check in case you have other dogs...   Again, my heart-felt sympathy on your loss -  Kellie

Kellie,        Thank you, I am still in shock i think, we did research on the dog food recall and thank god it wasnt that so we still arent sure what it was but we live in the country and they run alot outside so we will probably never know.  We have gotten the little dogs that we have in the house lab work to make sure that everything is ok with them and there ok so  we just sit and wait. Thank you again for your concern. Nanette 

'Atta girl, Marge for making it to Onederland!!!  What a great accomplishment - way to go!  Here's my numbers for the week: Starting weight:  396 Surgery weight:  386 Last week's weight:  217.9 Today's weight:  213.3 Here's hoping I can join Marge in onederland before long! Kellie

Yeah Marge!!! What a great feeling that would be! You have worked so hard and now you are reaping the benefits - congrats! I had my 6 month follow-up appt with my surgeon last Thursday and he was thrilled with my progress - said I am ahead of schedule. My nutritionist gave me a paper with A+ written all over it - it was pretty cute , she is such a sweetheart! I had the flu all weekend and I was sure that I would gain (I ALWAYS gain when I am sick, even if I eat nothing. Just a weird body quirk). But, I am happy to say that I lost 4 pounds! I hit my goal for March 31 two weeks ahead of schedule and I am now in the 30 BMI range! Actually, it's 39.9 but I'm taking it :-) Surgery weight: 371 Last weeks weight: 251 This weeks weight: 247 That's 124 gone - I still can't believe it!

I haven't been doing as well after my plastic surgery as I am still tired and find it a challenge to exercise.  And why is it that some weeks protein just sits so heavy!  But I did lose another 2 pounds this week despite myself.  So it was back to the exercise bike this morning and a new recipe for lunch.  Got 12 more pounds to go to reach goal by May 15.
