Monday weigh in

I couldn't wait any longer for Kellie to fill in for Marge to post the weigh in so I'm going to fill in for Kellie who is filling in for Marge. 

How was everyone's weekend?  We spent it with a friend who was celebrating her 1 year surgiversary.  It was a fun day and we stayed very late.  I was amazed at the amount of food she prepared for us.  I guess she forgot we had all had weight loss surgery.  Sunday was a lazy day for me but lazy days are nice once in a while.

Well "scale" and I made up this morning and boy it was a good make up too.  I haven't weighed for 2 weeks because the scale wasn't moving and it's really discouraging.  My doc also started me on water pills because my ankles were swelling.  But "scale" was really sweet to me this morning, but I'm going to take it slow with "scale" and just keep our relationship at the once a week level for now.

SW:  371
two weeks ago: 269
TW:  Ta-da 257!

So...post your weight, whether up, down or just the same and we'll give you some love!

I had a good weekend, but I wi**** was longer, of course!

Consultation - 440
Surgery - 405
Last week - 267
This week - 265

Maybe I need to give the scale a break too, and then it will be my friend again. Its kind of a jerk, I thought about kicking it to the curb the other day.

I think the scale break is the best for our mental state.  It was really getting to me.  I did an analysis of my weight loss (soooo unlike me) and I've lost an average of 13.4 pounds a month for 9 months so that keeps my mind in check.  Now...if it would only be 13.4 pounds every months instead of 6 one month and 15 the next, I think I could handle it better.  kick him to the curb and see if he's nice to you!

Whoa, Kathy!  I'd marry my scale if it was that nice to me!  Maybe I need to divorce my scale.  No, I need the daily accountability to keep me honest.  If I divorced the scale, I'd turn into a floozy.

My weekend was uneventful, other than the fact that at my hair appt on Saturday, my beloved hair stylist announced he was retiring and moving to Arizona to pursue another career.  I almost started crying right there in the salon.  I don't trust just anybody to cut my hair, so the thought of having to find a replacement makes me weep.  Not only that, he's a hoot.  We're kindred spirits.

My sister and I went to breakfast yesterday and the restaurant served enormous portions of food.  I was full just looking at it.  No wonder folks from other countries think we eat too much!

No loss for me this week.  I may try cutting my calories a bit, but I don't want to go into starvation mode.  I would probably do better by amping up my exercise.  We'll see about that.  I am still faithfull journaling my food.

Beginning weight: 530 lb
