MONDAY WEIGH IN (November 24, 2008)

Just another manic Monday, particularly for me.  We are in the middle of trying to get out a Request for Proposals for the tobacco program and the #&$*%@ application seems to have taken on an alternate life form!  Oy!  Not to mention, there are three of us in the grants mgt unit -- two monitors and one boss.  The experienced monitor is leaving on Wednesday so now I have to grow up really, really fast! 

It's going to be a terrific week for me!  I put my sister on a plane yesterday to California, where she will spend the week with her kids.  This means a week of bliss for me, woo!  Not to worry, I have plans for the holiday so I won't be by myself.  I have to work on Friday, anyway.

Not only that, let's hear a resounding "PRAISE JEEBUS" (tm Homer Simpson).  After weeks of being wedged into a plateau, the scales have shifted.  Woo!  Gee, who'd have thunk that by following the WLS basics of eating (protein/water), one could actually lose?  D'oh! 

Kix

Beginning weight: 530 lb
Surgery weight: 407 lb
My weight for the past 1,000,000 weeks: 238 lbs
This week: 233 lbs!

Although my bathroom scale sucks (gives me different weights everytime I hop on, even 3 times in a row! grrr) It said 308.4 today. I don't know if I buy it bc/ yesterday It told me I was 312! I was 310 at the dr last week on a real scale. I need a more accurate home scale I think.

Woo hoo, congrats on the lose!

I'm going to go ahead and post tonight because work has been absolutely bonkers and it gets even worst this week, so I know I won't have time to do this later.

surgery weight: 371
last week's weight: 193
this week's weight: 191
goal: 170

I am slowly getting down to my weight, slow and steady is my goal. All I want is to fit in my size 10 skinny jeans - I love those things!

Here's my numbers for the week... hope it doesn't go up this week with Turkey day coming up!!!

surgery wt:  344
last week:  224.8

Surgery Weight (known highest) 440
Last Friday at about 6:30 a.m., it was a beautiful Friday morning, I wore a green dress to work, size 24. Can you tell it was special day? It was a special day because I weighed 262 lbs!!!!
Today's weight: 265

Yes, I remain humbly yours, the bouncer. 

Good morning, all, and welcome to Thanksgiving week.  I'm still have issues w/ swelling, plus Aunt Flo should arrive any day now, so I'm retaining fluids, feeling puffy and cranky.  Scale moved up a little from the past few weeks, but I think that's just b/c of the swelling and Aunt Flo's imminent arrival.  Anyway, here's this week's info: 

Beginning weight:  396
Surgery weight:  386
Last week:  183.2
This week:  185

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!!!
