Monday Weigh In: Pre-, Post- and Non- ops welcome!
Okay, it's official--- I am S-T-A-L-L-I-N-G!! Does anyone know if there is a stall around 6 months out?
And I have menstrual cramps (I think). Just one of those days when you want to stay curled up in bed under the covers with a warm bottle of Pamprin.
I'm at work and I'm tempted to get some tea, but I'm afraid I'd pour it down the front of my pants because I don't have a heating pad here.
(I am hoping that maybe I'm just retaining water because it's that TOM, but the stall has been happening for a few weeks.)
Yuck.
Start: 388
Last: 281
This Week: 283
(No snarky comments about Patty T. today!!)

One food makes you larger, and one food makes you small...
Hey,
I am sorry to see that you are stalling, but my Doc told me not long ago to expect one around 4 weeks out, around 6 months out and around a year out. So it sounds normal to me.
Tea also sounds awesome right about now, but I havent been able to find any caffeen free around here. Any ideas?
All time high: 456
SW:396
Last week:386
This week:373 that -13 lbs!
I'm excited I am gonna start a gym membership today
Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Whee! You're doing great!! Have fun at the gym!!
Thanks for the info on the stalls.
I find caffeine-free tea in most of my local supermarkets. Celestial Seasoning's Lemon Zinger herb tea helped me survive initially. I don't know where you live - but I imagine it's available everywhere.
I've also purchased decaf green tea bags at the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf here in So. Calif. And I found black Tetley decaf, Lipton decaf in my local Albertsons. I bought some English Breakfast decaf at Fresh and Easy the other day. I have a box of decaf chai tea that is hard to find, so I ration that out. It's wonderful mixed with some skim milk and vanilla protein powder.
However, I'm at the point where I'll drink just one cup of the caffeinated stuff in the morning. (I try to avoid it after 6 p.m. because it won't let me sleep.)

I also think I may be approaching my TOM. My sense of smell is hightened and my weight has not really been doing what I want it to on this low cal, high protein liquid diet.
My surgery is this Thursday and I'm starting to feel a bit nervous. I'm sure Aunt Flow will gleefully join me Thursday morning just to **** me off.
