Here we go again with scale watching..

Bonnie thanks for the support I really appreciate it. I know the scales are not all the same.. my doc just got a new scale, thats the one I weighed 238 on.. it is a upright digital.. but made for normal weight people.. the surgeons scale is the big wide one the weighs up to 700 lbs.. I have no idea how much I will weigh on it.. but the last time I weighed 257 at the PCP in July and I wnet to the surgeon 3 days later and it said 258  so they were pretty close but yet it was higher.. I was on the diet then  lost so much weight on.. so I should not have gained.. I did however not take off my shoes.. I will this time.. If I have to I will take off more..lol...

congrats on your weight loss that is fantastic.. I am going to the thrift store for my clothes as I loose.. I am not going to buy anything new for at least two years.. great bargains at the thrift stores.. I like to try to hit the 1/2 off days.. then I can get tops and pants for $1.00..  maybe you cna find a place near you like that..

You are right I have put it in God's hands.. I cant do much on my own but Pray,, He has got me this far so maybe it will all be ok.. I am really nervous though.. I ahve worked so hard and long for this to not happen now..

I used to take off my underwear & bra in the bathroom before I weighed in, and wear a VERY light gauzy skirt and a tank top.  I am liking this naked idea though!!!

Thats funny I never thought about that..  I always try to wear very thin clothes.. but I had to wear pants yesterday.. it was cold in St. Louis.. I did all I could do for the weigh in.. and it paid off.. I didnt have to get naked.. I told the nurses I had told my friend out there in the lobby that if she heard screams it was me stripping and the nurses screaming.. the nurses started laughing so hard they were almost crying.. I got on the scales and waited for it to reveal the weight.. I even blew out all my air and waited.. I was fine ....I weighed 236... I actually was 2 lbs under the PCP weight... 

isnt it funny how an object like the scale can make us do such crazy things and think of crazy ways to make the numbers lower.. ...

THINK THIN!! THINK THIN!!

I did I did I did .... it worked   236....yippee,,,,,,

 Hang in there, you are on to something, start the pre-op diet think positive and do not stress over this, stress makes us hold weight.    Praying for a good outcome for you!

thanks for the prayers.. I really appreciate them.. it paid off.. I made it.. I actually was 2 lbs less than PCP I weighed in at 236
