Howdy,

I don't know about you, but I'm freezin'. It's been raining here in the desert, so the rare humidity makes it seem colder than normal. I'm hoping it means we'll get a good year for wildflowers. We're supposed to get three times our normal rain for the year THIS WEEK.

Starting Weight: 388
Last Week: 266
Today: 262

Everyone have a great week -- whenever you checkin or weigh!!

Hi!

It's a bright sunshiney day in South Florida, a bit cool but likely going to be in the 70's this afternoon--pool time for me on this day off!

YaY, I too dropped lbs. this week...I think four pounds, making me...239!!! Yippadee! I've lost 151 lbs since 3/31/09 surgery and am very happy! The losses seem to be sporatic now, and ironically during my period, weird...but I'll take em!

Have a extra-gratifying week (hopefully a four-day work week for ya!)...stay warm, northerners!

I've been sick, sick, sick. Horrible head cold from Hell. It's been over a week now. Went to urgent care and got antibiotics and it seems to be getting a bit better.

My sleep cycle is screwed up and I'm not even taking mid day naps. Last night I was still wide awake at 5am and didn't wake up until almost 2pm today. Tonight I will take a benedryl or something at an early hour to try to snap me out of this sleep wierdness.

I've been unable to work out due to being sick. It's been all I can do to get my protein and fluids in. Can't wait to start feeling better as my work out buddy is chomping at the bit to get me back to the gym.

Start weight: 322
Last week: 268.2
Today: 264.6

Hope everyone has a great week!

Sounds like everyone is having a good week! 

Highest Weight - 400
Surgery Weight - 354
Last Week - 316.6
Today's Weight - 309.4

I officially started my work outs last Wednesday.  I am walking on the treadmill (.5 miles to start) and doing circuit training with cardio.  The circuit takes 15 minutes 1 time around.  It is a start to someone who hasn't excercised in quite a while.

I did go shopping this week because my clothes were getting way too big.  I started out in size 30/32 and am now in a size 24 with room to spare!  I even bought some 22's that I could fit in but that were a little tight since I found a good sale.  It was a real WOW moment for me because I haven't seen a size 24 jeans in about 10+ years.  I am 45 lbs lost since my surgery!

Have a great week everyone!
