BMI steady but slowly coming down ...reminds me of a TURTLE
I'm still waiting on my surgery date....I pray they tell me this coming week. I started out at 68.5 BMI...today its 64. I'm so happy with that and so is my knees. I love the encouragement and inspiration I get on this site. It helps me to stay focused and on track. I have been day dreaming of all the stuff I plan on doing that I cant do now because of my weight. I have been so much more active (as much as my knees allow) But mentally and emotionally I"m doing amazing. I hope you all are having a wonderful beautiful day and keep being losers!
Hang in there. I was not able to lose anything while I was waiting for surgery. I needed the surgery to be successful.
Focus on making healthy choices right now. Try to limit your portion sizes because a lower weight will make surgery easier for your surgeons, but do not stress about it.

What shall I return to the Lord for all his bounty to me?
I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the Lord, I will pay my vows to the Lord in the presence of all his people. Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his faithful ones.
O Lord, I am your servant; I am your servant, the child of your serving girl. You have loosed my bonds. -- Psalm 116:12-16
