Weekly Weigh In 10/5 to 10/11

First weekly weigh-in post-op!

Highest Ever: 380

Last Week: 304 (Ballooned up to 324 last Wednesday after getting home from surgery! Holy water weight, Batman!)

This Week: 309

Next Goal: Finish dropping the hospital water weight and hit that 299 mark!

Hope everyone has a great week!

Was just coming here to do this :) That sucks that you gained that much from the surgery - ugh!! Hope everything is going well!!

I'm so excited because I finally reached my first major goal! I set a huge goal of 202 pounds at the beginning and had no idea if it was even feasible. Now I feel like it's possible. Still no job though ugh...but my editing is going well and I'm getting new clients all the time. If I could keep that going it would be great.

Highest Ever: 377

Last week: 280

This week: 276 - Lost 101 pounds - exactly 50% to goal at a little over 6 months out!!

Next goal: 250

Woohoo finally made it to ONDERLAND!, made a post on the main forum, but OH is buggy again, it kept asking for a subject & I put it in 3x & still got an error to put in a subject, had to rearrange it to finally get it to post. Anyway I finally see the 1 b4 my weight, weighed myself 2 different days just to check if it was there to stay, so yay me! Now it's onto my surgeons goal of the 180's then my goal of the 150's. I'll see where to go from there. My stats so far:

High weight 366

Last week 201

This week 198

Next goal 180's (surgeons goal)

Sounds like onederland finally heard you knocking for so long! Awesome job!!

I've been wondering how you were managing post op. Off to a good start I see-- hope all is well!

Thanks Peachpie! Everyone's well wishes the last week have really helped. Definitely a lot of pain and soreness and feeling 'out of it'! Day by day I feel a small bit better though!

Take it day by day, sip, sip sip, walk,walk,walk, repeat often. It'll get better.Rest when you need to, your body is in healing mode right now. Hope you have a speedy recovery!

Please tell me what the meaning of people using names with the word "Hag" in it? LOL! I must be missing something LOL!

((My understanding is...))

There was an obnoxious poster in the General Forum last month sometime that basically called a bunch of the WLS vets "Old Hags" or something. A few members have now deemed themselves hags and proud! Pretty funny.

I would go look for it for you, but since I ignored the member, I can't see those posts anymore. (Whew.)

Oh yes, it's just what Felicity mentioned, there was an op a while back that insulted one of the vets & she said something about how we were old hags or something, it was a crazy thread & she did pm me back & said she didn't mean me, etc,etc. I still thought it was insulting, so a bunch of us changed our names to include the word hag in it. I like it & it kinda stuck, my original screen name is still 1lasttime, but hagalicious, now that's a name! LoL
