Weekly Weigh In 12/14-12/20
Ugh, I gained this week for the first time ever! Only one pound but I'm not happy. I'm also not freaking out. I did my annual Christmas in Chicago trip with my best friend this weekend and it's always harder to eye exactly how much I'm eating then since I eat out or at least away from my house for every single meal for 4 days. I followed my rules of course and only ate protein and some veggies. So sigh I'll just be back to my regular meals this week, just hoping I go back to my normal dropping this week!
High weight: 377

A surprising drop this week. I know the plateau will rear it's ugly head before long, but for now, I will just enjoy it. Just need 2 pounds and 1/2" off my bust gone to make my January 1st goal! Starting to think about my first day of spring goals!

I had an amazing week on the scale. I got up yesterday and it read 199.6! Well I had a little bounce back today. So I'm not officially going to count it until I see it multiple days in a row..but I know it is coming soon. It's going to be a great Christmas present to myself.

Hang in there, everyone!! This is my 8th holiday season since my RNY. For me, it has gotten easier to get through as time goes by. Usually I gain 5-7 pounds and then lose them in the spring but right now I am maintaining.

I'm having some bounce back action going on, but I know it's water weight. I had to wait a bit to make sure. I've upped my bike riding a lot for the last week & my body went into oh **** I have to hold onto every molecule of water mode. So it shot right up to 200lbs at 1 point where I went into freak out mode, my tom didn't help things any, but I took a breath & stayed the course, where it went down to 199, then 197. So its finally starting to calm down some. That 192 was starting to feel like a teaser, but I'm guessing when my body stops freaking out & gets used to my new normal, I'll be back on point again. So my stats so far:
High weight 366
Last week 192
This week 197
Next goal 180's (surgeons goal)

OK it happened
Highest ever: 420+
Highest at surgeon:383
Last week: 202
This week: 199
I have not been below 200 since I started trying to get pregnant with my son. He is almost 28.
EDIT: Wednesday is my usual 'official' weigh day. Today, Wednesday, I am 198. ??? that is 6# in 2 weeks. I don't know why, but I am excited. My thyroid med was upped a month ago, maybe? and it is kicking in. I am now in single digit - 9lbs to my goal of "normal' body fat percentage.
