Weekly Weigh In July 9 - July 15

I didn't actually weigh myself this morning, but I'll get us going anyway. I had a bad weekend so my weight is up because of that - I let myself get super dehydrated on Friday due to some stomach thing, and then I ended up eating all the carbs over the weekend to make myself feel better. Because that totally makes sense, eh?

HW: 319

LW: 159.4
TW (yesterday): 158.6

Next goal: making my signature honest - 149!

I was 156.2 on Saturday, but I'm pretty sure that was due to very bad dehydration more than actual weight.

How about you all? Any weekly weighers around?

I had kind of forgotten about this board. I have been slowly creeping in the right direction... I tend to stay the same for several weeks and then have a small loss. This far out any loss is OK.

4 yrs. Post-op.

Highest weight: 420+

Surgery consult: 383

Today's weight 175

Hi, My name is Mary. I weigh 354lbs 5ft 6inch. I was injured 6 years ago and gained a lot of weight. I finally got approved for surgery. I'm in Oregon so it will be OHSU. I have few things to do before surgery... I'm looking forward to it. My question to you is... Excess skin plastic surgery, is it expensive? My insurance says they will only cover tummy tuck.

Hi,

I'm new to the boards and currently 20 months out from my D/S surgery. Doing pretty well and surpassed my three year goal at 18 months and I'm at my "wish goal" as of yesterday. Now my GP would like me to lose more weight... I told him I was staying on the program until I was two years out and whatever weight I was, I would be happy with it. My stats are as follows.

HW 6/6/16 #398.89 BMI 67.4

SW 11/29/16 #356 BMI 60.2

CW 0723/18 #170 BMI 27.1

I'm currently still doing very low carb, high protein, lots of water, walking and hitting the gym three times a week.

Thanks,

Liz

Hi Liz,

I'm fairly new although I've been a member since 2003 and I recently activated my account.

I'm trying to lose weight as well but unfortunately, I gained a few pounds over the past few months and I want to try and lose some soon.

I tend to eat for comfort and then I get guilt trips when I overeat and it has become a negative cycle which I want to break but I'm so used to eating to comfort myself and reduce anxiety.

It sounds strange but this is what I'm dealing with.

I drink lots of water too

but I don't take enough exercise and I think that is why I gained a few pounds over the past 6 months.

I weighed 90kg on the 28/02/18 and yesterday 08/08/18 I weighed 90.6 kgs

which was sad but it just reminds me that I need to get a hold of my eating and be more active but I'm also dealing with depression so it is difficult.

Hi Trevor - do you have the option of seeing a therapist to help you address the comfort eating?

Hope everything is back on track! I'm currently past my lowest goal weight and might even go a bit lower. Still walking, drinking water, hitting the gym 3 plus times a week, and I added bike riding a few times a week.

As far as my eating goes I've added back in a few carbs but still not many, plus added calories. Really trying to find that sweet spot where I can maintain my weight, just need to balance my protein, carbs, calories.
