The Sunday Weekly Weigh-In
The Sunday Weekly Weigh-In __________February 11th!
(Buy those Valentine gifts Now!!! or have a TV installed in the dog-house)
Congratulations and Welcome to our New Guys.
For those of you headed in next week--Have the Greatest!
For those of you just home--"Livin' on SF Popsicles"- Hang in there,
It Does Get Easier Each Week!
I know that using the scales can make some crazy,
(Slower loss is Still Loss!)
-But-
Keeping track and forcing myself to "Watch It!"
Has been the "What works for me," for maintaining my loss.
I'll eat, but know that I need to exercise a little bit more
If the numbers climb just a little.
That way,
I only make "Little" adjustments to my weekly routine.
If the "Scales Make You Discouraged?"
Then STAY OFF of Them!
But for those who Are weighing in-
Drum roll---------------------------------------------------------
Hop your Azz up on the Scales!
How much have you lost?
Since Surgery?
Or in Pre-Op Diet?
And has the Scale moved this week for you?
If so, How Much?
My Starting Weight? - 385 +
All Time Low - 179
Today? - 184.5 - Up a half-lb, and almost back up to my Goal weight.....
(but actually my 'Late Saturday Night Weight... so I'm betting a trip to the toilet in the morning will have me back to the same ole, same ole...)
So, What about YOU?
(NEW GUYS AND LURKERS?
Scan back over the last months of this weekly post,
And you'll get a fairly clear picture of the fact that there isn't a "Typical" progress,
Just massive, persistent, overwhelming - PROGRESS!)
(Plateaus DO BREAK!)
(Congratulations in Advance!!)
Keep It Up!!!
Best Wishes-
