Sunday Weekly Weigh-In

I will be 6th months postop on The 4th of July. Down 2 pounds since last week, 132 down since surgery and 222 since my highest last July 10th.

Hey Jim, We are running on almost identical progress! A few milestones for me this week. First, I am in the "200 teens", which I have not been at since college. (20+ years) Also, I am wearing size 38x30 pants. I think I wore a 36x30 20 years ago when I was about this same weight, but I had a lot more muscle on me then. Either way, it has been a long, long time since I have had pants on the the waist started with a 3. Here are the digits.

Morning Guys! Bad week!  We had a person leave my place of employment this week.  Sorry to see her go, she was a sweetheart with 2 small boys,  She left to finish her Masters in Social Work.  Unfortunately, she brought Sweet & Sassy ( a fantastic bakery) peanut butter cookies on Monday, chocolate  & peanut butter brownies on Tuesday, & chess squares on Thursday!  Damn her hide...and damn my hide, I ate more than my share each day.  Hence the weight gain!  But today is a new day and I am back on track...! Have a great day! First day of 6 month diet (Pre Op): 355.9  Last Dr.'s appointment 6/20: 315.0 Last Sundays weight: 312.4 Weight this AM (7/1): 315.5 Weight gain this week: 3.1 lbs.

Jim, Thanks for getting us off and running... Loss has all but stopped. Looking back, aside from two week, the last 6 have been sliding very slowly. This just so happens to coincide when I stopped keeping an intake diary. Being totally honest with myself I have come to the conclusion that no diary = no accountability. Soooo effective today, I am going back to keeping a food intake diary. I had planned on making the century mark by the 4^th of July, and I am not about to drop that goal just because it is convenient.

Highest weight: 375 First Consult: 364 Pre-op: 324 Today: 203 One pound from not being obese,  just over weight.  The last couple of weeks I have lost about four pounds or better each week. I have changed a couple of things.  First I don't eat after 9:00 pm, I still drink water and have my SF popcicles.  Second I try to measure snacks. I usually do this with what I take something to work, but when I was around the house I would just grab a small handful. If I measure out an oz. of almonds or cashews or jerky I tend to stop when I eaten what I have measured out.  pan head
