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?

Hey Herb, Was that 228 this week?  Poss typo....  When I read it the first time I thought... No way a 19 lb gain in 1 week! Then I saw you lost a pound this week.  (I guess I can do the math) Keep up the great work!  I'm also down to 228 this week! --Dave

No, I had a typo. I was 249 last week and now 248.  I am looking forward to being 228 soon though... :) Herb

You are doing awesome, You'll be at 228 before you know it!!  I just hit 228 and am extatic.  I'm now in my high school weight range!!   --Dave
