The Sunday Weekly Weigh-In

The Sunday Weekly Weigh-In
December 9th!  
Only 15 shopping days left for Christmas.....
(Continued thoughts, prayers and well wishes
out for all our guys 'near the edges'.....)


Congratulations and Welcome to our New Guys.
For those of you headed in next week--Have the Greatest!
For those of you just home—
"Keep Sippin' tha****er, and Walkin' Bunches"- Hang in there,
And all of you "Livin' on Liquid only Pre-Op Diets!! Same thoughts-
It Does Get Easier/Different, Each Week!
(You Handful of guys, just hitting your first stall? It happenes to many....
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!)
Yes, 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!

good morning, Been and up and down week.  SW 1-22-07         384 LW                         214 this week              211 11 more pounds until my one year goal is reached. I wish i could pick up my excercise but the pain in my back increases when I attempt to step it up a bit. So I will stick to minimal excercise and eating right and continue to lose at my current rate. JIm D
