The Sunday Weekly Weigh-In
January 20th!


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! 

... 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!

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

Me?-   
185 ...Saturday Weight, and top of my "range!" I've had two steroid shots this week.... So hoping that's the cause! I've done extra jogging and walking for the last two weeks, And may pull some of my fat intake back this week...

So, What about YOU?




Keep It Up!!!
Best Wishes-Mike Wazowski

Hi DX and group: It's been quite a while since I've posted, maybe even a year or more. My highest weight was 320,  since my surgery on July 26 2006, my lowest weight has been 165. Wife and Dr said I looked kinda puny. I am now trying to hold between 175 and 185 Current weight today is 182. I want to thank all of you for your support after surgery.  With my job keeping me busy 60 hrs a week, and trying to have a life of skiing, canoeing, I am also trying Ice fishing, with not too much success. I have  caught a few keepers, nothing to brag about. To all you newbies out there.  There is a great llife after surgery. Hang in there. Dave N  Minnesota

Dx, I'm not weighing in.  Rather, I'm sending you a brief note here because I'm having some sort of problem with contacting people via e-mail through ObesityHelp.com this am.  It'll probably be resolved in a little while. I just wanted to say that my nephew who is a theater arts major at Montclair U in NJ got all "A" s in his theater courses and all "B" s in everything else.  My brother is proud of him because he's an active volunteer EMT in a squad about 30 miles from there and still managed to put in the most hours of all of the EMTs on the weekends.  My brother had been concerned that the EMT work would have a negative impact on his school work.  But, he's pulling it off. We're especially proud of all of his accomplishments since he was born when his mother was in her mid 30s and he had developmental problems at first.  Hard work by him and his family has paid off.  He's a wonderful and outgoing young man.

Hey guys, Long time no see. Fianlly had my 1 year anniversary last week but never posted on it. I only relized it because my wife sent me an Edible Arrangement to work congratulating (SP) me. Still holding strong between 215 and 220 I will post my obligatory 1 year post later. Going to the AFC Championship game today. It's great to be able to fit my former fat ass in those little seats now. I am no longer "that guy". GO PATRIOTS!!!!!!!!

GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
