Sunday weigh-In
303.0: all time high 9/16/08
273.3: Surgery 3/25/09
185.0: Goal ! 9/9/09 -- New Goal 175
175.2: Last week
173.0: This week -- passed Goal #2
Blew right through Goal # 2 @ 175 lbs. Been trying to bump up the calories a bit to slow down the loss. Still averaging 600-800 calorie deficit per day (per my gowearfit and food logging on Daily Plate) but it is tough to get in any more calories. Since my PCP said he'd be OK with me anywhere between 165.0 and 170.0, I'm setting Goal #3 at 170.0

I had my 6 month check up with my surgeon last week, even though my 6 mo anniversary isn't really until 11/18....but that's the only free appt he had.
Regardless, I found out that my highest weight was even higher than I remembered, so there were 7 more additional pounds i wasn't counting. LOL. Only 7 pound difference, but I figure I shouldn't cheat myself 1 single pound! It's weight that's gone, so I'm going to acknowledge it.
Anyway, here are the stats :
Highest Weight : 361
Surgery Weight : 311
Last Week : 235
Today : 230! (woo hoo!)

Mike,
Thank you for starting this thread yesterday.
I was at the OH conference in Atlanta since Friday PM. Learned a few things and got to meet a lot of people but not too many men there. Of the few there most were support people and not WLS patients.
Holding steady at 167.0 this AM. Have been back in GA since last Thursday but have to go back next week. Still waiting on final answers from interviews. Trying to hustle up some more for next week to be on safe side.
