Sunday Morning Weigh In

Ken,

Lost a little bit more than 130 pounds when I lost the GF.

Slow weight loss week.  Not sure why.  Only about 2.5 lbs, but it seemed like more.  My exercise was limited due to a back injury, so that may explain it.  Still, averaging about 5 a week since surgery, which is promising.

262: Highest Known Weight 2/3/11
248: RNY Gastric Bypass Surgery Weight 2/14/11
195: Into Wonderland 5/6/11
180: 30 pounds from goal 6/10/11
169: Within 20 pounds of goal 6/29/11
159:Didn't lose any weight  but still  Within 10 pounds of my goal. 8/7/11
152: Within TWO pounds of goal. 8/21/11
 As I stated two weeks ago I wasn't discouraged by lack of loss that week as I tend to  lose in bunches. I am now over six months since surgery and two pounds within my artificial goal of 150 (good round number). FYI I am only 5'5 . I would like to lose about another 15 pounds to get to ideal BMI and I do believe I will get there as I continue to exercise and avoid bread, rice, and pasta. According to my surgeon's program I could begin to reintroduce whole grain bead and pasta now but I would like to wait until I reach my goal weight. I bought a mat and workout gloves and have added soem core exercises to my 6 days a week of treadmill with weights.

Highest weight 387

Surgery weight. 384. 5/23/2011

Slow progress this week but the scale is still headed in the right direction...

Current Weight: 185 lbs

Total Loss: 125 lbs (from highest weight)

Maintaining my weight and loving the results. So far I’ve lost the combined equivalent of a 2-month old horse, a sperm whales brain, a chihuahua, and an ostrich egg. Don’t miss that combination a bit.

For Don, are we supposed to offer congratulations or consolences on the loss of a girlfriend?? Not sure what's appropriate. But, hopefully, you'll find something else to occupy your time and energy.

 

338.x, I was up a pound this week (week 3 of the pre-pre surgery diet) but that happens!!

Sleep Apnea test tonight and NUT visit tomorrow.  (Possibly could have my surgery date assigned this week!!)

Late in posting this week as the weekend was a blur. My parents are in town from Florida for my daughters first birthday. I am down 6 pounds this week and below the 369 goal set by my doc for surgery sign-off. I go back on Friday for an official weigh-in and should be able to submit for final approval.
