Weigh Day Tomorrow
Okay, so since Jennifer has retired from this board, I would like to know how many of you would like to continue on with the Monday morning weigh-ins. I personally love this thread and would be honored to help it keep going, but only if ya'll still want to do it. As you all know, I use it in the opposite manner than you all, as I am trying to gain or at least maintain, while I know the rest of you are trying to maintain or lose.
I am going to go ahead and post it tomorrow, or if someone has weighed and comes on and I have not done it yet, please feel free to start the thread. I will post as soon as I get my lazy hiney outta bed, go potty, and weigh. My kids are all on Christmas break, so I am hoping to sleep in a little more this week, and since I am on the west coast....by the time I get up for some of you on the east coast the day is half over...LOL
Anyway, let me know your thoughts on keeping this accountability thread going!

preop/current/goal I would be so happy to see 105 again...I am back down into my 00 size when I was up to a good solid 1....*sigh* I hate getting sick...the first thing that happens is I lose weight and have to eat twice as much to gain it back...however, my doc gave me injectiable phenergan for the nausea, and OMG it works sooooooooooo good...I can actually eat without barfing all the time...I LOVE THAT MAN!!!! LOL

Of course you can skip!! I completely understand Holiday Hell...I may be too skinny now, but I have not forgotten those days when I so did not want to gain, but oh my gosh all of the food was so good, and most of it we only get once a year..so I indulged.
Yanno, I just had a thought...maybe if we made the effort to make some of these good foods once in a while throughout the year, the holidays would not be so hard to keep to a reasonable diet. I dunno just thinkin and kicking around ideas how to make the holidays easier!!
As for me, please don't anyone hate me...but right now I am going through a BOX (yes 24) vanilla Zingers a day....ON TOP of eating my regular good meals and nutrients...and I still have very minimal gain...I swear...this is just creepy wierd...there is definitely something wrong with my body...because by all rights...I should be well over 200 pounds with the way I eat..lol
Hugs to you and here's to weighing after the new year! You can still post under our weigh day post and just not post a weight if you want to ;)
Hugs!!

Laura,
Isn't life crazy? How many times before surgery did you wish there was some magic way that you could eat whatever you wanted and NOT gain weight? And now you can and it's an issue. My grandmother is tiny and has trouble keeping on enough weight to be healthy. During all of my weight struggles she has always said that she could empathize (in reverse), but I never took it very seriously until I had surgery and have encountered many who have the same issues as you.
Good luck with your gain. Just thinking about those zingers gives me a stomach ache! ;)
