Buggies.. how are you doing???

Good Morning, June Bugs and everyone else...  

I know I've been a bit absent lately, but I'm doing ok, working on getting my ducks all in the pond as my Grandma would say!

But..  I have been keeping up with my bugs, this last fill that I didn't get recorded (still grumbling on my lack of memory on that one!) has finally added some sweet restriction and I now feel realized!!  

My bug report for the week:   I lost 4 pounds, I made it to my goal of three classes at the Y... 

I don't know if I thank ya'll enough for playing with me in the challenges, with only a three year old in the house, this a great way for me to stay accountable, so thank you! 

So...   next Bug Report.....

Well, Good morning sunshine!! As of today I have lost 13
bugs(that didn't sound very good). Anyhoo that is from the day of surgery, I am not having to do anything ,I just can't eat yet. I'm happy !!!!

Sounds GREAT!!  Well apart from the not eating..  you are staying hydrated right??? 

Will check on you in the next couple of days to get on your and Braxton's social calendar, Connor wants to go to the dinosaur zoo and to Africa, so I'm thinking maybe the end of next week if you are up to it??? 

I'm so glad you are happy, you had a LONG road, but wasn't it all worth it!!

I've lost 4 pounds too.  I am so dissapointed that my weight loss has stalled.once again.  I can't figure out what it is.  I promise I am doing the righ things.  I don't want to wine about it, but this is getting a little depressing. 

I know this surgery works and I have read that stalls happen and we just have to wait to get over the hump, but I am so afraid that I am getting to the end of my honeymoon period sooner than I expected. 

If there are any veterans out there who could share their experience with this, I would really appreciate it.  

My brain is telling me to let it go and just move on, but I don't want to stop losing before it is time

I am not a veteran and I've not had RNY, but I have had stalls...  I went for what seemed like forever not loosing anything, and I contacted my nutritionst.  With her help, I changed a few things, and I kicked the stall.  While I don't have huge numbers I am holding steady at an average of 1 - 2 pounds per week.

It is kind of like tha****ched pot...  that will never boil...  sometimes we monitor and sabatoge ourselves, relax, contact your nut, and know that what you are doing is going to work, and it will!

Hello--Buggy-check in....

Let's see..I started the challenge at 229 & my goal was to rip the legs off of 15 buggies (aka get to 214 pounds)...I weighed in this a.m. at 218, so I have lost 11 pounds in June & still have four pounds to go this month to get to my June goal....I will keep chuggin' away.

Since I broke my foot/got bronchitis/have some flesh eating disease, etc. this month(excuses, excuses, I know......lol) I have not done four Y classes each week (I did do one today!!), but am working out 4-6 times per week.

My third goal was to go from the size 18 pants I was wearing at the beginning of June to a size 14 before we leave for our Disney trip on June 29th.....well, I am definitely out of 18s & out of those 16s & bought 14s this past week.....they are a little tight when I sit down, but w/in a week or so they will fit fine.....size 12s here I come....

So....4 more pounds, pants a little looser & continue my workouts.....that's what I have left this month....buzz, buzz, buzz...xo, Micheala.

Fantastic!!!  Well aside from the flesh eating disease, bronchitis, strep, and a broken foot..  You sound like you are doing wonderful!! 

Seriously get better before Disney...   and keep up the amazing work! 

I tell ya, Tim needs to re-do the song, "One Hot Momma," and use you as his video babe!!

My goal for June was 15 Bugs.   I have lost 8 of those bugs so I think I am right on track.   When I loose all 15 this month and the 15 next month I will be under 300 pounds and that has not happened in years... LOL  One of my goals was to be under 300 pounds by my birthday (8/17) so I am really hoping that happens.   When I reach 299 that will put me at 181 pounds lost and only 69 from goal.   I think I rambled here but.. oh well.. bottom line 8 bugs down 7 to go.  

RAMBLE on...  woohoo..   I think we will all be cheering you on for your goal of 299 by Aug 17th!!  How exciting!

8 bugs..  and it is the middle of the month..  i think you are well on track for you goal this month!!!!

WOOOHOOOO

I know you are right and I SOOOO appreciate your reminding me.  I started not to even post the comment, because I know what you are saying is right. 

I hate whiners.  I don't want to be one of them.   

I know it will happen in time.   I have NEVER been the patient person that I should be.  Maybe this is a test of my patience skills.  (LOL).   It is working!
