Don't you just love...

When the scales finally move!!!!
For 2 weeks, I did not have any weight loss. But today I'm down 3 pounds. I know we all go through this and it can be very frustrating. But boy, it feels good when they finally move.

My 6 month sugervisary is Tuesday and I wanted to be below 200. I don't think that is going to happen, but I'm so close I can taste it.

Just wanted to share a little.

Hey Penny I think you can try to increase your excersise and when I say excersise I mean cardio and you would not believe how much that really helps in losing weight.

Penny, I know how frustrating it is when the scale won't move or tends to go up instead of down.  Congratulations on loosing 3 more pounds.  

I cant wait until I get below 200 either,  but I still have over 20 pounds to go....

Someday............

At first when I would go through these short "stalls" it was very frustrating. After a while, I started to realize that it was normal and would look forward to the big "loss". It amazes me how this all works.

Keep up the good work. Is the realize band the same as Lapband?

Penny

Yes, the Realize band is a brand name of a lap band that has not been available too awful long. it was the same price but the "port" is in front instead of on the side.

You are so right. I need to increase my exercise. My nutritionist sorta scolded me on this last week. I am walking 3 days per week, but she said I should be exercising 5-6 days per week. I'm going to do better.

Thanks, Penny

199 is SO close!  :)  :)  :)  YEAY!

It is soooo close. I have not really been this excited to reach a certain "goal". I can't wait until I get to post about reaching 199.

Congrats, Penny -- it sure feels good when that scale starts moving again, doesn't it?  I am sure you have already done this, but just in case:  Measure yourself.  During the times when the weightloss slows, measure yourself.  You will be pleasantly surprised!  :)

You know, I haven't measured lately. For the first 4 months I measured faithfully on my sugervisary. But I forgot to do it on month 5. I will measure on Tuesday and write it down in my journal. I have noticed my clothes are a little more loose.

I still have not done the cottage cheese test. I think I will do that Tuesday also.

Thanks, Penny
