Never give up

So as far as I am concerned, this is just weird.  I started Monday at 129.  This morning I was 124.  I have lost a pound a day and I have absolutely no idea why.  I have done nothing different than I have been doing for the past however many months.  I have lost more weight this week than I did in January.

So Sue and Stacey, and everyone else who is thinking they are done, don't stop.  All I have done is to keep on keeping on.  Follow the plan.  Yeah, maybe I will bounce back which is pretty typical of me for now, but 124.4 today after 125.0 yesterday and 127 the day before is pretty fricken amazing for being 9+ months out.

And for the first time since I got married 38 yrs ago, I am at a normal BMI. 

I totally concur!  I thought I was done back in April...the scale was at a dead stand-still, no matter what I did.  BUT, since then I've lost almost 10 more pounds....granted it's half a pound at a time but it all adds up...plus I went down another size!  You are so right....DON'T give up!

Oh yea....congratulations on the NORMAL BMI!!!!!
That's HUGE!

Great message Price!  This is one crazy journey.  Just when you think you have it all figured out,  something changes.  Congrats on hitting that normal BMI!  Cindy

First- congrats!  Isn't odd---we get discouraged easily and think our bodies are settled---but there is wiggle room forever.  I can say I have not lost as much as I had hoped with my revision (about 26 pounds since March) but...it definitely feels so much better and I am know I am not done.  My original surgery--they told me it was possible the whole way to 18-24 months, and to expect stand stills...even long ones.  So---I am hoping and working to prove to my surgeon (revision) that the point was not only to stop the gain and cease that process...but to get me down where I was.  almost 30 pounds brings me to where all the 2nd baby weight and inactivity from my back surgery and my 3 stomachs had lead me...now the work begins...get to where I was before my fist kiddo...and toward a healthy normal BMI.  I am 5'8 or so (back surgery may have decrease me from almost 5'9) so I know I will not be 150 pounds..but I am okay with just being normal and healthy.  Don't look for the hoary I'm a 2 post from me. LOL. 

Keep working those WL skills Price and you will be amazed especially if you are only 10 months or so...you got another year even as a lightweight!  But I suspect if you get much lighter we will be looking for you in the breeze.

That is so good to hear.  I have been stuck at 133lbs, sometimes bouncing up to 135 and back, so I have been worried that maybe this is it!  I will be at 9 months on July 4th and I would really like to get down to my goal of 125lbs sometime this summer.  You have given me hope that this can happen.  I will just stick with my program and see what happens!

I truly hope this is true for me, I have been so discouraged lately and have no clue what else to do. I have cut ALL carbs except healthy ones and all sugars. I have been so good with my eating and excercising. I hope it really is true. Although I am officially at 129 now. Cross your fingers that I make it to my goal by my year mark....

Wow that is amazing! Good job.
