Tuesday 911, 611, 411 - BOTT

Hi BOTTers,

The good news is that I stayed on track for my birthday!  The best gift of all!!  We did a day get-away so it was unstructured time and eating out but I did it!!  I packed some snacks just in case but I didn't need them.  It would be easy to rationalize indulging since it was my birthday but I wanted to give myself the best gift of all - staying on track!

That's my 411 - what is yours??

BOTT POWER!!

Hi Cathy,

I'm new to BOTT. I had my bypass in May 2005 and have maintained a 100 lb weight loss. I Jazzercise 5-7 days / week (at least I did before my foot surgery in Feb- I've had to revise my workouts to chair workouts). I was recently sick with bronchitis and was on prednisone for 2 weeks - I gained 8 lbs!!!! I still need to lose about 50 lbs. It's incredible to me that I lost the 100 lbs in the first 6 months after surgery and really have lost nothing since then. I do have hypothyroidism and take 125 mcg of Levothroxine.

I joined BOTT to get support and inspiration. That's my 411

Hello Sue,

Welcome.  I am in a similar boat as you.  I never reached my goal weight and gained 80 for various reasons listed on my blog.  good luck to you.  So far I just reconnected with OH.com this month and I have lost 10 pounds so far.  I had lost 14 but gained 4.  I am cool with  that because my goal for the month was 8 pounds.  We can do it!  KIT.
