Surgery Date - 12/31/09
Highest (known) weight - 211
Today - 128.6
BMI - 22.6
Goal - 125ish, not above 130
Ate pretty healthy today, only 2 small indiscretions.
Need to work on H2O, but I usually catch up in the evening with lots of hot tea.
Vitamins - check
Exercise - can only fit that in on Tues/Thurs
(I am too lazy to use the dreaded treadmill next to me ~ shameful, eh? Besides it really triggers my calcified tendonitis... so there.)
I'm going to be a big girl and post this schizz. I feel kind of bad whining..because I honestly never thought I'd even get here, but now I'm a nervous nelly and terrified of putting it all back on...and I refuse to buy bigger clothes. Plus I think I'm in the redistributing phase and I just can't knock this belly...again I told myself I wouldn't be upset about the skin, but oh it bothers me so.
I hope that along with the accountability that I can start accepting.
It's hard that all the victories and constant decline of the scale that ruled my mood are gone.
Now, it's just me. People seem to have forgotten that I was quite the chunk (and that's OK) the attention was uncomfortable to me. Now the scale is up and down all day everyday, it is my reality check. I could probably eat that entire steak and shake burger now, but I try really hard to give it away after I've inhaled over half of it, because, mentally I hate that I could fit it in now. I get giddy when I'm uncomfortably full, I really miss the STOP or I'm gonna kill you it use to say to me.
Hopefully in another year from now, I will have settled and will feel comfortable in my skin (and excess skin) and eating "normal" will not be an issue.
I'm ready to find my happy place.

Surgery Date - July 2009 Highest Weight - 264 lbs
Surgeon's Goal - 150 lbs
My Goal 135 lbs Yesterday's Weight - 149.4 Today's Weight - 149.4 Gain/Loss - 0
I will be tracking my calories on MyNet Diary and trying to stay within my allotment of 1100 calories....70 grams protein most important daily goal, along with my water.....
It's amazing even with eating so much less than before how much I can still underestimate my portions......and end up nibbling my way past 1100 calories.......Yikes!
