Daily Maintenance Weigh In - Monday, Mar07/11

Hi Liz,

I love your hair in your avatar!!  But that is besides the point.

Congrats for being at goal and within your Goal Range... great job.

The complications of life only make us stronger, we have to learn how to deal with them without turning to food, and I think that may be key for many of us.

Whatever is going on in your life, I hope it passes soon and things get simple again.

Hugs,

Cindy

Congrats on your 3.6 loss so far this week Cindy!! You are doing awesome!

Surgery Date - February 8, 2011
Highest Weight - 228 lbs
Surgeon's Goal - 134 lbs
My Goal - 140 lbs lbs
Prefered Range - 132-136 lbs
Yesterday's Weight - 132.6 lbs
Today's Weight -  134.4 lbs
Gain/Loss - +1.8 lbs

Just LOVE the water retention!! I know yesterday was a high sodium day so the gain was expected. Not going to panic, will give it a couple of days and if the scale doesnt start going down then I will take my water pills for a couple of days. I HATE the edema in my foot and ankle. I was really hopeful the WL would help this issue but I guess I'm stuck with it!

Hi Debby,

Thanks so much, I am VERY pleased!

Sorry about the edema in your foot and ankle, that is too bad that weight loss  did not cure that, and that you have to deal with it for the foreseeable future.  Hugs!

You are still within your range, so no worries, hope you don't have to take the water pills, but at least if you do you know it will come right back off again.

Hope you have a nice evening!

Cindy
