Daily Maintenance Weigh-In - Thursday Aug 1, 2013
Remembering Candy in my thoughts and prayers today as she is one day postop. Hope things are going well Candy.
Weighed in at 118.9 today. Steady as she goes. I know Mom has an interview today. Best wishes on that. Know you will make the decision that is right for you. What else is new with everyone? Any goals for August? My goals are to continue to attend my group Jazzercise class 3 times per week and to maintain my weight under 120 lbs. I am 12 weeks into maintenance and finally getting my bearings-until something changes that is!

Good morning everyone. I've been lurking here for the past couple of months, but today is my first time posting. I reached my personal goal weight of 125 yesterday, so just exploring what maintenance will look like for me. I know what a head trip the scale can be, so want to stay accountable and grounded here with this group. While I rocked the weight loss phase, I expect that maintenance will be much harder to figure out because the 'parameters' are so much broader. Planning to check in most mornings and looking forward to sharing this journey with you.
I'm also looking forward to finally meeting Julia (wantmylife) this evening, who is home from Geneva on her annual vacation. I've never met ANYONE who has had weight loss surgery, let alone VSG. People on these boards have come to mean a lot to me!
125.6

No weight today, but put the jeans on (my skinniest) that I arrived in India wearing 10 days ago and they fit fine, so I'm pretty sure I didn't gain too much.
Sitting in the lounge at the airport, ready to get out of here and on to Paris. 2 days of walking there should be great.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Hi everyone,
Its been a while. I have been reading your posts almost everyday, but not much happening here.
Do you take a probiotic? If so, do you find it helps you keep the weight off? Just curious as it is one of my surgeons weight loss tips.
170.8 today. Its been creeping up lately so I think I will try the probiotics again.
Thinking of Candy too. I hope this surgery will help her pain. My Mom went through the same surgery a couple of years ago. It takes a very long time to recover and get to a place where functioning semi-normally is possible.
