One little lb this week. One lb is better than none, right?? Or a gain?? I guess it was a little frustrating to have been down 2 lbs mid-week, then gained a lb a couple days ago. Ah well...gotta keep chugging along! Do you ever wonder if you will reach goal? I'm always afraid to imagine it...seems like a dream. I wonder if I'll reach it...I'm afraid to even think that I could.

Happy Halloween!!!

Wow, I am amazed. AF has arrived, and I actually lost weight instead of gain like I did last month! No rules to this game. lol I was really pleased with this week...4 lbs lost! It kind of broke the trend I was seeing the last couple months, so I'm happy. :) We have a great evening planned with our annual church Fall Festival! Looking forward to it...AND I'm going to take some new pics later today...I'll post those later. :) :) :) Can't wait to see my kids all dressed up! I'm boring...not dressing up. :oP
I MADE IT!!!

I made it to the century club today!! YEAH!!! 240...unbelievable! Hard to believe I was 245 when I got married 14 years ago...such a great feeling!!
So close!!

I only have 2 more pounds to go! Then HELLO century club!! BUT, af is supposed to arrive this coming week, and last time, I gained 2 lbs right at that time...so my fingers are crossed! I am wearing a 22/24 in most things now, and I am SO happy about that! Of course jeans are a different story...they always run small, and they are fitted. Most of my weight is in my stomach, so that's not helpful for fitted waists. It's weird how I've almost lost 100lbs, and I still feel HUGE. Blah. Only positive thoughts, right?? :)
A good week!

Glad that extra couple lbs came back off quickly! Do you ever feel like a week with little or no pounds lost is a week wasted?? I hate that feeling. I can't believe I am down to 245. I think that's what I weighed on my wedding day, back in '93! It's really hard to imagine getting below 200...I haven't been that for around 17 years. I am closing in on 100lbs lost though...5 more lbs!! I suppose technically, I already reached it since I was 349 in January, but I lost and gained between then and my consultation in April. So I'm counting since my consultation. :)
Slow down :(

Well, so goes the craziness. A couple of weeks ago I lost one lb. Last week I lost 4 lbs. This week's weigh in...1 lb. again. UGH! Stupid AF brought on an extra 2 lbs. which took me 3 days to lose again. Not enough time to really lose much more before weigh in today. I am still doing well though...I just hope it picks up a little more! :)

No stalls allowed!

Well, I only lost one lb this week. Possibly the beggining of a stall? I have been at 254 for 6 days now. No fun!! Better get my booty in gear. Still having too much trouble with meat, and I don't like fish. Need to up my protein! Trying to eat cheese, beans, pb, and such to help. I hope the stall doesn't last too long! Three months out seems to be the magic time for a stall for most people, so I'm hoping things will pick up again SOON! :)
Halfway!!
Sep 11, 2006
I made it halfway today!! 80lbs lost, 80lbs to go to my personal goal!! Happy, happy day! I took this pic yesterday...I actually wore this dress to church, then realized how droopy and huge it looked AFTER I got home and looked at the pics!!
10 weeks post op!
Sep 01, 2006
Sorry I am late updating!! I think about it, then I forget. lol I am 10 weeks out now, and I am down to 265!! I am so amazed. I had a month of slow loss, but the last few weeks it has picked up! So I am down 75 lbs since my consultation. I am very happy about that!! I think my weight loss picked up at 7 weeks out because that is when I was really able to eat more. I've been eating a lot of baked potatoes...they go down really well. I haven't been eating too much meat, since I really struggle with it. The fear of the pain when meat won't go down well is enough to make me think twice about eating it! Plus it has become such a chore. Takes FOREVER to chew meat enough. Then I just get tired after a few bites and quit eating. So while my weight loss has picked up, I haven't been eating much protein. I have been using my protein shakes to supplement. BTW...someone on the main forum suggested putting General Foods International SF coffee in her shake, and OMW, it is SOOO good!! I can't taste the protein at all! Definitely a must for breakfast now! :) I'm a little frustrated that I started out a 32/34, and after 75 lbs, I'm only a 28/30. It seems I should be smaller than that!! Hoping sizes start going down more with my weight. :oP Well, that's all I have to say for now...hopefully I won't wait as long to update again!!
