04/10 Monday Weigh In

I feel like I'm holding all the water of the Hoover Dam (yes, I have my period) .... Fortunately the scale did show a loss. Hopefully by the end of my period it will be a bigger loss!!! Pre-Op Weight: 272 Last Weeks Weight: 222 This Weeks Weight: 220 Another 2 lbs lost for a total of 52 lbs gone 4evah! How did everyone else do this week? Some of you were so close to that 50 lb marker last week ..... I've been pulling for you - I know you did it! Susan

Hi Susan~ Still no face I was a very good girl this week. I made a commitment not to step on the scale until this morning and I did it! Day of Surgery: 321 Last week: 269 Today: 264 Last week's loss: 5 Total: 57 (I hope to break 60 next week!!!) Dawn

Hi Susan; Well this week has been slow, but I am not discourged. I have been having female problems anyway (next Tuesday I am having a hsyti, so ...) Pre-op 307 Day of surgury 288 Last week 240 This week 237 Total lost gone forever is 70lbs. Have a nice day. Karen

I was sick allllll last week. I didn't even eat for about 2 1/2 days, I was just drinking lots of fluids. I didn't want the weight to come off that way, but hey.....it came off! Day of surgery: 283 Last week: 235 Today:231 Finally I hit the 50 lb. mark! Now I just want to be in the 220's.....for some odd reason. I know I'm smaller because people keep telling me, but for some reason I just don't feel like I've lost that much but I think it's supposed to be that way. And I have to admit I was on the scale alot this week so no scale until next Monday! Have a great day everyone. April

Pre-Op: 290 Last Week's Weight: 240.5 This Week's Weight: 240.5 Loss this week: 0 Cumulative loss: 49.5lbs (grrrrrrrrrr) So. In 3 weeks, I have lost 1.5lbs. I have been working out and to say I have been active is quite the understatement. I have been getting my protein in. Fluids...well, I can always improve but I have been that way since surgery. I weigh every day. Over the course of the week, I lost a couple of lbs...then gradually "found" them again. It's not that time of the month...I just finished that. My fat analyzer scale says my BMI is the same. I don't get it. I'm concerned because this weight seems to be where my body usually stops losing and refuses to go any lower. I was thinking last week, well it was period time so that's why I lost only 1.5 lbs and I was thinking this week, it would start coming off again. WRONGO! I am far from pleased this morning. Chele

Chele: Don't fret! I was like that the last 2 weeks. So I decided to concentrate on the water! And it worked!! I lost 4 lbs this week...YAY! You can do it too! Just carry the water everywhere with you and make sure you get 8 cups in per day. Good luck! Diana

When did you change your screen name???? I thought you were just away from the boards taking care of the hubby How's he doing by the way. Anyway, here's mine: Pre-Op Weight: 265 This week: 230 Total lost: 35 I'm not complaining much but I've been at 230 for nearly 2 weeks now. So I'm waiting for some movement on the scale. Roni
