Holly,
I started day one on Sunday and lasted until about 3 pm when the family decided they wanted Taco Bell. Since Taco Bell has no choices that are liquid only I ate the insides of a Burrito Supreme.
I decided that I really just need to get back to the basics of not drinking with my meals and eating that small 1/4 to 1/2 cup portion and continue the exercise and drink the water!

Hello ladies-
I made REALLY bad choices this week- I mean eating stuff I ate prior to surgery bad- really scared my self... looked up the 5 day pouch test- tried it yesterday and only made it a few hours- am trying again today... we'll see...
Weighed in at 129 today- which is a miracle- but I didn't exercise more than twice this week- so I'm sure I'm losing muscle cuz this has been my 3rd week of almost zilcho exercise. I'm finally finished with all the meds- no more steroids- YEAH!!! Now if my appetite would just go back to normal. I am sooo afraid of gaining my weight back. I'm only up a few pounds- but my eating scares the heck out of me.
I have always been a pear shape- but when I gain weight back now (more so over Christmas) it goes straight to my stomach. Anyone else notice this?
Have agood week!!!

Good Morning Ladies,
Some of last week's gain came off. At least I'm back to my regular range even if it is 20 pounds from my goal weight
SW: 247
LW: 163
CW: 159
Loss of 4 pounds this week. Exercised four out of seven days.

My lower back hurts quite frequently making it hard to sleep longer than 6 hours or so. I'm not sure the cause. I think it will improve with more exercise and strengthening it. If you are having continious, dull pain it could be constipation. Sorry your hurting.

Today's weight is 143lbs... Last week was a 145lbs... Highest is 292... I have officially lost more than I weigh!!! That is so weird to think that.

Hey there FRIENDS!!!
No new losses or gains to speak of just trying to keep a steady weight. We moved into our new house on Valentine's 
so we are still trying to get settled in. I had a procedure Friday, so that took some of my productivity away as well. So much to do and so little time 
Here are my stats
HW 242
LW (can't recall when I weighed in last but maybe 130?)
CW 127
BMI 21.1 (wow)
Of course I do NOT need to lose any more weight, so I am doing my best to maintain and will try to gain some after all this medical drama is out of the way. I had SEVERE stomach cramping yesterday after lunch, so I am VERY ready to get to the bottom of that. I follow up with the gastro today over all the tests he has run, but in addition to the other stuff they found in my endoscopy we do know there are some "abnormalities consistant with my symptoms" and he had me go in for more tests last week so hopefully we'll find out today exactly what that means.
I will update as we know more. Thanks again everyone for your love and support. The good in my life FAR outweighs the bad, so no matter what trials I face, NOTHING will steal my joy. I am blessed... and soon, either by miracle or the hands of one or a couple of skilled surgeons I will be healed too!!!!
