Goodmorning everyone! I hope you all had a great holiday!
Mine was great. I had to work Christmas eve and Day, but I had a 3 day weekend off after that and my grandsons came to stay with us.
I am having a problem though. I am eating and eating and some of the stuff I am eating is junk and sweets but I am still losing weight. What am I going to do to make it stop??? At this rate, there will be no more Cindy at next years weigh in...........lol
I am down another pound from last weigh in
Last weigh in I was 127.5 and today I am 126.5!
I even ate pumpkin pie with whip cream on it yesterday!!!!
If anyone has any ideas on making the weight loss stop, please let me know.
Total weight loss to date is 149.5
Have a great week.
Cindy :)

Topic: Sunday Weigh In

Good morning everyone. I sure can't wait for the holidays to be over. I find myself constantly grazing while at work. I am so scared....it seems like my hunger never ends and my restriction seems to have totally disappeared. I continue to fluctuate between 190 and 193. At this point, I wish I had the lap band so I could keep getting fills. I have pledged to myself to totally get back on plan after the holidays, but I am trying harder to get on plan now. I hope you are all doing well and I wish we could hear from everyone today.

And how was your week?

Shar

155 pounds of fat gone (hopefully for ever)

Topic: RE: it's on the move

It feels so good doesn't ? I 2 years out and struggles with getting think this is the exciting times for bansters we are crossing the finishing line or is in close view. I know our journey is slow I was talking to fellow banster who was struggling with candy addiction and said she cannot stop and said if she only ate what she was she would be farther along, I told her candy is just a symptom of what is eating at you. I said the band has not failed nor you u just need to work threw it, I said we all struggle from time to time but she said she has not been tos upport and i said studies shows the more support u have the better u do and i told her about OH I said my A team has been here when I was ready to give up, So glad your scale is on the move again, Congradulations !!! I am so proud of you wow u have lost over 100 pounds that is amazing. Keep up the good work and look foward to seeing u each more here, We need everyone more than ever,

I mean it felt good to be able to have pants to floor just did not expect it out in public LOL, I think having this tummy tuck has changed my life, I am so glad I had it Just felt I am so close to goal and the thin woman inside is starting to show. I feel balanced.

First of I want to wish each and everyone on our A team Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas
I never thought this would happen to me but it did there I was in the mall parking Christmas eve about 5 and there I was walking into sears and all of a sudden I felt a cool breeze btwn my legs and I looked down and my pants were down to my ankles, I flashed the holiday shoppers I had bloomers on and of couse my drainage tubes showing, My family started to laugh and the people all around me laughing, Most embaressing weight loss moment, I said I guess I really need to buy some clothes, I guess it hit me Wow I am not as big as once thought in fact my Doc told me I do not want to hear from you are fat you are slighty over weight, He said infact we have the same BMI. Today I tried on size med pants and they fit perfectly . I never thought I would wear a size med in my life time again. Last time I wore a Medium was in jr high. My doc gave me a new goal weight of 140 He said I am very tiny so that should be a good weight for here I am thinking 155 was a good goal weight.
Anyone have a embarressing weight loss moment?
Keep warm everyone
Lisa

Hi in Louisville - you live near me. I live in Knoville. I have some of the same standard suggestions but they are tried and true and really do work. I journal my food 80% of the time on sparkpeople.com - it really holds me accountable and is helping me to re-learn how to manage my food daily. I haven't log my food in a couple of weeks and have eaten want I have wanted to within reason and am celebrating b/c I haven't gained any weight. I attribute this to being very conscious of what I'm eating and really knowing how many calories I"m getting. I also try and get all my water in daily, take my vitamins, don't drink with my meal or 1 hour after...all the things they teach us. To help myself with grazing, I try and eat small meals 5 times a day. Now, I haven't been as faithful to that over the past couple of weeks but I've been trying. My Dr.'s office considers a 10 pound gain as the "danger zone" and recommends an office visit immediately if there's a gain. Are you doing OK? Do you need some more help? :)

Peace!
