Hola Shar and the A-Team!
I am holding my own here at 188. I need to figure out a way of exercise that I like and WANT to do. I've just never been an exerciser.
Nothing much new here, except nursing my older (8) cat to health after we got a new kitten that gave him some odd allergic reaction on his face (possibly something bacterial, it responded well to antibiotics) and then the kitten has had chronic diarrhea since we got her, so many vet trips and vet bills to deal with this month. I love cats, really, but this month, not so much :)
Work is work and i won't mention the odd warm weather we are having, I know so many of you are in the grips of a crazy cold winter.
Hugs to all and I hope everyone has a great week!

Hi everyone,
Thanks Shar for keeping the weekly weigh ins going,
I am down to 169 this morning I go up down and seems to be hovering btwn 169 and 170 .
Recovering from surgery has been real hard as I am just real quessy with my stomach and sensative to eating food but does not budge the scale much LOL
My body is just off kilt had a period for 8 days now and that plays havoic on my band and now surgery added it mixture it is just a bear of a week. I am really moody and my family and probally everyone around me is getting tired of me whinning LOL Oh well they will get over it just as soon as I feel human again.
I do not regret having the TT just I hate having to deal with the way I feel after words. The effects of anaestheia is really hard on me and Now I am debating about the boob job.I just need to heal and rethink,
Having surgery so close together is hard on most people and I just need to recover and focus on healing not weight loss, weight gain or next surgery.
I miss the gym and the work outs how it made me feel calm.
I am so greatful for Our A team, Thanks for being here when I WAS GOING INSANE ..
Warm hugs
Lisa

Good Morning Everyone,
I have not posted in so long but I am always here reading. I have had nothing new to report in such a long time until now. I have been stalled for probably 6 months or better. But I have had a new stress in my life (a good one, if that is possible) and my appetiate has been shot. I have also started to increase my excercise. So I am happy to report a 5 lb loss this week. I am now at a new low of 160lb. I hope this progress continues.
Highest: 347
Today: 160

Good Morning A-Team. Not much going on here either. Just maintaining. Shar, I know what you mean about freezing. It isn't that cold in Vegas, but I freeze all the time. I am looking forward to summer and hot weather.

Hi A Team!
Well my weight shot up last week, 4lbs. Interesting, since I cannot eat enought to gain almost a pound a day. I thought it would stop and go back but it hasn't. I am still up 3 lbs.
I thought it might have been due to not being able to exercise for a couple weeks. So, I have been riding 2 horses a day for the last 7 days. Figure it will kick in sooner or later.
Funny, how when I saw 158lbs on the way down it seemed so little. Now that I am up back up to it this 3 lbs makes me feel FAT. How goofy is that?
I can only keep on making good choices. I can only keep up my exercise. The weight will come back off when it's damn good and ready I guess!
We have had sunshine this last week and my mood has been so much better being outside and soaking up the sun. If this had happened a few weeks ago I would have gone off the deep end.....

Good morning Shar & A-Team 
I can't imagine living anywhere that it gets so cold. I HATE to be cold!! It's in the 80's here in the daytime and around the 60's at night. THAT is cold enough for me! I'm a sissy!
I'm at the lower end of my bouncing scale today--174. It'll jump up again as the week progresses. It seems I lose on my days off and gain on my workdays. Wowww,, just occured to me, if I could take an extended vacation, maybe I could reach GOAL!!

Good morning everyone. Not much is new here. We are still in a deep freeze. Now that I have lost 155 pounds, I have no insulation. I wear layers of clothes and I still shiver. But, I'd rather freeze than still be waddling. I hope everyone is well and checks in today. Dee,,,where are you? How did the Dr's appt. go?

I know w/o weight loss surgery I would never be where I am today, I know I have a true metabolic disorder and weigh****ches would never work because 1200 calories was Alot of calories for me and I would follow weigh****chers diet and I would just gain, I finally hit my metabolic shift in june where I could eat more calories and not gain, I have read alot about metabolic shift and true morbid obese people have the disease but so little is written or understood about the disorder, I had dietician that knew the disorder very well and showed me it was not me really failing it was my body working to efficent to prevent fammine, I guess the up side of having this we could be in world fammine and I would survive Where is my naturally skinny counter family friends would die off. I know how to efficently store food in my body.
I have skinny sisters and thin mom and skinny dad and all were so tiny short and petite and there came me the be BIG bouncing baby of family. My brother is heavy but not as heavy as I was but I am taller than everyone , I kinda felt like the freck of nature. I mean my sister have rail thin kids and mine are heavy, I use to think I was switched at birth because why was I so huge compared to my family?Anyone ever felt this? I am finally arrived to where destination where I am almost at goal I know most RNY met this about a year ago but it is my season dealing with issues of excepting my new body, I guess I am the late bloomer of the A team LOL.
But today I am thinner then the rest of my sisters a victory for me I got to so tired of everywhere telling me how to lose weight. I was the butt of the fat jokes, I was told they would pay me 1000 dollars if i lost weight hmmmmmmmm I should collect that from my sister LOL Wonder if she remembers saying that?
I have so much pain associated with obesity and I know I am not alone the guilt the shame the embaressment, I have to deal with that and have to really truely connect to my body and I am having such a hard time doing that, I still feel like I am 295 lbs I am so not connected to my body, I kinda feel like what a annorexic feels like I suppose I look in the mirror and I see this huge morbid obese woman looking back at me. I keep hoping I will see the new woman I have become and finally embrace the new thin me, Pam we all took that leap and you are so right this was the only chance we had to lose weight was WLS.
