Cleo: good for you! I didn't have to do it at Christmas cause I was at my Mom's but I've done it in the past. whatever works, right?
glad you had a nice holiday and congrats on doing so well!
I've really been fighting food urges the last few days, work is ramping up. I must get a handle on this willpower thing soon. So far so good but it is scary. ugh ugh ugh.

Topic: RE: GOAL
Belinda: no you aren't! I am! lol
seriously though, we have some super losers on this June board and I am proud of them, happy for them and jealous of them, all rolled into one! Lots of them lost on the preop diet.
Me, my preop diet was about 7 months before surgery, I managed to pack back on the pounds I lost so my surgery weight was my starting weight.
I've lost 74 lbs today and don't have an official goal but 70ish more pounds would be a dream come true!
Someone else posted that 50% of excess weight lost at 6 months is a good place to be at. Even if you aren't, if you are building muscle you will get there at the end.
There are a few of us that aren't weight loss superstars and are a bit older than these hot young women but we will all get there in the end!
hang in there, judi
Topic: Who else did this?
I hosted Christmas for my son, DIL, sister and BIL. When they left I loaded them down with leftovers, but I still had the following lurking in the house: a homemade pumpkin pie, half a homemade pecan tart, chocolate chips (leftover from cookies made for son), dried cranberries (for salad**** cream (for that pie), muffins, and homemade cinnamon bread (Sis's contribution to breakfasts). They were way too tempting and since I'm on vacation I couldn't take them to work. So I threw them all in the trash! I think throwing food away is harder than resisting buying it.
Willpower did not come with WLS!

Topic: RE: size 12!
YAY! Amazing, huh? My sister asked me at Christmas whether I could have ever imagined being a size 10 again. It was a total dream for a loooong time!
Topic: RE: GOAL
16 pounds to initial goal. Dr didn't give me a goal weight - said to reach a weight where I feel good first. So I may reassess after reaching my initial goal which gives me a BMI of NORMAL.
