Topic: RE: What to expect month 7...
I'm in the same boat Misty. It's very frustrating especially cuz our goals are so close but seem so far away now that our weight loss has slowed down so drastically. My doctor said it's normal. He said we're probably losing inches even though we're not losing pounds. I need to see the pounds though. I've barely lost 10 pounds since Christmas. UG!!! I keep second guessing myself about what I could be doing wrong. I'm hoping that once the weather gets warmer and I can get outside to walk the weight will start falling off again but that's not for another month at least. I just get bored in front of the tv on the treadmill or eliptical. Just don't forget your protein and liquids (which I have a hard time with both). Anyway, hang in there, hopefully our weight loss will kick up again soon.

Hi Luanne,
Happy Valentines Day! You look great and you look like you're feeling great too. We've come so far in six months. This is going to be the best summer ever!

Topic: diabetes going down
Okay everybody, i have been about to bust since yesterday because my computer is down so i had to wait until today to get to the library so I could tell you all the good news.
I went to the diabetes center yesterday and my A1C is 6.4!!!!!!! If you don't have diabetes you probably have no idea what that means, but believe me it is far better than good. I was more excited about that than the weight loss (which was 7 more lbs, by the way). I am so excited I don't know what to do. They were all excited and happy too. The main reason I finally agreed to the bypass over the lap band was because of the diabetes. My main goal is to get off all these stupid shots. I still have to take 5 a day, but they did decrease the amount. Maybe if I keep a better log, i can go down to 2 the next time.
