Hey All
Sorry so late on my post but just got a chance to go weigh at the gym this morning. Had another weight gain this week
My answer to the question this week is...... I believe I would be content at 150 lbs. My initial goal I had set for myself was 170 but never have made it there. The lowest I got to (I think) was 179 but now I am going the other way so probably definately won't ever make it there.

GO COLTS!!!!
I really need to start posting here.....
highest weight: 251
original goal weight: 130
lowest weight: 119
last week: 129
current week: 133
It is period week for me but I've got to get back below 130. That's where I'm happy. Would love to be 125. I looked sick when I was 119.

HAH! I love being a mommy though.. and her daddy is just bonkers over her.
I threatened Ray I was taking two Tylenol PMs (which means I'm comatose and she's all his).

When I first had surgery I was too afraid of failure to set a number goal and just concentrated on following the rules and sticking with the program to make good, lifelong changes. They haven't all stuck and I have to get back to them because along the way of losing I adopted a goal of 130 and feel like such a failure now for not being there.
But realistically, my body seems happiest around 140-143 and getting below 140 is harder work than I want to do. Anything over 143 puts me in a panic because that was my surgeon's goal weight and I have been rather prideful of being at 100% weight loss status. So the last few weeks having blown past that are hard for me and feel very shameful. Gotta quit focusing on the negative and just concentrate on what I know I NEED to do. Put down the sugar free stuff and pick up the water bottle. Already getting more panicky because the pms is starting in again and the chocolate is calling my name louder each day. Gotta bake more chocolate bran muffins...
have to go to bed, big family stress today and another early day again tomorrow.

Oooh, give Caitlin a snuggle for me!
Can't do the Tylenol PM...it leaves me groggy for a full day. Already have a white noise machine to try to drown out dh's snoring.
Gonna have to have half an ambien tonight...family stress stuff going on and I will never be able to shut down otherwise. :(

So, down 2-3 lbs. Yeah! Go away baby weight!
And speaking of baby weight, Caitlin is finally gaining. She's now 8.4 lbs, as of today. She'll be three weeks on Friday.

But have you also tried OTC Tylenol PM? One tab makes me sleepy, 2 make me comatose. And how about a white noise machine?
Okay, Caitlin screaming, got to change and feed her!

But when I was still losing past 165, I liked my new slef better each week. I got down to 139, I thought, but then I bought a new scale and it showed 143. I am very happy at 143 to 145 and I don't want to ever go up from there. I am scared every day as I watch a few people I know gain weight and they are a year or so farther out than me. It gets easier to eat each day, but I am determined to stay in control, something I never felt I could do before surgery. I keep telling myself that NOTHING TASTES BETTER THAN SKINNY FEELS! I want to be a size 4-6 forever, and sometimes I am glad I am old so I won't have to fight as long as others.
