Its Whacky Weigh In Wednesday

Good Morning Cali Guys and Gals,

I am the same for over a month now and it is making me nuts.  But my pants are baggy so something is happening.  I think I don't eat enough also like LInda, But I am going to try and up the protein and see what happens.  Well today kids have a 1/2 day and then a preformance tonight for the spring fling.  So I will be taking them all to that.  It should be fun.  Well that is all for me today.  Have a wonderful day.  I have been off the boards for a few days, so give me a few days to catch up with you all.

Happy Hump Day!!! I love Wednesdays as I can see the home stretch!!!

I am happy to report a 5 lb. loss this week!!! I don't mind a stall if I have a recovery like this!! J/K!!

Hope everyone has a great day!!

I'm down 15 lbs. since surgery 3 wks ago to 285.  I'm happy but also a little sad, I wi**** could have been more...

Maureen

Maureen are you kidding me. That is awesome! 15lbs is a lot of weight to lose. Don't worry about the numbers as long as the weight falls off and you feel better. When you start to feel down, just go to the gorcery store and carry around a bag of 15lb potatos and think about what you were carrying around. You'll be amazed at how fast you will lose the weight. There will be periods when you get stalled and you will be sad cause you didn't lose. but keep your chin up. Those days have happen to everyone! Then when you least expect it, the weight will start to fall off again!

Maureen,
That is an awesome loss for three weeks!  You are doing great!

Hi Naomi,

I hope this post finds you doing well...

Thanks for the words of encouragement.  I know and I really am happy about the amount of weight I have lost so far.  It's just that now that my surgery is complete, I want to thin "right now" rather than a year from now.  Patience has never been one of my virtues.  God has been working with me on that one.

Julie,

Thanks for the encouragement.  I really like that bag of potatoes idea.  I might have to try that (at least holding 15 lbs of potatoes...I don't know about carrying that much around).

Maureen

I am down 1 pound and I will take it!! I finally broke that stall that has been driving  me nuts!!! 20 pounds to go!!!
Have a good day all

HUGS

Good morning Janine and Cali - 
Janine, glad to see you on the boards, but do take it easy. 

I'm happy to report that despite my troubles with my thyroid, I'm now down 4 lbs. 

Hope everyone has a great day today.

Hi Barb, how are you?
I am down 3 lbs. FINALLY scale moved. been dealing with 171-173 for 2 months. UGH. hit 169 this a.m. and that makes my bmi 29.9 (overweight) down from 46.4 (extremely obese). Looks like my gallbladder has to come out and I'm hoping when the gb issue gets fixed I can eat better and my weight will start going down. 24 lbs to goal and it's taking forever!!!
