Does this post count for Pre-Op's?  I have been trying to cut down on all my carbs and sweets and lost 6 pounds from the 24th of August to my dr appt. I had yesterday.  That makes it a total of 16 pounds since I started this whole thing back in July... I guess that isnt too bad.... 16 pounds less that I was and 16 pounds closer to where I wanna be.

Of COURSE pre-op counts . . . you're part of the party now . . . you're living the life . . . you post your losses with pride!  We'll count them!

Good Morning Cali Peeps,

I just had to check my weight tracker on my profile to figure out my weight loss.  Well you can put me down for 7lbs.  Don't ask, I don't know how this happened but I like it.

I went to buy me some shirts last night because my old shirts are starting to hang.  I thought ok, lets try the next size down 26/28.  HA HA HA,  the lady in the store said "DO NOT BUY THAT SIZE, IT IS TOOOOOO BIG".  So, I bought 22/24.  OMG, it has been forever since I wore this size.  After dressing I checked with my kids to make sure I looked ok.  My son said:  "looking good mama", my daughter said:  "have you seen yourself in a full length mirror"?  She then said: "wow mom, you are looking great and you even have curves showing now".  LOL  I told her I have always had curves, they were just hiding.  I know there is still plenty of stomach that has to go away, but I will take every inch and every pound no matter how small/great.

Wishing you all a good day.  Try and stay cool.

Ughhhh...I hate this day! LOL

hey, all....i'm not in a good routine yet with school having started last week...i'm not finding the time to do everything that i need to do, either before i leave in the morning (I get up at 430!), or in the afternoon.

Fortunately, i can get on this site at work (most things, like my email) are blocked, so, i'll try to make a habit of checking in at lunch time.

No weight loss and possibly no gain, but i don't weigh regularly anymore. Don't want the scale ruling my life, I suppose... as long as the same clothes are fitting, I'm good!

I have a great crop of kids, and it's going to be a really good year.

That's about it for me...nothing big... oh, Diane, I hope your AC gets fixed! that's no fun to be so hot that you can't sleep....

xoxo

Hey Folks..

Put me down for minus 7.4 lbs.  Yay!  However, Im not doing so well in the eating dept.  Im supposed to be able to eat anything now.. but I can't.  Last night I couldn't hold anything down.. barfed 3 times before I just gave up.  Not so much fun!

Im certainly recognizing my head games... when upset i want to eat.. go looking for food but then determine I'll get sick and not worth it.  It's kinda messing with me at the moment.  Now Im kinda scared to try anything.   Sad thing is also that when i do try food I've wanted to try, it doesn't even taste good.  It's kinda upsetting ha ha.

Anyways.. Have a good day!  Im miserable hot and my car AC went out this week so I can't even enjoy my car anymore :(

hugs to all,

Jackie

Ahhhh...Jakie Honey you need not to be so hard on yourself, you are only 2 month or so out, I would be very careful with what I eat at this stage of the game. You are still a newbie of sorts. And I know it sucks to "barf !!! I did twice last night cause I ate way to fast!!! And to much as well!! I should know better but it will always be this way and I am still learning that I can't scarf as I once did.  Check and make sure you are eating slowly!! And chewing really really well and watch for fat and sugar all these things can contribute to vomiting.
Hang in there sweetie, you are doing a great job.

Afternoon Chris and Cali gang
Almost talked myself out of reporting in...not a happy camper at all   First time since I started this journey back in Oct 08 I am reporting a gain....only 1lb but it definitely is not the direction I want to be going in.  Even journaling hasn't helped...even if I have listed every 'munch' I partoke of...munching out of anger in general...and stress coming out of work....hopefully this 3 day weekend will help.

Well, lunch is over, time to get back to the grindstone. I haven't been around much this past week but I am thinking of all of you! I do want to wish Chris a fantastic WALK in Seattle....and enjoy the experience, even if you can't do the full walk...you are just amazing!
