Its Wacky Weigh-In Wednesday Gang!

Morning all . . . and its a Wonderful Wednesday for sure!

We have lots of new people on the boards, so just a "FYI" . .. on Wednesdays we post our weight changes from the previous Wednesday . . . down, up, even . . . it's all good.  NSVs are also always welcome!  Our goal for the year was to lose a TON of weight (collectively) . . .which we surpassed the end of July - so now we are aiming to hit 3,000 for the year!  So please post your numbers . . . (not your weight - just your weight change) to help us out!  Then on Thursdays, we post the week's results!

With that being said, I think I'm down 1 lb today . . . I have to get my chart working because with my memory I can't remember from one week to the next!  However . . . I am NOT SMOKING :D  (there are some who will find that hard to believe I think).

I went to the dr yesterday for my hands, and finally have case numbers, etc. and can be scheduled for the "legalized" torture test as I call it . . . "can you feel this" is much worse than Verison's "can you hear me now" ad nausium . . . but then they can decide what will go on from there - and I have lighter weight splints to wear on my hands during the day now . . . ugh . .. again in lovely basic black . . .

OK . . . off to tend my farms this morning . .. everyone have a GREAT day!

Hugs
Chris

Good morning Chris and Cali,

Well I am down 1 pound.  I have really slowed for my weight loss, guess I have to turn up the exercise.  I track my caloric intake on daily plate so I know that is good.

Today DH and Vanessa are coming to stay with me-yeah!  It gets a little lonesome at night.  Hope you have a nice day.

Good morning Chris and everyone,

I am down 2 pounds.  I started the 5dpt on Monday and I am not doing it to lose weight, but to get back to basics.  It is pretty amazing how much tighter you pouch feels when on the 5dpt.  I don't feel bloated at all.

Today is just work.

Well, I better get back to work...hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

good morning Cali,

today brings nothing spectacular, just meetings all day.  boooooooooooo!!! 

I don't weigh myself every week, instead I do it every other week.  So since my last weigh in, I've lost 8lbs.  So, whether you want to count it as 4lbs, or 8lbs, is up to you.  I don't want the weight back, you can do what you want with it....lol. 

have a great day everyone!!!

Good Morning Miss Chris and all of Cal,

Wish I had some great news, but I can't get on the scale.  I did right after I got home and I had gained 13 lbs in 9 days, but I know that it is all water weight.  There isn't anything that I ate at the hospital that would make a mouse gain an oz.  By the way, this was not good food.  So there is no news here, and I am hoping that by next week, I will have some great news, scale wise.

I hope that everyone has a great day.  Nice cool weather for August and I am so glad for that.

Good Morning Chris and Cali Crew,

Congratulations on not smoking, Chris! That is a big step. I have had the electrical shock "feeling" test before. You are so right it is no fun, except maybe to the tech to watch your hand do all sorts of break dancing. I wish you luck my friend.
Today marks 2 and 1/2 weeks since surgery. Since I haven't posted my weight loss on either Wednesday, I am letting you know that I am now down 21.5 lbs! Boy, was I surprised. I am trying my best.
I have my post-op appointment today. Pacific Bariatric has their roving clinic in Riverside today, so I don't have to go all the way to San Deigo to see Dr. Zorn. He is heading today's clinic. That's good for me.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day. Make lemonade out of your lemons (make sure you use splenda, though!).

Hugs, love, & friendship always,

Good morning,

Not much going on here today.  Just work which I suppose is better than not having a job so I won't complain.  Well I will complain, but nobody pay any attention to me.

I'm down a pound this week.  After my huge loss last week, I really expected more than a pound, but I guess a pound down is better than a pound up.

Time for coffee before I start hitting the pile of work I have.  I seems all my clients that I've been pleading with to get me their books in here all decided that now was a good time.  Ugh, I have too much work and too many days off planned.  I'm using up all my vacation before tax season hits in January and then I can't sneeze for 3 1/2 months.  I promised my bosses there would be no surgery needed this tax season so I'm figuring they will work me to the bone just to get back at me for last year.  LOL  Oh well, like I said, at least I have a job.

Everyone have a terrific Wednesday.  I'm going to get some coffee and remember, do something wonderful just for yourself.

Good Morning Chris and Cali Friends,

Chris, great job on the no smoking!  You can do it.  Sorry to hear about your nerve conduction study, they are no fun but at least they will know how to proceed with getting you better.  I went to Costco yesterday and thought of you.  I found some new protein powder that Isla and I are splitting.  I have her now drinking protein shakes in the morning and she's loving them.

Today please put me down for 1/2 lb loss.  I'll take it and it's in the right direction.

Today brings me to get my nails done and my toes done.  Love it.  No other plans other than to get working on getting prepared with success statements for my interview.  I will create my "cheat sheet", get copies of my resume and references together.  So I will be "armed and dangerous!"

Tomorrow I am getting a new hair style (cut and color) and can't wait.  I will really be feeling good when I go into that interview! 

So that's all the news fit to print in my neck of the woods.  I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Hugs,
Barb
