Topic: RE: It's Weigh-In Monday again!
Made my minus 50!  Even though I have a long ways to go, I feel sooooo much better than I did 50 pounds ago.    I've never lost more than 50 on any plan before (and had never been this big) so I am looking forward to moving onward.  Love my sleeve!!!

Starting/Highest Weight: 313
Day of Surgery: 300

Topic: It's Weigh-In Monday again!

Another Monday, and I'm up again a bit.  Not a lot, but it's a trend I don't want to continue.  Perhaps it's muscle??  she asks hopefully...

Starting weight:  298.4
Last week:  144.7
This week: 145.1
This week:  Gain of 0.4 lbs. 

I will say that my weight was 143.8 after my run (and after breakfast and coffee), so perhaps it was water.  See me justify?

Topic: RE: Basal Metabolic Rate for maintenance
I don't belong to a gym, and don't have the money to pay for the testing.  One person I know paid something like $500 for testing--I just can't do it. 

Lately it hasn't been an issue, b/c I have been eating too much.  I am working hard to find the balance...

Better off doing the resting metabolic rate test that they have at some gyms - it calculates resting rate - meaning how many calories you are burning just being alive - not even counting activities.  That will give you a better idea of how YOU are burning - not a calculation.

I also can highly recommend Dr. Raymond Drew at Abbott - he is very nice and makes sure patients questions are always answered! 

He is the best!

Congrats.
I too had a fun comment when shopping with my hubby yesterday. I tried on a dressy dress at Clothes Mentor in St. Cloud and it was a size 8. The sales gal wanted to see me in it. I showed it to her and said it makes me feel skinny and she said "well, you are!" That was soooooo fun to hear.

 I enjoyed meeting with all of you and appreciate your comments and insight. There is always something to think about, something to improve and having a renewed commitment to doing what is mindful and healthy.
