Monday Morning Weigh-In
on 3/19/12 1:00 am - Canada
Ah, the confusions of weight loss! I ate more this week (+ 100 to 150 calories / day) because I was hungry after 3 weeks of feeling sick, and somewhat euphoric because the Prevacid had dealt with my stomach pain and I was feeling soooo GOOD.
So, more food, and I still lost a little! I know this happens for some, but I NEVER thought I might fit into that category.

Only 1 lb to that amazing cateogory of the 140's; 2.5 lbs to that big goal of 200 lbs GONE; and 7.5 lbs till I stop. As my husband says .... "they can cut the rest off", hahaha! So close to maintenance that I can taste it.
Keep at it everyone. If, after 50 years of unsuccessful dieting, I can stick with this for a year + and have good results, then probably anyone can. The rules WORK!
Take care everyone.
Happy Claire

My weight loss is moving along very slowly since surgery...
Pre-op weight 270 lbs
Day of surgery weight (after 2 weeks of opti) - 257 lbs
Today's weight 225.8lbs
I've only lost 31.2 lbs since my surgery on Jan.18th...but I'm okay with it. I realize that it isn't a race and there is no wasted or lost time post-op. Its all about learning new lifestyle habits for the rest of my life.
I'm not sure what my goal weight is since we never established one pre-op. My goal was significant pain reduction in my hips and I'm already noticing some improvements. I think 170lbs will be my goal which gives me a little room for bounce back weight that will still keep me in a healthy BMI.
