Topic: RE: Some important numbers for me!!!
Actually you know what. You would think that I would feel lighter on my feet having almost lost 100 pounds but I don't see that much of a change. Add 100 pounds on me and I'm sure I'd feel it but I do see a difference but not as big of a difference than I would have thought. Thanks for the encouragement Joel!

Hey Derek!
Où sont les femmes???
Keeping our eyes on the net weight variation is the best. Hydration and bowel content can cause noticeable daily variation...
I weighed at 174.2lbs yesterday am, but I was at 176.5lbs sunday night...Go figure!

Congrats on your 6 week surgeversary Heidi. Having lost 34 pounds since surgery is really great and it is at a quicker rate then it was for me so be proud of that. Take every pound lost on a weekly basis and you will be the skinnier, healthier you in no time! Keep it up girl. I can't wait to see the transformed you at the next supper.

Topic: Some important numbers for me!!!
Hey guys,
So I am 2.6 pounds away from hitting 100 pounds lost since the start of my liquid diet on February 10th. My goal is to hit that by next Monday. Another important number is that I am 9.2 pounds away from being in the 200's for the first time in a long freakin' while. My goal for that is July 1st. I have two important goals coming up. Let's hope I hit them!
I also forgot one important number! I have lost more than 50% of what I wanted to lose so I am less than half way there. I hope to reach my goal of 220 pounds (~190 lost), by January 2012.

Topic: Tuesday morning weigh-in???
Hey guys,
So I was away yesterday and no one did the Monday morning weigh-in? What's happening? Anyways, last week I weighed-in at 314.8 and yesterday I weighed-in at 309.4 for a loss of 5.4 pounds. That's one of my biggest loses in well over a month. The weird thing is, the scale was really weird this week; Tuesday 316 (+1.2), Wednesday 317 (+2.2), Thursday 318 (+3.2), Friday 316.4 (1.6), Saturday 314 (-0.8), Sunday 311.8 (-3). Those are some weird numbers... don't know what to make out of them but looking at it, since Thursday, I lost 8.6 pounds. Golf, Hockey and Fishing were all on the agenda last week. No gym again :(. I did make another video for those interested on YouTube. Anyways, have a great week everyone. I won't be checking in next week as we rented a cottage so I'll see you guys in 2. Stay healthy gang!

Hello,
I'm new to OH but I would love to meet up with folks from around Montreal who have already had their surgeries. I am planning on having a DS with Dr. Gagner in August and would love to hear about your experiences (especially Joel - since it looks like you had a DS).
I also wanted to know if anybody has had followup support from the Montreal Comprehensive Weight Management Clinic. I'm thinking I might need some "in person" support since my surgeon doesn't really offer any dieticians, exercise or psychological counselling.
Let me know if the meetup is opened to pre-ops too - I understand if it isn't.
