MONDAY WEIGH IN!

It looks like you're doing a pretty good job in terms of your food intake.  With your workout routine, you may actually need to be eating a little bit MORE if you want to continue to lose.  Would you be willing to try adding 100 or 200 additional calories to your daily routine?  You could add a morning snack or an after dinner snack, sticking to healthy choices (apple w/ a piece of string cheese, cottage cheese, yogurt, beef jerky, etc.).  I know it seems counterintuitive, but if your daily calories are below your resting metabolic rate, your body will hold on to any stored energy (fat) and you won't lose, no matter what you are doing. 

You may want to repost this in the diet and nutrition forum, and see what advice the registered dieticians can offer.  They may want a little more detail about your daily routine (portion sizes, etc.) to be able to offer specific advice. 

Good luck on your continuing journey - you CAN DO THIS!!!!!!

I miss Trader Joe's!  Colorado won't get Trader Joe's here until they change their law that says grocery stores cannot sell wine. Did I mention I miss Trader Joe's, desperately?  Kix

Hey Julie, I just noticed we had the same surgeon.  I love him!  I am so pleased with my choice! Carrie

Hi Marge, Well I am ashamed to say I have been away from the Monday weigh in for 3 weeks and it shows. I had my gallbladder taken out on the 10th.. was home for 2 weeks, no exercising and totally grazing the whole time. I wanted to post last week, but was so embarrest, but I got my ass out of bed this morning at 5:00am went walking, and today I will post my weight.. I am officially back on track. It is so scary to see the scale go up again.... Well here goes my numbers Beginning weight 473 Surgery weight 417 3 weeks ago 183 today 190.5 ugghhh I am so disappointed in myself. I plan on doing some serious exercising from now on. Thanks for being there Lynn

Lynn, honey, there is no shaming here.  We're all just here to support each other.  And we all know what it's like to get off track, for whatever reason.  So welcome back to the fold, and don't be afraid to come back next Monday, even if that darn scale isn't being friendly.  We'll be supportive and see you through!!! Kellie

Thanks Kellie... Your support means alot

Lynn Don't beat yourself up. Instead lets beat up the scales. We all go thru it at one time or another. We are here for support. You will get back on track and the scale will be your friend again.

Yeah, I wish I could throw that dang scale away sometimes. Thanks for your support... Lynn
