Monday Weigh In: Pre-, Post- and Non- ops welcome!

Thanks for reminding me that it is the long term trend, not the odd fluctuations that we should notice. I try to see the scale as just one measurement of that progress, but there's a whole trunk full of baggage with La Scala, isn't there.

Good to see you over here. :>)

I was reading the posts trying to remember what I weighed last monday..LOL..I cant remember.  Why can't I ever remember what I weighted the pervious week.? Probably because I weigh every freaking day.  I'm a scale junkie..

So...
I think last week I weighed about 298 or so
highest was 423 in Nov of 08
surgery weight was 338 july 09
current weight is 291

My main concern now is  MY HAIR IS FALLING OUT!!  I'm so not happy about this.

Hey April, I don't remember either. I pop open another tab and go back and look - LOL!

Hi all,
Wed. I will be 3 weeks out.  I'm still on clear liquids and 3 protein drinks a day.  My surgeon doesn't let us start pureed until week 5.  I can't wait.   Sometimes just looking at the protein and taking another vitamin makes me want to hurl.  I'm sure it will get better once I can eat something real...won't it?? 

Start: 378
SD:  344
LW: 323
Today: 319   
Grand total:  59 lb 

Great job Linda. I hope to do as well as you my surgery is Oct 21. I am sure it will get better. So happy for you and all the other people that going thru this same journey

Thank you, Patsy.  I'm sure you'll do great.   You have just a little over a week left.  It goes fast. I can't believe I'm almost three weeks out already. 

Linda

How are you healing up? You had open, didn't you?

Hi Patti,

I'm doing okay.  Got a couple sore areas still.  My surgery was done lap.  I have 13 holes because I had a umbilical hernia repair done also that was huge.  I'm battling head hunger at times.

 Since I quit the anti-depressants I am up 4 lbs, was hold steady @ 210, but now up to 214.

Keep on dancin'!
