September will bring me a visit from my aunt and uncle. My son is 13 years old and named for their son who passed away when he was 5. They live in Germany and we haven't seen them since my son was an infant. This is going to be great!

I can't help with posting right now, but here's a question:
How do you respond to people who tell you you're "wasting away to nothing". I mean, that really doesn't sound like a compliment!

When I woke up this morning and got on the scale, I did a little happy dance because it said exactly 299!!!!!!! 
(That was my labor day goal... talk about cutting it close!! haha)
I think I can safely say that will NEVER weigh 300 lbs again!!!
(Well, unless I retain some fluids in the next week or so, I guess. lol)
My starting weight was 435 the week of Christmas 2007. What a difference 8 months makes.
My Halloween goal is 285... I could probably go lower, but we'll see. I seem to be one for frequent stalls.

I did not make my goal....242.2 sitll 
But I did have some great times with my family at Disney so onto refocus and the new Halloween goal is 235
I must focus as we have a week long trip coming up in October for the Food and Wine Festival and Halloween Party at Disney. I do usually loose weight there though because of all the walking!

With my teenage son back in school, it means lots of running back and forth because he's in the marching band, but I hope that it means a little more time for me during the day. I do like my quiet time. Jules

Hi Lea,
~ How do you handle a person who is constantly asking "How much have you lost now?"
~ Any ideas for getting out of the carb cycle?
~ What is the one book that has helped you the most with WLS?
hugs, Jules

The time is here! The Labor Day mini-challenge is now ending. I know that many of us have struggled this round. I, myself, celebrated my 2 year surgiversary with a pretty real gain (up to 211 one day!). I have not seen 199 in a while now! But, most days I see 205 or less, so that is still a loss of half my body weight.
How did YOU do this round? Did you meet your goal??
Please post your current weight AND your new goal weight for Halloween!!
Hugs
Lea

Well, I am down to 147. I missed my goal by two pounds, but I am losing and actually am a normal weight now. I just want to be in the middle of normal. So I am signing up again and my goal weight for the Halloween challenge is 139. We'll see how it goes!
