I didn't really pick up exercise to lose weight, I didn't start until January of this year so 9 mos out.

I did it for toning and cardiovascular and mental health.

Sometimes its hard to get up and go, but I have a damn Step Counter and I know if I don't go to the gym I'll never make my step goal and I'm pretty anal about that! LOL I don't usually go on the weekends those are my down days, but I've just incorporated it into my weekly routine....its just a part of going to work now.

Over 100 lbs lost! and 13 lbs below goal weight!

I give you lots of credit exercising and going to the gym!! I'm not an exerciser and I decided from the beginning I wasn't going to do that to loose weight. I knew I would never be able to do that the rest of my life so I had to find another way to loose and keep it off. Routine and boring that's me....lol.

Sounds Good!

Good afternoon everyone!

So, I did my Zumba last night. I was the only person in the class. I'm not sure if that's a good thing because nobody was there to see or a bad thing because the Instructor only had my clumsy ass to look at!

Having said that, I did have the best nights' sleep I've had in a long time. I didn't want to get up this morning, but of course the gym was calling my name. Did my 5 kms because its super cold, windy and damp here so I won't be getting out today.

Post Op RNY 19+ mos - Have I got some variety going on today....

B - 4 oz Costco rotisserie chicken salad (yumm-o)

S - skyr yogurt

L - 4 oz Costco rotisserie chicken salad, with 4 oz Costco greek salad

S - 2 HB eggs

D - Pot roast

Total Cal 1023, Carbs 21, Protein 114

Have a great day everyone!!

Over 100 lbs lost! and 13 lbs below goal weight!

WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER.

Success in Maintenance starts with GOOD CHOICES during the Honeymoon Period.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

9 + Years!!

Afternoon LW's!!! How often do you weigh yourself? From the very beginning I've weighed myself everyday the first thing in the morning. I know others have posted they weigh once a week or month. Every day works best for me. I feel like if the scales are up even a 1/2 pound I can watch for a few days and get it off. I don't know about you but my scales can move up really fast if I eat something on my "no no" list and I like to keep that from happening by checking every day.

Breakfast:

Protein: Matrix Mint Cookie 35g

Lunch: Scrambled Eggs, Bacon, Cheese

Snack: Nuts and Cheese

Protein: Matrix Mint Cookie 35g

Snack: Apple

Dinner: Not Sure - Going Shopping

Snack: Lightly Salted Popcorn

Topic: RE: Where are all our Lightweights??

For me, after 7 years post op, its about journaling and being aware of what I am eating. Sounds like youre doing all the right things but maybe its time to recheck portions and limit carbs. It does get so frustrtating when that dang scale wont move!

Maybe you need to up the protein and try to walk more or sneak some more movement into your day.

Good luck! Congrats on your success so far!
