Week 7 Postop - Weigh In

By mrsteacher

· 434 views

Today is week 7 for me postop. I've been losing at a fairly slow (but steady) pace so I was surprised to see that the scale read a 3.8 weight loss for the week (yay!).

 

My total weight loss is now at 29.4 lbs lost. I'm happy to write that I am out of the 240's, 230's, and now the 220's. Now to steadily lose out of the 210's :)

 

This puts my average weekly weight loss at - 4.2 lbs (I've decided to factor in the 10 lbs I lost pre op).

 

Not sure why the scale jumped so dramatically this week. I've only exercised once this week (deliberately).

 

My best meal this week came from the Outback. I had their seared Ahi Tuna appetizer (small plate) and a cup of their baked potato soup (Yum! My new Outback favorite).

 

Now to see what the next week brings!

    Good job! I'm still losing slow as well. Down 2.8 lbs this week and that was with 2 workouts. I'm really trying to bump it up. Keep up the good work!

    Grateful05 - I eat probably 4 oz of food at at time which would be 1/2 cup. I don't think it is too much.
