Last week’s weight – 211.4

This week’s weight – 209.2 or 207.6

Total weight lost this week – 2.2 or 3.8

 

Total weight loss since surgery – 36.8 or 38.4

 

I had a weird weigh-in today. I got up early and weighed myself and was happy to see that I was at 209.2. I’ve been consistently losing about a pound or so each week so I thought I would be in the 210’s this week so when I saw I was at 209.2 I was doing the happy dance because that means that I am out of the 210’s all together (and fingers crossed…FOREVER).

 

Then I went walking this morning (3 miles) and came home and immediately cleaned the bathrooms (which I hate but wanted to get them out of the way). I had nothing to eat or drink and when I went to take a shower after all that was done I decided to weigh myself again (surely I had lost some weight doing all that!). I stepped on the scale expecting to see the .2 of a pound gone after the 209 but the scale read 207.6!!!! I stepped off and on several times and it read the same each time. That would mean that I lost 1.6 lbs since getting up (which seems unlikely). I recorded both scores on my weigh-in calendar and decided I would let the chips fly where they would next week.

 

Either way the celebratory thing this week is that I am out of the 210’s. I also walked pretty consistently this week. Since summer break started I have walked a total of 27 miles.

 

Food Diary for the last two days –

 

Breakfast – yougert (4 oz) and granola

Snack – Diet Green Tea

Lunch – McDonalds kids 4 pieces chicken nugget meal with milk

Dinner – Ramikin size chicken, rice and crunchy onions, tomato mix with cream of mushroom soup.

Snack – Melon and a glass of the diet green tea

 

Breakfast – 1% skim milk (8 oz), 1 medium banana, slimfast high protein shake mix (chocolate)

Snack – Atkins bar

Lunch – Chicken salad (no bread), ½ a small bag of chips, 2 bites of pound cake

Snack – Mints (I was trapped in a very long training class and that was all I had in my purse J)

Dinner – Bag of edamame

 

Until next week!

Awesome you are so close to onderland!!!! I lost 4.0 lbs this week making my total 44.8 lbs. I had my first Zumba class Monday at the new center and absolutely loved it! This is the third instructor I've had and she was the real deal! I can't wait to go back tonight. I wore my black pencil skirt to work yesterday and I was literally swimming in it. I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the clothes thing. I don't want to invest a lot of money until I'm at goal. For my casual clothes I have been shopping at the cheap stores and buying maxi dresses. I think this weekend I will take my "during" pics and compare them to my before pics. I haven't been measuring so I will be using the pics instead. Keep up the good work!

You are doing awesome!! I love reading your menus. Gives me ideas of what I can eat when I get two months out. I was one month on Monday. I'm having left side pain and go to see my surgeon tomorrow. No other symptoms just pain. Hope it is just a muscle. I'm so ready to be able to exercise more.

Great job!! Keep posting! :)

I tolerate rice but in moderate amounts.

Leah - I've been shopping at Walmart. Try Goodwill too. When my sister was losing weight that is where she shopped to keep expenses down. I'm enjoying buying "tighter" clothes since I spent so many years in baggy clothes.

Lisa - I try to post my menus but realize everyone is different as far as what they can handle. My problems occur when I eat too fast. If I eat slow I do much better.
