      CONGRATS!!! All I have been doing is going up slightly the last few weeks :(

  8. NSV--Being directed out of the women's section to the misses section. Then the saleslady brought me a 10 and an 8. They fit! Love Love Love being skinny!

      Congratulations on your success. But how funny that it took a stranger to make you realize that you are no longer big.

      Awesome I am still in between a 10 and 12...if I could only stop messing up.

  9. NSV--Back to work and so many compliments. People have stopped asking me what I lost and just tell me I look wonderful. (And beautiful, and lovely!) I'll take it! :)

      Well, being fabulous has that effect sometimes. Just sayin'. ( congratulations, you must be so proud ! Great job !)

  10. So sad to learn of the loss of Robin Williams. R.I.P.

      Depression is not easy to deal with, my thoughts and prayers are with his family. RIP Robin Williams

  11. Had fabulous if inappropriate dreams about an affair with chocolate last night. Woke up and ate yogurt, no fun-size Milky Ways anywhere. It's tough to be a skinny bitch.

      I dream all the time that I'm gorging on sweets like no bodies business.

      I'm very controlled in my awake stage but in the dream state I'm horrible. LOL

      It's down right disgraceful the amount of junk I dream I eat but boy am I glad it's just a dream.

      Luuuv your sense of humor! I'm a chocoholic too! Awaiting my skinny bitch days

  12. Quinoa. A savior and a curse. Barfing. Me no like.

      InfiniteButterfly

      I used to do pretty well with quinoa pre-surgery. Post surgery? Not so much.

  13. Updated goal to 145--the highest "normal" for my height. I am 10 pounds away from that, and I am finding my body settling into 155,. I'd like to get off this plateau and see the other side, understanding my maintenance weight may fluctuate between 145-150. Here's hoping this week brings another pound loss! :)

      Good luck Angie! We will get there. I just would like to see a "normal" BMI--under 25!

      marfar7

      I updated my goal wt a couple months ago, thinking it would motivate me more, seeing as I would be 10 lbs closer. It went from 130 to 140. At the time, I was 155. Now, 2 mths later, I've lost a whopping 2 lbs. I've been bouncing between 150 and 155 forever. I'm 2 lbs from a normal bmi (24.90) and while I'm pretty comfy in my size 8 jeans (down from a 22), I really feel the need to make my goal eventually. My primary care thinks I should try to maintain for a while and then tackle the last few lbs. I've just never in my life NOT wanted to lose weight so I don't know what it feels like to want to stay the same.

       

      Good luck to u!

      Good luck Marfar! My dietitian and PCP are tickled pink with me where I am, but I know what you mean. I lost 1 pound over the course of the last 3 weeks, and it's a little taxing. I'm not quite a size 8 yet, which is where I'd like to be. (Between a 6 & 8, rather than a 10-12) I guess I'll keep up the fight!

       

  14. Back taking Kettlebells class after a year away. Oh! My muscles! :)

  15. Fiber supplements and cole slaw, a deadly combination!

  16. An unofficial weigh-in weight of 156 means I am 16 pounds away from my goal. Will weigh again at the bariatric center in another week. Eager to be a size 8--1 size down!

      I am diabetic and needed some fast sugar this morning. Big mistake. I think I lost about 3 pounds of water weight!

       

  22. Oh man. Ate too fast. Gonna hurl--trying to hold back!

    1. ProudGrammy

      ProudGrammy

      i think "holding" it in is awful - if you have no choice go to the ladies rm - you will feel better, and hopeully you've learned a valuable lesson

      feel better soon

      It passed...It's been a rough few days with digestion for me. My body is rebelling against calories. It's been a fight to get in 600.

       

  23. NSV! NSV! A colleague walked past my classroom today and said she didn't see me and wondered if I had a substitute today. (I am a teacher.) Then she realized..."OMG! IT WAS YOU!" It was the best news I heard all day. Rockin' these Citizen of Humanity jeans! :)

  24. Oh! So that's what they meant when they said hair loss! Hope my head is shiny under there!

      acampbell1318

      how much are you losing? I can't figure out if it is my normal hair loss or if it is because of surgery!

    3. Teachamy

      Teachamy

      Not a ton, but enough to notice it sticking to my hands in the shower. I have very fine hair, so i notice it, but I am not bald yet! :)

  25. Didn't drink enough on Sunday. Woke up with a UTI. The agony! That will teach me...
