Hi, happy Monday! I'm definitely still on holiday mode I think because last week was rough. I wasn't great with my diet...which the scale reflects that. I need to refocus and get it together.

This week I WILL get my butt back in the gym and get all my Protein and Water in. :)

My (Viv) weight is 219.6 lbs...no weight loss for me last week. :/

Keep the updates coming! I myself am down 4 pounds this week and where that came from I have NO idea haha. I followed my dietary goal of cutting down my liquid calories and apparently that helped a lot!

@ Michelle - Congrats on the loss!

@ Viv - Like I tell myself, better to maintain than to gain!

@ Jenn - Welcome to the group!

@ Joan - Yes I will post an updated one for everyone to see once I've logged majority of the numbers.

@ Vicky - Do you mean 287 and not 297? You had me change your weight from 299 to 289. Just wanting to clear things up.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
