Scale Didn't Read 199 This Morning :-(



Recommended Posts

But it did read 198.8! :-)

I completely skipped over 199. It almost seems anti-climatic. Lol. Very happy with my band. I've lost ~75 lbs in a lil less than 8 months. I have about that much more to lose since I'm short to reach a good BMI.

Good luck to you on your journey!

That's terrific Tara. It seems anti-climatic because you still have a ways to go. I'm in the same boat as you. I got to onederland back in mid June and while happy about it, felt the same way. OK, I made it but still have another 50 lbs. to go. I'm now down another 13 lbs. and have just purchased slacks in a size 16. I haven't been in a 16 in like forever and fitting into those slacks was a fabulous moment. So...the number is just that...a number. But it is a great milestone in your journey and one you should be so very proud of.

Anti-climatic? If I was you, I'd go out "shopping" and take a pair of pants & a shirt in the size you started off on and stand in front of that mirror in the fitting room and give yourself a fanfare, because what you've accomplished is FANTASTIC (I know you already know this, I'm just saying). Even if you have some old, big-size clothes, don't use THOSE, go to a store and say to yourself: "this is what I would be buying if I had not reach where I am today".... I bet that would be an reason for celebration!!

I think I just wanted to see 199 so bad I didn't know how to process 198. It just didn't make sense. Lol.

I did dig out some 16W and they fit. So I'm quit happy with the 198.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
