Wow, you've lost 35 pounds in 13 days or was some of the loss pre-op? Whichever, keep it up!

No since my first Dr. Visit... that is why I differentiated between starting date and surgery date, but either way a pound is a pound Woo hoo! Thanks for the thumbs up.

OK, it is Wednesday and I am back to my low weight from last week so bring on the weight loss for this week, finally! Water weight is a real pain once a month! And I am started to feel more restriction so I am scared that I will not get all my protein in each day, hope that does not slow me down!

Until next Monday... Have a great week everyone!

Yeah! Haven't posted in the last couple of weeks because I went through my first real stall. I didn't get too stressed however and it broke, sure enough. I just pitched 5 pounds over this last week bringing me to.... drumroll... 169! 19 to go and I would be perfectly happy right where I'm at! Size 10's are baggy, everyone is telling me enough already and I'm feeling great and loving life! On the down side, yep, hairloss happens... by the hand full... I think it's slowing after a solid month of loss though. I sure hope so, it was thin to begin with. I'm also getting leg cramps every night... have jacked my potassium supplements, however, and it's helping. Wish I could get a true explanation as to how that happens... oh well! Thinking about plastics next year... tummy and lifting the girls! Whhooooohooo!

Oh AJW, ROCK ON WOMAN!!!!! Congratulations!!!!!

Quick weigh in this evening, almost forgot!

CW: 152.2

Next Goal: 150

I hope to be there by next week's weigh in!

Have a great week everyone!

Sheeze I forgot to weigh in yesterday.

180.5

Still. I am happy with staying that weight for so long. I believe my skin is catching up a bit. OR maybe I am just getting used to seeing it this way. hahaha

anyway, I am happy healthy and loving life.

I will probably go to loosing again next month. I think I am mentally ready to be in the 170ties.

Ever since I looked up my height/weight on that site someone posted and I found out I am not obese any more and that I am "normal" (ME NORMAL!) I feel like I am done. Officially done loosing.

Now,I think it is up to me to decide if I want to be any thinner. I really like how I look in clothes. We shall see. Maybe I just needed to take it a bit slower. I like learning about myself. This is good. I like that I can manage my sleeve. Hope I am not deceiving myself. Nah, can't be, I am too darn happy!
