December 17 Check-in



Recommended Posts

Hi all. It's been a great and hectic week getting ready for Christmas. Of course this is my favorite time of year :) I weighed in at 205 this morning for a loss of 1.5 pounds.

How is everyone else doing?

Just checking in, no weight loss, actually on the upswing, gaining what I had lost in the hospital, but feeling so much better, more energy, even with the feeding tube and drain in. Looks like I will get to cheat through Christmas and my 40th birthday too - I don't go back to the Dr until after the first of the year so NPO which means no holiday caloriestongue.gif

Libbe..I glad to hear you are starting to feel better. I have been very worried about you!

Debbie..you are doing awesome my dear! You will be in Onederland before you know it!

I lost 1.2lbs this week and was able to squeeze into my old size 14 jeans! Big muffin top cuz of my big belly but hey! I got the darn things on!

Merry Christmas everyone!

I weighed in at 193 this morning. That gives me a two pound loss for this week. That is a total of 67lbs since the start of the year, and 52 pounds since surgery.

Merry Christmas everybody!

I wasn't able to get on the scale for almost 2 weeks because of my trip to India (I posted a little about it in the post-op forum). I weighed in when I got back at 202, for a 3 lb loss in that 11 days, then another .5 lb on Saturday. At 201.5, I'm now more than 40 lbs gone and so close to ONEDERLAND. I'm totally hoping I make it there by Christmas. I think if I'm able to keep up my walking (I did a lot of walking in India, which I think helped counteract the extra carbs I ate while there), I might make it, but it will be hard with the Christmas prep I have to squeeze into this week. I'm going to use the week I'm off between Christmas and New Year's to start an exercise video program (Callanetics).

Can you believe next week is Christmas Eve already? Good luck with the weight loss and Happy Holidays to everyone!

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
