In my mind, any loss is stellar, because it's not a gain. :ohmy:

Tis the Season of chocolate and cake and pie (OH MY!) so losing is losing!

Yep, that's how I feel at this point. I hoped I would be a faster loser than I am, but even at my slooowww pace I am thinner than I have been in many many years. I put on a long sleeved t-shirt yesterday that was my favorite last winter and it absolutely drowned me. It was hilarious. That made me feel so good cuz then I could see that I've made a ton of progress.

I just get impatient sometimes and want it to happen faster.

Well Mini, I lost 6lbs! I can't believe it! AND it's even that TOM time! I know I hadn't been eating or sleeping with all the worries of the old job! But I think it's the Plateau Buster's Diet that did part of it! I've been on it since Monday.

Dee~ Great job!! 6lbs in a weeks is freakin' FANTASTIC!!!

Mini~ I lost 1 this week, it was 1.5, but I seem to be up .5 today. So 1 down is all I got :ohmy:

Thanks Lotza!

I doubt it will continue at this rate! BUT I am usually very restricted during my TOM and then I was stressed for 2 weeks and hardly eating. It would be nice if it continued at this rate, but I'm not holding my breath! I'm sticking to the Plateau Buster's diet for now. I'm so proud of myself. My bestfriend asked if I could go to lunch tomorrow with her and some friends and I declined saying that, "I need to stick to my eating plan and it's not easy when I eat out." She understood. In the old days, I would have just gone out and probably just eaten!

Congrats on that Long Sleeved Tee! I love that! I saved the sweater I wore the day of surgery. I can't wait to take my 1 year pic in it! I think clothes are a great way to see a loss! It's proof, we've come a long way!

Ok, I'm checking in with my 1 lb weight loss for the week. A little disappointed, but it is better than reporting a 1lb gain.

      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!!
