22.3 pounds to go, weight wont go down if i'm not on plan ...

anyone else??

I'm staying on plan today because I've eaten too much lately and I have my pre-op/lab hospital visit Monday the 17th and that's the day I start the liquid diet too! - I need to drop 5 lbs by next Monday to be at the same weight I was at when I got weighed at the dr's office 2 weeks ago! what a nightmare of food it's been lately - I would call it the "seafood" diet. I'm doing the low card right now, under 20 carbs/day - just to give it a headstart and hopefully drop a few pounds.

finally getting that fill today.... nothing like being forced to stay on plan...

I'm soooo jealous! I don't get mine until 1/18, I am going nuts!

I am staying on the plan today because I have eaten too much lately and the scales aren't moving. I have to start sometime to get back on track and today is it!

I'm staying on plan today because I finally had to admit to myself that I can't eat just one cookie, or have just one scoop of ice cream, or just a nibble of my dad's wonderful peanut brittle. If I am going to be fully commited to a new lifestyle, I need to eliminate what is not good for me. Bye-bye, sugar:rofl:

...because when I weighed this morning I had dipped below the 250 mark, in the 240's!!!!!

It's been 10 years since I was this weight, and I'm not done yet! Goal weight, here I come!

i am staying on plan today because it's been a REALLY crappy day at work and i do not want food to be my outlet anymore.

I'm staying on plan today because...........I am 4 pounds from my GOAL! I want to be at goal in 2008!!

I am staying on plan because I am able to eat more at the moment and want to lose more weight, not gain any of what I have lost already.

I am staying on the plan because I MADE IT THRU THE COMPANY PITCH IN!!!!! (I am on liquids getting the band tomorrow) I did that I can do anything!
