@Mandybb I'm sure that's frustrating, everyone's body does different crazy things! I hope it starts moving down more soon for you! Maybe you aren't having enough calories?

@jellybean12 I'm sorry you are going through that! It is incredibly frustrating I know! It gets much harder I think once you get down to the lower numbers but you are doing so well!

@Mandybb That's great! Congratulations! Try not to (even though I know it's almost impossible) compare your journey to others! I did that and it really drove me insane for a bit. I had SUCH a high BMI and yet those who had much lower were losing much faster than I was which made NO sense to me. I had to take a step back and enjoy my own journey and just be proud of each step I took downward.

@bill1130 You are doing so great! Congrats on your hard work!

@hermione53 Congrats for getting to ONEDERLAND!! You are doing amazing!

@jwinters19Congrats on breaking your stall! It's good to reassess what you need to do every so often!

@sxynanaI'm so glad this has been helping you!

@Torriluv87Haha I can SOO relate! I feel like this period has lasted forever this week! Usually I'm only for like 4 days and I'm going on 9 now :( I have been carbing it up! SO hard to eat right when I just want to cry and eat chocolate haha. Being a girl sucks sometimes! This challenge is over on the week of March 24th! I will start a new one after that!

@Jen-2+1It's okay if you don't reach your goal! You are still going down! Thats all that matters! Our bodies don't always react the way we want them too! You have the next challenge coming up to reach another goal!

My weigh in for this week is 303.8! I almost cried on the scale! I thought I would never reach my challenge goal of 299 this time because I kept going up and down with all the traveling and not making great choices but I started meal planning again and measuring and tracking and going back to the gym and I lost almost 14 pounds this week! I'm so excited! I can NOT wait to see a 2 at the beginning of my weight!!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
