Molly - Great job! 100 lbs gone forever!!!!!

Count me in Y'all! I need a little motivator right now. Man, I've been considering that BodyBugg myself. I just don't have the funds right now. Besides, I'm still big enough to where I don't really need it that bad. I'm sure that day will come though!

I haven't lost any weight in a week or so (thanks to TOM). I'm hoping for some big changes soon!

Might be a bit skewed as I finally got around to purchasing a new scale (hopefully accurate). It says i've lost weight, so i'll go by it.

Actually, had fill on monday, so its near what dr.'s scale was, and since its been a couple of days, I think its accurate.

I haven't lost even 1 pound!! Hopefully that will change after my surgery on 6/18 and I'll still have time to meet my goal!

Don't worry kathy, it's really hard right before surgery. I had a hard time myself, but I got through it - and believe me, if I can get through it, ANYONE can! I can see you are dedicated to the cause, and you will rock that band girl! :thumbup:

My scales are sooooo stuck. I am using my bodybugg, showing a deficit each day. It is not TOM. I have increased my exercise, so maybe it's added muscle, but the last couple of days I find myself feeling discouraged and making food choices that I shouldn't. Maybe I need a fill?? I really don't think so, but I am soooo sore I can hardly move (from exercise), I've increased my water, and my scales are going nowhere?? Any suggestions???
