My Tuesday weigh in 1 more pound.

Nice job!! As of today, I still haven't lost; haven't gained, but haven't lost...I need to go to the gym more. This time of year it is packed. They said it will slack off in March when most people give up on their resolutions. If I want to go, I have to go around 9pm to get on the treadmill, and at least this week, I am too tired, since I get up at 4:55.:confused:

Well, things aren't moving fast for me either. I went to a weight loss bible study last night. A fitness trainer came and talked to us about our diet.....70-80g of Protein a day, less than 60 sugars, and not more than 20% of fat a day. Basically it is the same diet my doctor put me on. So, I am working on it. I wish my wii weights would come in so I can start on resistance training. I am back walking, but he said cardio won't burn the calories like resistance exercise. YA think?

By the way, I started drinking EAS Advantage shakes. They are good. 17g of protein.

Well, girls, lets keep going. I know we will have victory if we don't give up.

Later!

Glad you made it home safely in this weather. Yeah, I have been reading the Beck Diet. You don't need the workbook....it is the same.

I am having a bad calorie day. Trying to fight this sweet tooth I have . Better stick my face in a book or go for a walk.

My Tuesday weigh in and nothing to report. Yep that's right no movement. Bright side is no gain. Guess I better step it back up.

Kimaly, same here......no gain or loss. I am still doing the Beck Diet and now the bible study on Monday. We weighed and measured last night. Yuck! The Beck Diet is about putting positive statements on post-its and index card. So, I am going to put up scripture too. The Battlefield of the Mind is about how we entertain negative thoughts and they turn into negative actions.

Okay, going to go walk. I got my wii weights, but I couldn't find the wii walking tape. I guess I will see if I can use them with the wii fitness tape.

We can do this! I hope all of you have a prosperous day!

LOL, I guess my age is showing also because I didn't catch that until your next post. Do you have the weights that velcro around your ankles or wrist? That's the type I have and I use them on the Wii fit plus with the step exercise on my wrist and the running in place on my ankles.

Mine have a clip on thing that holds the remote or you can take it off and use them without the remote. I only paid

$10.00 for them. I found them at Big Lots(a closeout store)

I'm really trying to stay with it this time, I have a bad habit of starting and not following thru with the exercise. I was kinda mad at that Wii, When I made my Avitar they made her fat as soon as I got on the scale. Too funny, hope I can get her smaller soon. It also said I should try to get down to 132lbs, I'm not even trying to hear that, I just lowered my goal weight to 150lbs and I think I'll be fine with that. It will put me at a normal BMI and if it ever happens, No more complaining about my weight I will just work on maintaining.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
