I'm down 2 lbs this week. That is the most for a week over the past several weeks. I am going to the gym to run/walk on the treadmill or eliptical.

Been doing the Burlesque class and walking.

No excercise the past 3 days because I have a virus and have spent it on the couch and sleeping, just starting to feel a little better tonight!

Well I did not lose a thing this week. Stayed the same. Better than gaining I guess. Must be the little bit of cheating I did. We had Chinese last night LOL. Will be better this coming week.

Everyone's having a pretty good week, I see. No gains so far, yippee!

This was fill week on the backside of the retreat weekend filled with food (and I do mean every moment - retreat folks were making a lot of jokes about the overabundance of food!), so I suppose those two things cancelled each other out.

Last week - 204

This week - 201.5

I hopped on yesterday and was 199.5, so I got to live an entire day in onederland before climbing back in to the 200's. Sigh.

Exercise is good - walking when my daughter is doing choir or dance, going to the Y about once a week for treadmill/elliptical, working out at home the other times with On Demand workouts.

Congrats everyone!

Down 1 lbs this week my next fill is on Halloween day (hope that's a good omen). Exercised 4x this week (1 hour brisque walk at lunchtime) my heart rate monitor clocked 360 calories burned for each 1 hour walk!! It pays to go with the fit crowd from the office who consider this a stroll in the park compared to their morning jogs :wink_smile:...To keep me moving and motivated, I've set a goal (with the help of the fit group) to walk the Vancouver Marathon next May.

Hope next week treats you well!

Up 2 lbs this week...I kinda knew the 4 lbs down last week wouldn't hold. I got my 2nd fill yesterday, but am not enjoying the same reduction in hunger that I had with my first fill. Doc says I have to wait 8 weeks before the next fill; but that if I logged everything I was eating & could prove to him that I didn't have proper restriction for success, then he would consider sooner. I'm going to wait at least 2 weeks to see if maybe something will kick in; plus I need to recover from the 7 sticks that it took to get my fill yesterday...I'm very sore. My port 'was' in a good place, but I've lost the entire roll of fat that it was nestled in & now it's harder for doc to find it without flouro. He said it will get easier as I lose even more weight.

Good luck to everyone this week!!!

      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!!
