MAKING CHANGES

Congrats Ann! So did you want to reset your goal for the month?

Ok I stepped onto the scale today and I've lost 3 lbs so far. Woot!

Looks like Ann is kicking butt. 36 lbs.?! Wow. I need to get some tips.

I lost 2 lbs. this week. I do my official weigh-in on Friday morning. So, put me down for two this week - which brings my total, since surgery, to 17 lbs. lost. Woohoo.

I was stuck for almost two weeks, but added some calories and started exercising a bit, at a real low intensity, and seemed to do the trick.

How do I get on the board?

Goal 150

January goal 10 lbs

Let's maybe reset it for 260? I'm sure things are going to level out here soon. But then I go for my first fill on the 19th.

Really, I've been following instructions pretty to the point. Proteins first. 64 oz + of water a day. I can't stick totally with the 3 meals a day yet. I have a morning snack and afternoon snack, but I make sure they are high in protein.

I am trying to get in at least 30 min of good workout a day. I'm sure that after I get past this begining stage things will level off.

You are doing fantastic! Kudos to you. I'm doing the same thing you are, with the exception of a 30-minute work out. I'm supposed to wait 6 weeks, but I did start doing my elliptical machine this week for 2, 15-minute sessions per day and that kickstarted me into losing again. But, I am taking it easy, going slow, and not using the arm things, since I'm not supposed to be exercising yet. (I can walk, but don't on rainy 30 degree days.)

I'm also getting in at least 50 grams of protein per day from supplements.

I would love to add my info. surgery date 12/23/08
