FRIDAY WEIGH IN

21 AUG 2009

*************

Hey everyone.

I feel so bad about the spreadsheet. My life has been crazy. Huge family dramas and I am sorry I haven't updated the sheet.

I weighed in today at 120.9kg What a BEAUTIFUL number.

That's 266lb.

Isn't it astounding... I may still be fat and have a long way to go, but God, its good to feel like there's hope and light at the end of the tunnel and I am feeling sexy and feminine again. Its phenominal. Hope you guys are feeling the same! :blink:

I won't promise to update the sheet, as then I'll feel bad if I don't. But I will try

xxxxx

Morning All. Weighed in at 264.5. Went to the Dr. yesterday for my second fill, turned out I didn't need one. I'm still losing and I don't get hungry. So why fix what's not broken.

Hope everyone had a good week.

211.2 today. I was really hoping the scale would say 209 but it didn't. Not a great week for me but I think it is hard on the body to have big losses each week- kinda has to balance itself all out.

258.8 today. I moved out of my parents house and I don't have a scale for my new place yet so I had to weigh myself at the gym (ie fully clothed and after eating) so it's probably a pound or two over what I would have been on the old scale. Either way still lost (finally) so I'm good.

I have an appointment today but I don't know if I'm going to get a fill. I haven't been very good at listening to my band these last few weeks so it's hard for me to judge where I'm really at. I don't have trouble eating any food at all. I can eat Bagels, Pasta, rice, etc... and I can eat fast without getting stuck or PBing but I don't necessarily think that makes me too loose. I think if I really tried harder to pay attention to that "comfortably satisfied feeling" I'd find I was in a better spot that I think. I'll just have to talk to the doc and see what they think I sould do.

No change for me this week still at 249. I'm scheduled for a fill Tuesday but not sure I'll get much put in I'm having some slight stuck feelings at times and can't eat chicken at all. A lot of it is going for so long with out restriction I don't slow down, take small bites and chew like I should.

Good Morning Gang !!! It's me, Pokey (aka) Doodlebug11 (aka) Sharon and now I'm adding a new name ~~ Slow !! I'm down .5 pds. I went to the Dr. Thursday to get a fill and he said it was o.k. to lose 1/2 or 1 pd a wk and he asked me if I was getting hungry between meals and how much I was eating so I didn't get a fill. He said if I start gaining or get hungry to come back in and he would give me a fill. He said I could still lose alot of weight in the next year and it's better to lose slowly ! So I'm thinking that I will hit the 50 pd loss by maybe by Jan. 15, 2012 !!! lol But that's o.k., I'm stll losing ! Catch you guys next wk.

Seems I have been gone for a long while. I'd like to update my weight. I am currently down to 256. I am the tortus of the group, but I will take a loss anyday. I am getting skinnier and healthier! Awesome!

      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!!
