I weigh in weekly and plan on posting here to keep me focused. If anybody else wants to post their losses on fridays with me feel free. I figure the more the merrier and we can cheer each other on as we start climbing back down the scale! Personally I find Fridays help keep me focused over the weekends.

Happy Friday.

My weight today is 282lbs.

Thanks!

Kaner

305 for me today. I hope it's the fluids I was given after surgery.

Yay! Everyone is doing great! For those who had a TINY gain, do not sweat it, we are in the early days and our bodies are still adjusting!!! We will all gain on the occassional week. The important thing is "ITS WHAT WE DO MOST OF THE TIME THAT MATTERS!" and for us... thats LOSING WEIGHT!!!!! yeeehaaaaa

Welcome to all the newbies! Our shrinking group is expanding rapidly (oh we can have so much fun with weightloss jokes. hahah)

I think Celtic and Sexy Lips have fallen off our group?

Just waiting on Friday's weights from Angie, Lulu, Contemplating (although I think she just got banded?) and WannaB.

For those of you who have posted "down 30lb all together today" and not given any weights - welcome, and thanks for contributing - thats awesome - however if you want to be part of the spreadsheet (you don't have to be if you don't want to) I will need your weight before the LB journey and this week's weight.

Off for a night in a flash hotel with a friend of mine (no, sadly not that kind of friend) ha ha. So signing off till tomorrow xx

Hey! I am sorry I am reporting late. My weight for this week is 269. Coming closer to my pre-op goal weight!

I had my surgery on Friday. At that time I weighed 217.

I started my Protein shakes today. The Max Protein vanilla, it seems very very sweet and I don't know if I can drink it. I am going to have to call the dietitian tomorrow and ask about another brand or go back to Carnation Instant Breakfast, which I will have to drink more of to get all my protein intake. Any advice anyone? Wende@cox.net

Thanks!

I love Friday weigh ins! i started at 221, pre op 214, and now 209. No changes all week. Talk to everyone on Friday!

I used CIB too but added an extra scoop of Protein powder (I changed it up between a whey protein powder and a soy protein powder.) That definitely gave me the protein boost I needed.

LingLing! You're the best! I love this Friday weigh-in! I even like the competition piece that you've added ... it provides a bit more motivation/incentive to stay on target. Sweet! Congrats everyone for making it this far!

Lingling - I was still at 260 on Friday. Nothing gained, nothing lost. Sorry I didn't post earlier.

What is a flash hotel??

Hey everyone, I would love to join the Friday weigh ins. I had surgery on 4-16 and was 250. It is the 19th and I am 239. Probably water, but I will take it. Please add me to your list! Thank you!
