Slowly losing my way to 200 lbs

I gained this week but I have a thing I don't change my ticker because then next week I would count it as a loss and it wouldn't technically be but I went from 221 to 223 this morning.

I was weighing 219 until yesterday morning when it jumped but I noticed that since Wednesday evening my left leg has been swollen so I don't know why I am holding on to that Water but I am.

I had an NSV today! I ran 1 mile in 12 minutes. That is the fastest mile I think I have EVER run (even when I was a child because as a child I couldn't make it a whole mile). I am trying to get to 10 but 12 is better than 14 last week! I run outside so I don't have a treadmill to push me.

Have a blessed weekend!

WTG! I have been working toward a consistent 10min mile too, 12 is really great! Keep up the good work, the time just seems to shave off when you least expect it!

Well - I am down 2lb this week. I went from 193 (my fav #) to 191! Woo Hoo! I hope my weight will keep moving down. My goal is to get another 40lb off, but I think that might be pretty aggressive.

Have a great weekend!

Last week: 184.4

This week: 182.3

Difference: -2.1 !!!!!

WhooHoo!

I discovered last Friday that I need to be tracking my food on a nearly daily basis. I'm eating just for the heck of it, even when I'm not hungry. Tracking keeps me accountable and makes me think twice about eating something. Even if I can't track that day. It's also helping me get more of my Water in. I was having a hard time with that too.

So a nice loss for me b/c I tracked my food all week. Very happy about the loss but shocked to discover that I was eating mindlessly again and in reality, eating around my band. :wink: and :)

The exercising is going well. I normally do 1.5 miles while pushing DD in her stroller, with the dog on her leash. When I can go by myself, there is another mile loop that I add for a total of 2.5 miles. Both are killer, all terrain and steep hills walking. The extra mile loop is even harder than the other that I do. Anyway, I've been trying to do the 2.5 mile loop a couple of times a week but can't always get it in if DH isn't home. This week I was able to go 2x. Happy, Happy!

Congrats Tutornmom! WTG!

Glad to see the scale move down again for you, Kristen! I know that was driving you nuts!

Great job to all of our LOSERS!!!

Have a great week!

Great job everyone I am the same. But then I didn't gain either. I am losing slower than I want too. But then again no gain LOL

My clothing is getting looser anyway so that's good.

My size 12 jeans are getting loose in the leg and waist. Woo woo.

Last week I forgot to weigh at home and made the assumption from the doctors scale that I was even (183# -no loss/no gain). So...today when I stepped on the scale and saw 179.5, I was excited and bewildered, trying to remember what I did this week that caused a 3.5# loss. Can't think of anything that stands out, but I sure am happy!

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great 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.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!

        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.
