I'm pretty shure i'm not alone here. I have a love/hate relationship with my scales. I usually don't like them very much but in the last few weeks we've been getting along pretty good. i weighed 257 this morning. lowest i've weighed in years. It might go up a pound here and there but as a whole i can see it coming down.

But i can also tell i was so big it seems there is going to be a lot of xtra skin left over when the weight is gone. I'm pretty sure i'll need a tummy tuck but not sure if i want to put my self through that. Thats just something i'll have to worry about later but as for now just concentrate on the other weght i have left to loose.

So COME ON SCALES KEEP BEING NICE TO ME lol

:confused::biggrin::ohmy:

Love the scales when you come back from vacation and didnt gain ANYTHING!

Hate the scales when everyday it says the same thing over and over again!

i loved the scales this morning. i was down another 4 pounds and under 300 pounds now. its been a longtime since i was here.

im also going to have to have alot of skin removed. i can see alot of skin sacking now.

I Have a lot of skin also but not sure if i could go through with it.

I dont have a lot of skin but I do want my arms done soon...and I want my chin done for whatever reason my double chin has stuck around!

im going to have my chin,arms, belly. legs and anything else that needs it. but its all going to have to wait until im done losing most of my weight. im hoping by the end of 2010 i will be there.

I spoke with the lady over our plastic surgery clinic the other day (who is a bypass pt) and she looked awesome. She had lost 125lbs and looked awesome. She told me that if you are planning to have excess skin removed, that you need to start getting your PCP to start documenting skin problems now, so it will be in your medical record. She also had the new lipo that they do on her back. She said its done with a laser. They kind of liquify the fat and then suck it out, so it is the less brutal... She also said that it tightens the skin. Pretty cool. She said that she had it done at lunch one day and was back at work the next. Pretty cool!

I equate getting on bhe scales with that of playing a slot machine at the Silver Star. I'm all like "come on red white and blue 7s!"
