Yeah, I freaked out last season that I weighed more than Tim Tebow. I so feel ur angst! I'm happy to say that I now weigh less than Tim Tebow! Woot! Woot! Ull get there too!

Woot! Woot! U look fabulous! I like the black dress with the flower the best. Big NSV for rocking juniors clothes without spanx. Really, u look awesome!! Congrats!

I remember feeling so incredibly low around that time and I think I was really missing food. I felt like I was starving. I totally agree with the poster that said ur missing chewing. This was it for me! I wanted crunchy, darn it! Focus on soft foods and jazzing them up when it is appropriate with ur diet. As for plates- I saved money and just ate off saucers. Just think of the money u will save on plates and food. It can go into the new clothing fund. In regards to chest size- omg! I have shrunk tremendously. When I first began I was a 40DD, now I'm a 36C. I'm smaller than high school! I never saw that coming! Lol.

Weight before surgery: 235 preop / 212 day of surgery Date of surgery: 3.12.12 Current weight: 148 Goal weight for competition: 135 This is a lofty one! It will put me at goal. Good luck everyone!!

Congrats! That is awesome on all accounts. Yay weight loss as a team. Mutual support makes all the difference. And WOW, that 5k pic is priceless! Congrats on ur success! Life IS good.

Wowza! U can do it! U r going to be in onederland before u know it. I bet u feel as good as u look. That much of a loss changes so much about us. Congrats!

@1920-zeta: I know I could be on a slippery slope here, so please forgive me if I inadvertently offend u. Perhaps God is already working on it. U saw a new ob/gyn and a dnc is the recommendation. What more are u looking for? If the new doc is familiar with ur health history and the complications from a dnc, and they still made the recommendation maybe this IS what is best to prevent further issues for u. I hope u get some relief soon. Take care.

Oh no! Soreness does go hand in hand with personal training. I don't know why they push to that point. But- just think ur muscles will heal and it won't be so bad next time. Yay u for keeping the appt and working out. Wtg!

It happens. But I agree that if they r going to charge a split fee they should at least split it for u and bring out two plates. That was crappy service.

LUCK! Keep us posted on how the session went!

Yay u! Congrats on the surgery. I'm super impressed that ur online already. I just tried to sleep. It seems as if ur off to a great start to a quick recovery. Don't forget to sip and walk as often as u can. I wish u a speedy recovery!

I don't think it's a sign. It was poor driving conditions. I'm sorry about ur head and the nurse that weighed a buck twenty. Questioning surgery is perfectly normal. It's a major surgery. I'm sure u have given this plenty of thought. I wouldn't read anything into the car accident. I wish u the best of luck!

I've also found that just because u create a 3500 cal deficit it doesn't always equal a pound loss on the scale. It's super frustrating because our sleeved bodies seem to defy all logic and reason. Remember this if u ever hit a stall just keep working out and eating right. The weight will move eventually. Cheers to exercise!!

I have a solid wedding band. I just keep moving it to different fingers. I wore my band on my middle finger. Now it fits on my pointer finger. Lol. I think it drives my hubby crazy, but he doesn't complain much. Lol. I think he'll probably draw the line if I start wearing it on my thumb! I don't think that'll happen though as I'm getting closer to goal.

I tried to do the same thing- ask doc to take it out and was told no due to increased risk. Thankfully my doc requires a gall bladder ultrasound for all patients. Surprisingly I had gall stones and didn't know it. So, he ended up removing my gall bladder at the same time afterall.

SW: 164 CW: 152 GW: 149 Hi all! I'm a day early because tomorrow is the first day of school! I'm looking forward to meeting my students. So, I dropped one pound this week. I was hoping for the magic three again- no such luck. BUT- I ran my first official 10k in one hour and twelve minutes! The course had hills and I RAN the WHOLE time!! I'm extremely proud of myself. (see pic below) I finished couch to 10K this week as well. just three pounds to go... Good luck everyone! I hope u have a fantastic week!

Yes! I seriously LOVE me some VST too. I'm mildly interested in a live support group, but I've heard mixed reviews about the one in my area. Maybe some day I'll go. I really find VST to meet that need. I check in throughout the day on my phone- sometimes I reply, other times I just read. I'm five months out and I still check in ALOT. I find it keeps me grounded and it's a lot more beneficial than reading celebrity gossip in my down time. Lol!
