Monday Morning Weigh In

[Keys Pirate 70]

You've lost more and I know you're exercising more and probably avoiding carbs better than I am. I probably have more than I should, although I still try to make them healthier ones, and there are some weeks where I'm very pleasantly surprised by the number on the scale. Pretty much I'm just trying to get my Protein and Water in, make it to the gym a couple of times a week and get some exercise in at work on my work days (13-hour days, but I work in an orthopedic physical therapy clinic so it's not I like I have an excuse not to do something there during the day LOL)... gotta get better about the carbs though. food boredom is a problem for me, that's for sure! You're doing awesome!

Hey Stacy! I'm not ahead of you by very much and we are both doing really well! I'm just wondering what you feel you are doing right as I'm sure others like to hear what works and what doesn't, I know I do/did. I feel like carbs definitely are key and although it's kind of a pain keeping track of them, I can easily handle it at least till I get to goal. Pre-sleeve I could only do lo-carb for not a very long time because I would get food bored too but now, with the sleeve, I am satisfied with such a small amount that I have yet to get bored with anything, really. It's great!!

I'm losing very slowly and according to the charts...I'm one that's on target for 70% weight loss. I sure hope I can beat those odds, and lose 100% of my weight.

173. I have been going up and down for about 3 weeks and getting a little discouraged. But I looked back at my post on 4/5 and was 177 so at least I have lost!

[Chancie 65]

I know its not Monday................ but gotta post. am back down to 177!!! woooo hooooooooooo!!!! Wonder if I can lose 2 pounds for the "real" Monday weigh in???

Would be toooooooo cool!!!

[Keys Pirate 70]

Arrrrgggghhh! I didn't bother posting last week cuz I had such a crappy week; only a pound down and here I am a week later only barely two pounds down in two weeks; I guess I'm not stalled by definition but it sure feels like it!! Have no idea what I'm doing wrong, if anything, my only hunch is I'm trading muscle for fat as my cardio has really increased over the last few weeks. Funny thing is, I went from 50 lost to 60 lost almost overnight it seemed, now this! WHINE!!!!!! Hope you guys are doing better than me!
