juliarh 35 Posted December 1, 2010 Irene - you are so right -- the scale does not have the final say in the story, we do! So happy you had a loss this week -- I'm with you on the last time I lost weight at Thanksgiving (I think that's a "never") -- whooo whoo! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cherice95403 13 Posted December 6, 2010 Hi there everyone! Lost another 2.5 this week. This seems to be my new norm. Down to 189.1-woohoo! I went shopping this weekend and had to buy new jeans and a new coat. That felt good let me tell you. It is so inspiring to hear everyone's stories. I know I have never lost during a holiday season. I won't be checking in next week because we are taking the kids to Disneyland as a surprise. My daughter is 4 and my son will be 3 next month. I love Disneyland so i am totally excited and can't wait to see the kids faces when we get there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PamelaAM 16 Posted December 10, 2010 Wanted to join you all over here! Never seemed to get past the Post Surgery section so happy to see this section here as well! The weight is coming off slower now but that is fine with me. I am able to eat most anything now but very small amounts so it feels pretty much back to normal as far as food selection. So happy I got my sleeve. . .:-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliarh 35 Posted December 11, 2010 Glad to have you join us Pam -- you should be here! How'd you do this past week? Your overall weight loss looks great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliarh 35 Posted December 15, 2010 Hey all -- checking in on my weigh in day -- thanks to my TOM (that ol' biddy) I lost a grand total of .2 lbs. yep. .2 lbs. I look at it this way, I lost during my TOM -- soo, onward and downward, right? But, I've had some great NSVs -- I'm running now (so that should help weight wise) -- I haven't been able to run in ages -- so I'm very proud of myself. I am in regular size 18s in pants and XLs for shirts (I'm getting desperate because I keep buying and then nothing fits after a month or so) (wish I could go to Goodwill or something but that doesn't exist here in Paraguay) -- anywhoo -- the scale was only gonna cough up a bit, but I'll take the bit! Hope you all had a good week too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Labrys 3 Posted December 15, 2010 Labrys here.... OK ok... I few days late in posting. I have been busy rehabing my house in anticipation for sale. You know, sweat equity. I'm down just a pound but I am pleased. All my clothing are getting loose, and some are no longer wearable. Here's the scoop. HW 238 SW 230 Last Week 197.5 This Week 196.5 My family has not seen me since the surgery. I'll visit with them the week after Christmas. I hope they are as pleased as I am. This old body is still shedding the weight allbeit somewhat slower than some others, but that its coming off is the important thing. All of you are doing sooo well. I love the support we give each other. Big time success energy being sent along the way to you all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

momto2boys 0 Posted December 17, 2010 I feel better than I have in years. I was outside sleigh riding with my kids today and had no problem sitting my big but down on that sled and going down the hill with a kid on it with me and it was great and better yet the kids loved it. Best thing I have ever done hands down.nothing like spending the day in the snow with husband and kids to let you know how lucky you are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

juliarh 35 Posted December 22, 2010 good morning September Sleevers! I lost 4.2 pounds this week, which is nice considering I barely lost last week. All my kids are home from college so the house is chaotic and I'm trying desperately to get ready for Christmas and it's not working! But the fact that I keep losing is a good thing Hope everyone is doing well!! Have a Merry Christmas! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
