Yay! (3 Months, 40 Lbs Down)

[goldenraisin214 142]

BAH! The number on the scale keeps bouncing around and it is driving me CRAZY! It had gone up to 201.2 a week ago and today was at 200.0 WHY is my body rebelling against being under 200lbs?!?! I want my onederland back! I only had it for about 3 days, but still...

I was thinking of you this morning as I got on the scale hoping for the 199 as yesterday I was at 200 - what did I get? 201.2

I set a personal goal of 199 before memorial day - not sure I will get there (but it won't spoil my beach weekend plans)

Tomorrow is another day

Congratulations! I am so happy for you and the new life you have made for yourself!

[goldenraisin214 142]

Thanks, Ivy! Janerose, I thought of you too and wondered if you'd made it yet. So funny that we got stuck at the same number! the 1.2 fell off in a week, but here's hoping it doesn't take you that long!

Golden - ok today starts the memorial day weekend as you know my goal was to be under 200 got on the scale it was 200.0 one 10th of a pound away -

Not going to let it stop me as I leave for the beaches of Cape Cod tomorrow morning at 5:00a - with my much smaller clothing and bathing suit - and lots more self esteem.

I will walk more and most likely indulge in more drinking - but I will be happy and thankful I made this choice.

Enjoy your wonderful long weekend, Janerose. This morning I was 199.6--now if I could only make it stick!

[janerose 109]

good for you - it will stick

So how was the weekend? Hope you had a good time and didn't worry too much about the scale while you were there 197.6 this morning--hopefully that means that even if it does bounce a bit it will stay under 200! *fingers crossed*

[janerose 109]

Congrats! I think you have the 200's in your rear view mirror at this point. That is fabulous. I am still holding on the 201 - 202 range; the weekend was probably responsible for the lack of lost - I had a few cocktails above reason - but back on the horse and working at the ultimate goal.

keep in touch - and cross your fingers I make it into onederland soon!

[goldenraisin214 142]

I hope you're right--those couple of lbs will probably fall off now that you're back on your regular schedule...I'll check in with you soon--good luck!

37.3 lbs GONE (including pre-op diet!) If I count that time, I'm 9 weeks and 2 days out - and feel AMAZING! Yay for April!
