Lost 7 Pounds I'm Happy!

[Alexandra39 72]

I lost 7 pounds in the last month by counting calories with myfitnesspal.com and I cut out soda, I'm so happy I only expected maybe a couple of pounds because I went over the calories a few days but it didn't matter. yay!! My PCP thinks it would be helpful if I lost another 8 (to ta 15) just to make the surhery easier. I went down from a 42 BMI to 41.

I also won one of Dr. Oz's giveaways. I couldn't be more thrilled. Here's a link to the photo gallery of the product.

Congrats on losing those 7 lbs. you are doing great. Sorry to say, but if your pHP advises you to lose another 8 lbs. before surgery, maybe you should do for it. Maybe thats the certain% of your weight that you are supposed to lose?

It is easier when you take off a few lbs. before surgery, then you have a heard start, but....

Way to go, i'm sure you are getting so excited about surgery.

Winning a giveaway from Dr. Oz, now thats what I'm talking about I luv Dr. Oz

good luck on your surgery

Thanks everyone. I'm super happy about it. I think that FitBit Prize I won can work with this site too. I can use them together. That would be great. Right now, I use my an app on my daughter's IPOD as a pedometer but now with this I don't need to. I'll have one of my own!

Yes, I am determined to lose thse extra 8 pounds. I hope I don't hit a plateau. I remember one of my attempts of losing weight, I lost 10 pounds in a month and then I wasn't losing anymore. I had to stop trying at that point because I needed surgery for something else and the docs told me to avoid strenuous activity until after recovery and I just never went back. It's true once you hit that plateau it does affect motivation a bit.
