Okay Yoda, I'm turning the big bright spotlight on you today. LOOK, Yoda is sooooooooooooooooooo close to the half-way mark!!!!! Yeaaaaah:clap2:

Thanks Cloe....I never realized that or looked at it that way....that IS helpful!!!

I feel bad for Mr Yoda though....as some of you may know, he has slowly but surely lost about 25 lbs (not banded....just doing things "better" along with me) but of course since he doesn't have the band he does the "yo-yo" thing a lot (that I'm sure we are all familiar with!). So, this week he gained 4 lbs!!! Eeeep. And there was no reason really that he should have....I hope he doesn't get too discouraged.....I mean, he doesn't have a tool like I do. I feel bad for him when that happens. He seems to take it all in stride but I know deep down it frustrates him.

Anyways.....yes, almost half way!!! Maybe by Xmas I'll be half way; that would be a kewl goal!

[argon 3]

Aww... I feel for Mr. Yoda. Mr. Mandi is also struggling. He's been going to the gym when I do, and workin' his ass off, and hasn't lost like he's hoping for.

But yes, new goal, halfway by Xmas?!

Poor mr. yoda and mr. mandi. Funny you dont think about men getting upset by the scale, but i guess they are more like us than we think sometimes.

[green 6]

Maybe Mr. Mandi's weight is now muscle? Muscle is good.

And Mr. Yoda is doing well. Afterall, he doesn't have The Gadget!

Mandi, maybe he hasn't lost because muscle weighs more than fat. That's a big motivator for men.

[CLOE 0]

yes, muscle not fat!!!

but, I truly know how the yo-yo thing feels

Rough week at my end. Mother-in-law was rushed to hospital Tues night....pulmonary embolism (sp?). Layman's terms....she has several blood clots in her lungs. It was very scary for awhile. She is still in ICU and will be for awhile yet and likely will be in the hospital for quite a while. Geez, her BP got down to 70/43....I'm no doctor but I do know that isn't good! Anyways, I didn't know much about this so I read up on it online (sometimes too much info is NOT a good thing) and that is how we realized really how serious it was. So, either they don't know that or they do know and weren't telling us. Anyways, we went to see her yesterday (they live 2 hours away) and I know that helped Mr Yoda.....being able to see her....but she sure did look rough and is still on oxygen etc.

They think this is likey a complication from having her knee surgery (both knees replaced) 6 weeks ago.

Anyways, fingers crossed that things will be okay and she will progress. We know she'll be on blood thinners now for at least 6 months.

So, between her and the father-in-law health probs ........never a dull moment.

Just thought I'd share.......cross fingers for us.

Gee that is rough on Mr. Yoda, he just had the scare with his dad and now his mom. Hoping she will get well soon Yoda.

All the best to you and Mr.Yoda :hug:
