Friday Weigh-In!

[PhotoChic 70]

That's a first for me Ellie... I had not heard of a doctor saying to lower Protein. Just FYI... I was in a 3 week stall and upped my Calcium and exercise and lost 3 lbs.. I was like wth.. But somewhere I read calcium helps promote weight loss and I love those Carmel calcium chews anyway so ill keep doing it. You are doing so well and are an inspiration to many!!

Yes my doctor said the lower your weight gets that is a certain amount of protein you'll need according to that weight!

It's crazy how all doctors have different philosophies. My doctor says the amount of protein you need is based in your height.

Doing pretty good. Hungry today. I converted last Tuesday, so I'm only 6 days post op. But happy I am finally under my surgery weight.

I'm at stall right now 2 weeks. UGH!!!! Let see if the scale moves for Monday. I change my goal weight from 125lbs to 110lbs... I'm 2 pounds away from 125lbs but decided I want to be just smaller.

Good job. What was your doctors goal weight for you?

Well, I woke up thinking it was Friday, so guess what! I weighed. It's been exactly one week today since my surgery. Oh, and I have a question. Do you count the day of your surgery as post-op? I'm asking because I've noticed some new ppl counting it and some not. I'm a newbie, too, of course.

Anyway...... I'm down 10 lbs. plus the 5 gained in the hospital from all the fluids, etc.

I count the day of surgery. I've been weighing every morning anf today is 9 days post op. I haven't lost anything in 3 days and I've been walking a mile everyday. I am so upset.
