Tomorrow Is My 2Nd Weigh-In

[Mid West 99]

I had my op on 10/10 and had lost 9lb by Monday 21st October. It's been almost 4 weeks since then and I'm getting weighed tomorrow. I don't feel I've lost much, if anything. But I guess I'll find out :-)

Even if I'm losing just a pound a week, I'll be happy. I'm eating well and although I'm tracking my calories to around 1200 a day, I'm not feeling deprived or that I'm on a diet.

So, I can live this way forever rather than feeling its a diet with an end-date. If that means the weight loss is slow, I'll go with that (as long as I'm losing something).

Hmm. Didn't happen as my nurse wasn't there. Not a problem , I'm hoping to catch up with her next week. It's weird being five weeks post op and not know if I'm losing any weight :-/

Are your clothes fitting differently? If so, you're losing (winning)!

silly question and Just curious but dont you have a scale? Or some place else you could weigh at? I would go nuts by now not knowing lol

[Mid West 99]

I do have one but would really like to weigh on the same scales each time. Plus the one at the surgery is so high tech, I might get a totally different reading at home. I'm happy to weigh once a month and then stalls etc shouldn't bother me too much :-)

[Truckerchic 171]

Well that makes sense fortunately my job only allows me to weigh once a week as I am only home once a week lol I went thru a few scales before I found a decent on and it alwy seems to match my doctors not so high tech one lol ....Im sure you have done great!

Hello. Quick wee update. Was weighed today, lost another 5lb which makes a stone since two days prior to surgery. I'm happy with that. I don't feel deprived of anything and if I lose 1lb a week, I'll be where I want to be this time next year. I'm currently 219lb and would like to get down to 168lb (12 stone).

Much better now thanks, the first week was tough but each day is getting better, just really low on energy still... Hope you're doing well?

Congrats UK, great attitude also keep up the good work...thank you for posting in lbs and stones also

Thanks :-) Everything over here is going towards KG and I really don't understand that, lol. When they weigh me, I have to convert it on my phone before I have any idea how much I've lost :-) Just one more of the joys of getting into bed with Europe, lol.
