Howdy Shamrocks!

I'm not going to repost the list because I didn't loose this week. I am going to be happy that I didn't gain. I did stick to the plan, so it is slightly frustrating, but that is ok. I had to get on the doctor's scale twice this week and I was down from the last time I had been to see them both times. My goal for 3/25 is to hit between 65 and 75 pounds lost. I even know the goal after that! I know I shouldn't get ahead of myself, but at that point I will be real close to oneunderland.

So, moving myself is the goal for the next week. It has been tough. My involuntary exercise is ok, but I need to get back with the program. Walking a few city blocks here and there isn't going to cut it.

Congrats Harley on getting back on track. Scrappy, you are an inspriration. Everyone has a tough time at some time. I'm guessin you will be at or very close to your goal by your one year anniversary.

Teri - great NSV. I think the NSV's are better than the SV sometimes!

Well... I again stayed the same, holding on for Tuesday when I get my desperately needed fill!!!!!

Glad to see so many of my shamrock friends on track!!! You guys rock!!!!!

Other news... had to cancel a big 90th get together for my grandma this weekend due to the forecast of up to 10 inches of snow by tomorrow evening. Holy Cow... we have seen a lot of snow this year!!! So far the first wave brought about 2 inches this evening, just planning on staying inside and warm this weekend:)

Down one this week. Not sure how that happened with all the munching I have been doing on all the wrong foods. Anyway, back on track tomorrow.

I have started doing stretches with my 8 yr old DS every evening. This week we found out he has a part of one of his vertebrae that never fused. I took him to the doctor because for years he's been having back pain and it's not getting better. So he has "spina bifida occulta". Thank God it's a very mild case, but I was very freaked out to see his spine was "broken" on the x-ray. His flexibility is limited since his spine does not curve normally and doing the stretches might help/can't hurt. So while I'm on the floor I'm throwing in some abdominal work....imagine that.

So, feeling blessed to have my three beautiful healthy children (I was very scared for a few days while the spinal surgeon and the ortho guys were consulting), and so glad I am getting healthy and thin.

Harley! You stole back my five pound weight loss this week! So I'm updating again.

Good loss to those who've lost, way to maintain to those who maintained, and chin up to those who had a little bump! and Yay to Scrappy, who was feeling blue, but powered through.

Christine, that must have been v. scary indeed - I'm glad your lad is fine!

I now repost the CORRECT data!

No body answered the Body Bugg question. Are you still using it? Why did you stop? It sounds interesting but I guess not realistic to use all the time.

I don't know WHAT you copied! I was down 5 lbs but in one week - the thing you have there has never before existed!

I'm being coy about my start and current weights. When it gets to something more palatable, I'll put it up. Indeed, when I began pushing for this idea, I think I specified that people don't have to put their weights down!

Ok guys, I can't figure out what it is that you're doing with the weights. Is it a weekly weigh in? Or what is it? I am clueless since I wasn't checking in here for a few weeks and now I would like to join too.

yes, weekly....we've been setting Friday as a weigh-in day!

I am just so surprised at what difference it made in how my band feels by doing that little five day program. I made some whole wheat Pasta and marinara with ground beef for dinner last night and seriously felt very full with about 15 penne Pasta noodles and some sauce....sure hope this lasts!!

I propose that each week we start a new list with just the pounds lost/gained that week. Fresh week, fresh list. How about that? With no current weight.

I tried to make it as current as possible. Sorry if i missed anyone.

      Hey guys new to the process looking forward to this new life.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
