Summer/Independence Day Weightloss Challenge

[Guest Leslie2Lose]

I'm not updating mine right now. I went yesterday to the doctor for my followup from surgery and was up 4 pounds since this past Friday! I had my port revision then and was on liquids and mushies throughout the weekend. The nurse told me it was Water weight still left from the fluids I had in me from surgery. I hope so - still not posting the gain. I'm going to wait a couple of days to see what happens. Urrgggghhh...

I'm so glad everyone else is doing well!

Congrats my svelte friend!! So so happy for you. Don't know if I'm going to make it or not. I will be on vacation starting Monday till July 2. I don't know which way things will go for me, hopefully south!!

[renewedhope 4]

Thanks Nuke!! I am really pumped today. I was just looking back at my ticker and since starting low carb about 2 1/2 weeks ago I hav lost 9 pounds!! Looks like I have found the "diet" that works best for me. I don't intend to always "diet", but until goal I don't so much mind it!!

We are going on a mini vacation this weekend. I am going to do my best to not gain! Vacations are so hard!!

[wombat712 2]

UGH - it is super slow going now ...

Not much of a chance of hitting goal!

wombat - the only way I could get to goal right now is through PS, but I'm trying...so I know how you feel.

Renewed - I'm so glad you hit your goal - WTG! You must be stoaked...

Nuke - hang in there girl! I'm going to the beach this weekend - and need to do good. I'm ready to see the scale moving again. I've plateau'd. Darned late fills...I finally have some restriction since my first fill on Friday...I'm hoping to lose another 4 pounds by the 4th...hopefully I can be half way there :-)

Karen - congrats on your two pounds...keep it up!

[Guest Leslie2Lose]

Well - I weighed today - I'm still 225...the same :-) The nurse told me I am still holding on to some fluids from surgery. I'm happy to not have a gain! Whoohoo!

[Tess415 1]

I know I won't meet my goal but... I still am happy with what I have done so far!!!
