Weigh in... how much have u lost?



Recommended Posts

As of yesterday I'm 62lbs. down. Unfortunately, that has happened without any exercise. I'm trying to get back into the grove now that I'm less self conscious about myself. Hopefully the exercise will speed up the weightloss. All of these 80-100 lb losses are motivating! Great job everyone!

I hate to say it. But last night I had a fluke, I went out to dinner with husband and friends and was able to drink, eat and be merry like the old days. Maybe I didn't eat at much as I used to or maybe I did. I don't know but it felt like a picnic. you didn't hear a word from me while I was eating.

Here's the bad news - up 3.5 lbs this morning. Won't be doing thisd again even if I can.

Have to be very careful at Superbowl party tomorrow with all the goodies.

Good luck to all of us.

I bet you're retaining some Water from the drinks. You might have gained a pound or two but I'm not sure it's possible to gain almost 4lbs overnight! Don't be too hard on yourself...we all have days/nights like that.

I was banded on 5/19 and have lost 45 pounds. It looks like I'm a slow loser compared to some others on this thread. I take karate and go 3-4x/week - it's a crazy workout and i sweat ALOT! I'm eating anywhere from 1350-1700 calories - varying day to day.

Can you all tell me what your calorie intake is and what your typical daily diet is? I'm getting frustrated and wondering what is up with me.

I'm right there with you. Same loss and working my butt off!!

I am going to the gym 6 days per week. Doing 45 minutes of cardio and 25 minutes of strength training.

My diet consists of 50-60g's of Protein, legumes, high Fiber Cereal (I munch on this for snack). I have definitely changed my eating habits for the better and I expressed my frustration to my doctor.

I made an appt. with a nutritionist to fine tune the nutrition some more.

I have been a slow loser all my life. In fact whenever I have gotten to this point in the past, I have always relapsed and started gaining again...more every time. I am determined to get past this "hump".

On the bright side, I have always shown a loss everytime that I have gone to the doctor, I have improved on my bad habits, I feel that the weight is gone forever.....

Keep plugging along. You owe it to yourself!!!

Thanks for the reply....I guess we just have to keep plugging along and not get discouraged. This is the point in past diets when i would go back to my old habits as well...So we have to look at all that we've accomplished and be grateful.

Going to karate class is a few minutes!

Thanks!

I try to stay around 1300 cals with at least 60g of Protein per day. Do you change up your workouts at least every 6 weeks?? I have been reading some research that says you need to change things up every 4-6 weeks or you body gets used to it. I have posted in other threads that I am doing ChaLean Exteme... It is a ninety day circuit training program similar to P90X...It really works, I am gaining muscle and burning fat.:cursing:

104 lbs as of today!!!

I am doing Power 90 which is by Tony Horton who does P90X, it is what he did before P90X and not as extreme. I am noticing great results and hope to maybe do P90X after this 90 days is over. I am just now going into week 4 though so it's a ways off.

I am losing slow compared to a lot of people. I try to stay around 1,200 calories. I do really well at sticking to 60 grams of Protein, then vegatables and then carbs. I started doing Turbo Jam the 20th of January and it is helping. I have lost 4 pounds since I started. I have lost a total of 53 pounds.

Finally!!!! I've been at the same weight for weeks. Lost 3lbs as of this morning!! Gone forever:biggrin:

Hey Ladies... the workouts you guys have been mentioning above (power 90, P90x, Turbo Jam, etc...) are these DvD, books or classes you attend? I need to have a better excerise plan. I am slowing down and colories alone are not doing it for me anymore. I really struggled to lose these last 3 pounds.

Congrats on the loss!!! The Power 90 and P90X are DVD's and are available at www.beachbody.com they are the only 2 I am familiar with also P90X is sold on QVC. P90X is much more intense and more expensive but is a series of about 12 DVDs. Power 90 is cheaper and a series of 2 DVD's. Though Power 90 is a DVD I do it up at my rec center. It started out just 2 of us doing it and now 3 others have joined us and none of us have room in our living rooms for that many. So the rec center lets us use a TV and the aerobic room when there is no class going on. NOw folks are seeing us iin there and interested in joining us as well. Though it's not a 'sanctioned' class, it just started out as 2 friends working out together. But it's neat to know we've inspired others.

      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.
