Friday Weigh In Oct. 17, 2008



Recommended Posts

Last week: 265.2

This week: 265.0

2 tenths lost this week. 39 total since surgery. 40 is in my sights!!!!:smile:

Woo hoo for tenths of pounds! lol I wasn't really expecting to lose any, and wouldn't have been surprised by a gain, since it is that TOM and I've had the munchies all week. But I have worked out at Curves every day and my "pre-munchie" calorie count is usually a little low. So the extras may actually have helped. Also, when I give into my munchies it is much different than it used to be. I can be happy with 2 chips or a few pieces of candy corn, or 1/8th of a Reece's Peanut Butter pumpkin that I cut into pieces, put into a ziplock bag, and hid behind the butter in the refrigerator.:frown:

It's been a banner week for me 7.5 lbs lost.

10-10-08: 248

10-17-08: 240.5

This has been my best week so far. Last week, I only lost 1 pound, but I worked out hard all week. I think that I was adding more muscle mass last week which slowed the weight loss. Even though I didn't drop pounds that week, my body fat dropped 1%.

Last week: 196.3

This week: 196

Wkly loss: 3 ounces!

Yep! That's THREE OUNCES! LOL!! Before surgery, that would have ticked me off. I had a rough week though and I know what I did wrong. One was the chips that I posted about earlier in the week. More often that not this week I was rushed for lunches and dinners and was eating WAY too fast and WAY too much and getting over-stuffed. My goal this week is to slow it down. If it looks like I'm going to be rushed, then maybe just eat some Peanut Butter and have a meal later when I can go slower. Another thing that kept happening was I would be STARVING and then being rushed... it was a bad combination. I also feel bloated. Yuck! Oh and NO exercise this week either. So, I know what I need to do differently and I'm going to work on that this week.

I'll take the 3 ounces though! It marks a total of 40lbs since I started this process with the classes in March! I also had to drag out some smaller bras from my drawer (from a 42 to 38!) and I'm wearing smaller shorts that I haven't worn in almost 5 years! Very exciting!

Have a beautiful day everyone!!

I am down 1 pound this week. I'll take it!

I want the scale to move like the rest of you. It's been a slow journey for me. I go get me second fill next Tuesday.

btw, I have a 10cc band that they put in 5.2cc in at surgery, my first fill they put in another 1cc so, I now have 6.2cc in my 10cc band. That seems like alot at the beginning after a first fill? I still have no restriction? I wonder if it depends on the size of your stomach at the time of surgery on how much they put in? any ideas?

I had an appt for a fill on Friday 10/17 but I had lost 12lbs in 4weeks so we decided to hold off. I hope that wasn't a mistake.

I am up 2 pounds this week. I spent the week in Reno for a tax conference and spent a lot of time sitting on my rear and eating catered food. The late nights partying probably didn't help too much either. I am so glad I have a fill tomorrow morning.

Congratulations to everyone for some great losses!

I just realized I posted this week's weight loss on last week's thread.

Anyway, which ever thread you read, I am now down a half a pound this week for a total of 32 pounds.

      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.
