4 mos post-op still struggling along, 239 lbs

Jul 26, 2007

saw dr irgau today, told him of weight loss struggles, he stated that this is pretty common, just to continue to do what i am doing especially the exercise, very important and the weight will come off...i am varing what i am doing at the gym, more strength training along with cardio, every other day...when i start the new job i'll have time for both which will hopefully help as well

eating bigger portions is also normal, blood pressure 112/74 down, good...

 trying to up my water and eat a smaller portion size, think i am eating too much during meal, have gone back to poor eating habits, eating too many fats, and not stretching out my meal times, will try to do more protein by having 2 shakes a day again, hopefully my scale will show weight loss again, because i am stuck and not losing like i should, at least i am still 239, 1 pound a way from losing 60...

Struggling to make it,

Just doing the weekly update, slowly trudging along, not feeling all that great about the weight loss process and everything, even though this seems to be working, too much head hunger, mourning food, issues, and lack of desire to move forward...

a 3 month anniversary,6/26/07

Jun 24, 2007

Hey everybody!

It's my 3 mo anniversary, 253 and counting. This post was edited due to my thinking I was getting more room in my pants. I am still at 42 for now.
I was in the shower, my wedding ring fell completely off my finger, I have to take it off when I shower now, for fear of losing it down the drain.

3 months anniversary

Highest weight: 316

Pre-surgery: 298
Last week: 246

This week: 245, WTH? 1 pound loss and this was the same from last weigh in on wednesday

The good news is I still need new belt, put another notch in it...

Battling,

Al



ok going to try something different

Jun 14, 2007

ok, i will try to start doing this with lean meats, cheeses, and lot-fat or fat-free dressings, and also smaller portion sizes...no i don't want to be what I was before, nor do i want to live that way again, so whatever i need to change diet wise to start losing and getting better health-wise I'll do...also last time I went to the bathroom, lets just say there was too much in there for someone who only goes every other day...

going back to being focussed,
