Aug 24, 2010

Yes...I'm still stalled. It's like the scale is playing games with me. I bounce between 230 and 232. Some days I'm 230 then 231 then 230 and back down to 231.

I think I'm doing everything right. I'm around 1,000 calories a day. I today focused on how much I've lost both weight and inches wise. Looking at my progress I'm extremely happy. I'm not focusing on the scale at the moment.

Weight Loss:
   March -  21 Pounds
   April    - 21 Pounds
   May     - 13 Pounds
   June   -  10 Pounds
   July     -   11 Pounds
   August -  1 Pound (my frustrating month)

 Total of 75 Pounds Post op....Lets not forget about the 48 pounds preop since December for a grand total of 123 pounds.

I didn't start measuring my body until a week prior to surgery. Since then I have lost 60.9"

I noticed that some of my measurements in my Thigh and Calves have increased slightly (.5 inch) in the last month. I'm assuming that's the fat turning to muscle. Especially since I've been doing alot of walking and taking spin classes.

I went to a support group last week. Maryellen gave me some words that I'm going to live by. She said Remember the 3 "P" rule when it comes to weight Loss:

Perseverance
Patience
Persistence
