    I thought my weight loss was ending in January, the natural amount I was eating was increasing, more plateaus, the doctor said we lose about 80% with surgery... Then got a second breath and increased exercise and was more carful with food types and calories (this food tracker is a godsend).

    So now it's dropping off again and I am amazed. I've decided to lose 100% of my excess weight. I am 17.2 pounds away from my normal BMI. The challenge will be to stay there....

    Best wishes to all!

    Hello, Russ, it's nice to "meet" you. Good job on the steady loss this month.

    DeniseMarie and KatJohn, I can't recall if we've met, but I'm sure I've seen you here, so very nice to meet you both, as well.

    To those who have posted losses this week...way to go! Congratulations and good for you. For those who have not had the week they might have wished, keep your chin up! This is a temporary, and fluctuating, change. As long as we keep our focus on the way we want to live our daily lives the weight loss WILL happen.

    Thanks LeAnna, nice to meet you too. You are doing great yourself.

    I added an extra weigh in to give me a couple more days to get a bit closer to my month goal. It would be another pretty huge leap down for the next ten days but if I can get my butt off the couch more then maybe I can pull it off.

    3/17/14= I will be on vacation this week so will not weigh in. I am going to try to be reasonable on vacation but have to enjoy some things.
    3/24/14= 237 down .2 which is not bad for being on vacation at an all inclusive resort in the Dominican.

    This is the same I took some time to myself I didn't log for almost a week, I didn't post I didn't do much! Some things I noticed has changed! I am still drinking water without thinking about it, I am eating less at once, I am posting a NSV in a minute, I am healthier physically! I am still worn emotionally but this will pass and I will work it out! I have 5 days off work after tomorrow so I am hoping for some fun healing!

    Great job my friends :)

    A bit sad note for the end of the month since I was down to 253 earlier in the week. At least it evened out to no change and not an increase for the week. Time to kick butt in April!!

    And congrats to everyone for all of the hard work they are putting in!!!
