Just got back from my new foot Dr... I am allergic to the screws my old Dr put in ... 6th surgery is happening on 8/25... he is going to put in stainless steel screws and he is going to infuse the 2 breaks in my ankle and take out the 2 old plates and put in 2 new ones in ... I really hope this is the last surgery so that I can get my life back

Hey yall.. I think I accidentally went into ketosis. Any of yall have experience with coming out of it and not gaining weight back?

I have been so focused on my protein intake and overlooked getting in some carbs. I did a sneak peek weigh in today and it's too much of a loss to not have some shenanigans going on.

Appreciate yall

"I apologize. This makes a big difference as it would have given you second place for weight loss for the week so congrats. I hate when I make an error in the weights. It does unfortunately happen on occasion."

"Due to an error on my part @Bluebabykatz was not acknowledged as being in the top three for weight loss. So a big congratulations to Marie."

Thank You Linda💐😃

It doesn't matter about being placed second to me, just wanted to make sure I stayed in the green for this week. We are all human and mistakes are going to happen.

I appreciate you changing the spreadsheet and I also appreciate all that you do for this team. I wasn't upset about not being in the top three losers this week. Like I said just wanted to stay in the green, when it's a week where I've lost weight.

Again Thank You! You're an (Awesome Team Leader) and I'm glad to be on this Amazing team with you and all of the Amazing Downsizers.

Marie,

I really don't understand how weight loss works lol.. I bounce between small losses and big losses, and strangely got the big loss while I was eating more cals than normal (granted I am still well under 2k cals a day) because I have started throwing in protein powder in my diet. My body must have zero idea what is happening right now, so it is continuously trying to reset itself. As long as the scale is going downwards I am happy, just very strange how it all works out.

I have been lifting weights the last few weeks and yesterday I downloaded the Conqueror Challenge app. Since I am starting to get my steps up, I figured this would motivate me to push myself even more. It is so crazy to think that I was 630 pounds just months ago. There were so many things I could do when I was thinner that I took for granted, and to be able to start doing those things again is such an amazing feeling. Little things like standing while I prepare a meal, pulling the trash bins to the street, standing to shower, putting real shoes on (not just slip ons)...

I was a drug addict for years in an attempt to slowly kill myself. Coming to the realization that I was still trying to kill myself, but with food as my drug, has really changed my perspective and added to my drive. What a wild ride. Love yall and appreciate you being here and motivating me.
