I know it isn't the 1st anymore, but I'd like to update my weight. I have gained weight, again. 544 was last time I was on the scale. :( I have decided to start the process to be approved for WLS. With the NHS it can be a long process. Heck my initial appointment with my GP isn't til June 3rd. Just thought I would admit that I hadn't lost weight, but I am in fact doing something about it. I am counting calories and seeking the best possible outcome for myself. |

I second tagging what you normally eat. I'm a creatur of habit and eat a lot of the same foods, so I have a list of 20 regularly consumed foods which helps. I usually eat the same breakfast and lunch so those are easy and I plug them in in the morning before I go to work. Then I update any snacks and dinner after the fact. So I enter calories 3 times a day tops...most days only 2 times. I like entering my stuff on CC as I am too lazy to carry around a notebook everywhere, but it does work for some people. I am a huge advocate of finding what works for you and sodding everyone elses opinion, lol. So find your groove and stick with it! |

Well, I'm not happy about it, but I am reporting it anyhow. I'm so big, water retention is a huge issue and due to gout I cannot use water pills. :(
Today, I am 532 making a total loss is 6 measly pounds. I had lost 20 during the first week...I think I might be eating too much still so I need to look into that, but any weight loss is good for me. |

wow, it's 15lbs, lol. I kept counting from 535 cos that's what I thought I was, until the scale told the truth. That's a good first week :) I'm not looking forward to the slow down that is to come. Another 23 lbs and I am getting a hair do make over. I have really long hair now and I'm thinking about an angled bob with some highlights.
Thanks for the warm welcome:) |

Thanks everyone!!
I was able to say no to MickeyD's tonight and yes to baked potatoes and green beans all because of how good I am feeling. I coulda stayed within my calories, but it just didn't seem like the sensible choice, even though hubby really wanted it. This feels fantastic, I can only imagine how good I am going to feel after more weight comes off. :) |
