I have been faithfully weighing myself on a daily basis since last April. The numbers on the scale were important before surgery, since I had to keep track of how much I lost, but since having the surgery I’ve found myself even more anxious about what I weigh each day. It’s silly, I know, considering that even without the stricture I would take in maybe 600 to 800 calories, and since the stricture developed I’m getting 500 or less. When my scale batteries died last Wednesday I was annoyed. But by this weekend? I was definitely anxious… I was going to wait until today or tomorrow to pick up new batteries, but I caved and called Dan last night and asked him to please please please stop on the way home from work and pick up batteries. And awesome husband that he is, he did. ♥
Today’s weight: 243 lbs. exactly. 88 lbs. down, and I’ve gone from a 26/28 in pants to an 18/20 (I’m wearing 20s, but they’re bagging a bit. I can get into an 18, but they’re quite snug at the hips), and from a 46DDD bra size to a 42DD. Life is good.





I wonder what size you’ll wear at 160lbs?
I don’t think its silly that you weigh yourself each day. I do that myself, and feel the same as you do about being anxious about losing the weight. I think your weight loss progress is exciting!!! I can’t wait to accomplish my weight goal either.
Congrats again Jenn!! I feel the same way when our scale goes out – like AHH need my scale! I weigh myself every Saturday even though I’ve got to my goal I still keep up with it to keep myself in line each and every week because I AM going to make SURE I DO NOT let myself gain that weight back =)
Woot Woot! :D
Congrats on the weight loss so far!
You go girl. Congrats on the weight loss
That’s fantastic!! Congrats!! I know I gained quite a bit of weight a couple years ago after a fall on my motorcycle. I’m to the point where I’ve stopped weighing myself now. It’s always encouraging though to see others lose weight. I’m very happy for you!
