    Sunday Weigh In (10/9/2022)

    Last Week: ? Today: 146.6 I decided to go ahead and step on the scale since I 'felt' like I was slimmer than I was not so long ago, and decided it might be a good idea to monitor this. 4-6 months ago I stopped taking Remeron, and realized I suddenly had very little appetite, so I was aware I...

    Sunday Weigh In (10/2/2022)

    Hi all! Looks like I've been away since May of 2021, when I had that (probably) self-induced complication when I lost too much weight and ended up in the hospital. Everything is good - I am not weighing myself anymore, but with a 32"-33" waist and comfortably fitting into medium shirts (even...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/30/2021) Memorial Day

    Reese's peanut butter cups is what contributed to my weight gain in 2020 which started all this - perhaps I should return to them! I don't doubt you have restriction 10-years out. I think the idea of "stretching" a stomach is an over-blown fear. I've often eaten "one bite too many" and still...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/30/2021) Memorial Day

    Last Week: Don't know for sure, 128 or so? This Week: haven't looked. I don't think I've gained much actual weight, maybe a few pounds. Eating whatever I want though I'm finding the restriction which is still very apparent even three-years out of surgery is an obstacle to gaining much needed...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/23/2021)

    Yeah I'm feeling much better, everything digestive related seems to be working well, and I came home last Tuesday, so from Fri-Tue in the hospital - more than long enough for sure, hospital admission isn't fun what-so-ever.

    Sunday Weigh In (5/23/2021)

    Last week (few weeks ago) ~121 lbs. This week: 130 I think a good portion of that weight increase is water weight since I went off keto, and probably a fuller digestive tract since I've been eating a lot more, but it's heading in the right direction regardless. I'll reevaluate at 135 - Dr...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/16/2021)

    Yeah I agree - I don't think keto is really the right way to go for me. I liked the 'mental clarity' aspect of it (which I might be overestimating) as well as the lack of hunger (which isn't a good thing after all, apparently). The downside is all this keto stuff - blood ketone monitor, test...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/16/2021)

    Dr. Ganta has been really good through this ordeal, has visited multiple times and answered questions and demonstrated concern and knowledge, so I really can't complain there. My labs have been checked everyday and supplements have been added as my vitamin/mineral/electrolyte levels have been...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/16/2021)

    Well, wow, almost as soon as I crossed the threshold into an 'underweight' BMI I began to experience medical problems culminating into my current extended stay at a hospital. I was admitted on Friday after severe abominable pains which I figured, correctly, was some sort of intestinal...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/9/2021) Happy Mother’s Day

    Last Week: 123.2 This Week: 121.2 Still working on this. I ate quite a bit (relative to normal, but still a deficit) a couple of days this week and suffered pretty badly for it gastrically - so much so I had to send my GF to walgreens stat in a somewhat of an emergency situation from the...

    Sunday Weigh In (5/2/2021)

    Well I'm trying to mentally do so - it's just hard to eat more I guess, since I've been in an almost obsessive weight-loss mode for a few months now. I saw my surgeon today for a checkup - he was pleased with the results and just advised me to not worry about calories and just eat healthy foods...

    2.5 years out and mine always grumbles. You get used to it (as do those around you..)

    Sunday Weigh In (4/25/2021)

    Last Week: 127.4 This Week: 124.6 I'm starting to try to pull out of weight loss mode while sticking to a strict keto diet. It's a bit of a challenge because it's difficult to get my head around what I've calculated I need to eat to maintain - probably at least 2300-2500 calories, maybe more...

    Thanks for the heads up, I'll watch for the battery issue. Pretty nice scale for the price with all it's (however questionable) bio-electrical Impedance measurements it does.

    Sunday Weigh In (3/28/2021)

    Last Week: 135.0 This Week: 132.2 (old scale) 132.8 (new Renpho smart scale) Well I reached my goal of 133.2 yesterday, and surpassed it today - actually 132.2 per my old scale I've been using this whole time, 132.8 on my new Renpho scale which I think is more accurate. 133.2 was my lowest...
