Chriss--I don’t think they have thought about the cause for the anemia...just put me on iron with a retest in a month. I don’t eat a lot of red meat although I do eat other iron-rich food... just maybe not enough.

Sooz--great job! My friend lost 100 pounds on WW. She works for them now.

I need to light a fuse under me. Great inspiration.

Since I gained 3 pounds on my trip I have lost all of it. Now to get down to work. Which basically puts me back where we started but I can do this. Katy

I guess this means I actually lost 2 pounds. LOL

I just can't seem to get over the 11 pound hump.. I have lost 11 pounds since we started this and I am up and down a pound but haven't seen 12 pounds yet...

Carole, great job on that pound, you go girl.

Chickie, hope the iron is helping.

Becca, wow, three pounds.. great job.... I'm proud of you too.

Katy, I'm sorta where we started.

I do ok staying away from the sweets. I just need to slow down and stop eating when I am full... there are staving people everywhere and it won't make one iota of difference to them if I clean my plate or not.. no matter what my mom said...

you all keep up the great work and the support,

Chriss

Thankfully I stayed the same as last week. I'm still up a bunch from where we started. The only time I've ever lost weight was when I had dental surgery and couldn't eat. I need my mouth wired shut.

EDIT: Chriss--I can't tell any difference with the iron. Maybe I haven't been on it long enough. I'm still cold and tired. I think maybe that might be part of why I eat... "to get a little energy". I know that happened when I was anemic 25 years ago.

I'm still the same this week and probably will be next too because Easton's birthday party is Saturday and this grandma is having cake and ice cream! LOL just as long as I don't gain I'll be happy :-)

Tomorrow is my official weigh in. They sent our scale back to the manufacturer Because it stopped working properly. So the leader is bringing in her scale for a couple of weeks. GRRRRRRR YOU KNOW WHAT MEANS. We don't know how accurate it will be. Oh well, I had my infusion today so who cares. I have worked hard this week. but will not know if that scale is accurate. Will let you know tomorrow how it goes.

The scale was so off. Hard to believe that out of 28 people, one girl loss weight. We are still waiting for the official TOPS scale.
Had my infusion yesterday, and the scale said I gained 1.6 lbs. They feel the scale is off 1 to 2 lbs. so at least I didn't gain 3 lbs after the infusion.

Tomorrow I am starting a walking thing with a buddy from TOPS. We are going to meet and walk most days. That will get me going. But, of course, I am now feeling guilty because I will not be taking Luke. Guess I will have to take him separately when I can. Another week down.

I met my friend from TOPS at 6 am and we walked two miles. Came home and got my other buddy, Luke, and took him for another mile. This better help in this weight loss program. LOL
