The dreaded post Xmas and post Vegas weigh-in and pleased to report the scales say 11st 13, so a gain of 1 pound which I’m over the moon with. 3st 13 lost in total. Aim for next week is to lose more than I gained and go past the 4 stone mark.

This past week was difficult for me weight wise. For a lot of the week, the scale seemed to be heading in the wrong direction. I think less exercise and portion size creep were responsible.

I managed a small loss of 0.6 lbs (0.3 kg)
This gives me an overall loss of 76.39 lbs (34.4 kg) or 5 stone 6.39

My starting weight was: 273.59 lbs (124.09 kg)
It is now: 197.2 lbs (88.7 kg)

5 feet eight inches

and not often of late

I reduced weight over about a year or so by 8.5 stones going from 18.5 down to 10 stones since then have put just about a stone and a few pounds back on wife and family more or less have insisted on it as they thought I had lost too much but I would prefer to keep it at about 10 stone 7 Lbs if possible.
I agree with your family. I like my kids to be healthy rather than skinny so that if they're ill they can fight it themselves rather than as an inpatient to up their strength and fluids. Many of my friends have very skinny children and every year are seriously ill. :( All unnecessary in today's world.
Too skinny doesn't guarantee illness but IF ill then your body is stronger to fight it off.

Wow I'm now 128.80kgs from the hospital reported 136.00kg in October/November'18
From last week's or 2wk ago 131kgs so very very happy. That's with a meal more than veg and seasoning. For a change.
Well I'm back to 128.90kgs this morning. Had gone to 130.00 on an evening. Hoping just a Christmas blip.
So this week a 1.1kg loss. About 2.5lb loss.

Seeing bariatric nurse or similiar at the end of the month for a weigh in.

Diagnosed T2 at 61kg - one of those few who are unable to get obese. Primal ketosis reversed T2 at 63kg. Free-weight training incereased to 64.5kg whilst making my jeans looser around the waist.

Next stage - fully buffed and fighting the ladies off with a stick :shifty:

I was about to type only a pound this week but then reminded myself every ounce counts never mind a whole pound so now I proudly say I’ve lost a pound this week
Start weight 15st 12
Today’s weight 11st 8
Total lost 4st 4

Would love to see 11 and half stone on the scales next week!

I'm down another 2.2 lbs (1 kg) this week.

Total weight loss so far is 81.59 lbs (36.7kg - 5 stone 11 ) My BMI is 33.0 now.

My next small goals are to get to a 6 stone (84 lb) loss and lose 30% of my starting weight. My big goal now is to get to a 100 lbs loss (currently I'm 192.0, I started at 273.59) and getting my BMI down to "overweight: (under 30.)

Seeing bariatric team tomorrow and I'm still 128.90kgs, even though we've had a Christmas. I'm looking forward to more loss. :)
I'm considering reintroducing metformin but only under medical advice as its another med on top of so many already. I'll get that discussion double checked, first.
My 2nd priority is my liver.

Well according to the musical scales outside the 7/11 I am exactly 70ks today (154.3lbs). I don't know how accurate they are but they were showing 71.5kg (157.6lbs) on Monday.
But I am taking that, as it brings me to my pre-Xmas figure, around 155lbs. I will celebrate by having a break from my noodle soup diet, and have fish & chips tonight, as it's Friday! :)

OMG!
I weighed even less than my rubbish scales.
I weighed in at 127.00kgs which is great compared to my previous weight in October'18 to be 136.00kgs.
Im delighted.
Maybe the thrush from Dapagliflozin is worth it after all.
I'm delighted and so is bariatric team. I'm now going to be put on the 18wk minimum waiting list...... at last.
Its took 3yrs to get from 139.00kgs with a readded 2st due to Metformin failing me.
Fingers crossed for a continuous loss and no Dapagliflozin derailment.
I was 121kgs early last year so I'd like to storm that weight loss target now.
I'm so happy. :) :) :)

The 7/11 musical scales show 68.8kg today (151.6lbs). That's a loss of almost 3lbs since last week.
Another celebratory fish & chips meal tonight I think! :)
