No, I'm not talking about a heart! My new weight loss/BMI ticker has made its debut! With Jens help, I figured out how to install it here.
So, what does this mean? Well, I am like many of you and I am a daily weigher kind of girl. If I don't so this, it is the old, "out of sight out of mind" kind of thing. I will not start working it until the day of surgery and if I gain or lose between now and then, I will change it to accurately reflect my starting weight/BMI. However, once I am banded, while I will continue to weigh myself every day, I will not be changing my ticker every day. Heavens no! I am going to pick a day of the week to be my weigh in day and I will change the ticker to reflect that number. Lets pray its going south!
I'm even contemplating having DH do the weekly weigh in, kind of like at Weight Watchers, ya know? This is HUGE for me, no pun intended, as he does not know what I weigh now! I promised him that I would disclose all when I have the surgery. Until then, he is on a need to know basis. He is my #1 supporter and fell in love with the "fat me" so I know he won't have a problem with the # on the scale. That problem is and always has been mine!
Thanks again to Jen for helping out an old lady!

Hi! I just started following your blog. I am also getting banded on March 24th!! Best of luck!!
They look great!
My husband doesn't know how much I weigh, but I would think he kinda has to know because he knows how tall I am and my BMI, so not that hard to figure out. I don't think he's bothered to think about it though, which works for me because I weight almost as him - and I'm 4 inches shorter. Yikes!
LOL Bonnie! My husband doesn't understand the whole BMI thing so I know he can't figure it out! I'm 6 inches shorter than Steve and I weigh more than him!
Funny bc my husband didn't know how much I weighed until the day I had lapband surgery...the anesthesiologist came in the room and said "Hi, you weigh...." right in front of my DH and I was mortified. 11 years together and this was the first time he knew how much I weighed! Good for you doing the daily weigh-- just be careful that it's not a de-motivator becuase our weight does change daily with our cycles,etc.
My husband has an idea but I hate him looking too
