Ok, get a grip Jax! On a good, fun note, my 80 year old father was the proud owner of a Wii that I seem to have inherited. I bought a Wii Fit and this morning watched as my Mii went from this skinny little thing to a "plumper" version when I was weighed! How funny was that? Not very actually but I suppose it really is funny.
I was not happy about the weight on the Wii as it was 2.4 lbs higher than my bathroom scale with the same clothes on. I am convinced it has to do with the rug its on but whatever. It is what it is and as long as it goes down I will be fine. I am only showing a 2.5 lb loss during the past 4 weeks and while I know why its only a 2.5 lb loss, its still making me crazy. I feel like I wasted the last 4 weeks with my band. Monday is my 2nd fill and I pray that will zap me back into form!
I had cottage cheese for breakfast today and plan on having some turkey salad for lunch. Bread AND chips are definitely on the DO NOT EAT LIST which is probably not a bad thing! For dinner I will be having some lean steak on the grill (hopefully) and some spinach. I may have a protein shake if I feel like a need a little something for a snack. I am really going to be watching my calories and making sure I get my protein it. I know that these two things are the reason why my scale has not been so nice to me lately. Oh, and let me not forget, WATER, WATER and more WATER!
I am keeping my fingers crossed that I can see a little more movement on the scale between now and Monday at 2 pm!

How special that you're able to use the same Wii that your father did. Don't let the scale get you down. With what you've been through over the past month, I'm impressed that you gained only 2 lbs. That's nothing and will likely be gone within a couple days of your well thought out program.
Have a great weekend doll.
First, you're doing great. Secondly, I'm so sorry...I know that you will be able to have tearless days, but right now, the tears are what you need, so let them flow. Big hug and lot's of love!
Oh sweetie - I wish I could make all your hurt go away....I'm so so sorry your heart is broken...be well.
What a special memento of your Dad to get on that Wii everyday and think of him in a positive light. Dang that scale though!
What helped me lose some weight was keeping track of my calories. I know it's not fun but it is enlightening if you haven't done it in a while. I notice when I don't do it I don't lose so there must be something to it. I use myfitnesspal app on my iphone. You can also log exercise.
Honestly after all you have been through, I saw screw what the scale says and know that after your appointment on Monday, you can start fresh! Have fun on the Wii!!!
You are doing wonderfully with all you have been thru the past few weeks. It is nice that you had time with the girls. I do not have a Wii, but it does sound fun. Definitely attribute the 2.5 lbs. to the rug. :)
I think you are doing great - crying is part of healing.
As far as the Wii fit - I hate when my Mii swells up and it says you're obese. Uggh...
Don't worry that plump wii girl will shirnk in no time!! Then you will just get old :)...I am way older in wii years than real life years (no sense of balance.
I hope you start to feel better soon. I will always hurt i suspect but will soften over time and be replaces by a sense of comfort when you think about him. Hug.
(((HUGS))) it will take time but you will soon start to heal from this huge tragedy. I think you are so strong!
I am so very sorry to hear what has happened. And I am even more sorry that I did not read about it until today :-(
What a nightmare! {{{{Hugs}}}}
I hope you have wonderful people around you that help you heal!
It takes time... My father in law was killed in a car accident 10 months ago and it is still hard for me and my husband to accept.
Wishing you best of luck, lots of love, lots of support and hopefully many happy moments in the near future!
Hey Jacquie...great to see a few posts from you...I think it must be perfectly natural for you to still be gruieving and don't be so hard on yourself about the weight loss...you still lost 2.5 lbs after going what you went through...imagine if you didn't have the band how much you might of eaten. I am glad your girls will be back on July 4...it is something to look forward to. Take care
