I was 180.2 this morning and my first mini-goal, if you will, is 178. Why 178 you ask? Well, I'll tell you. Don't ask me why I remember this but, the morning after my daughter Mallory's Sweet 16 party that is what I weighed. I was slowly losing weight due to the fact that I was in the early stages of filing for divorce (Nov. 2002) and I just know that I had not seen that number in a long time. If my memory serves me correctly, I didn't see it ever again either as before long, I steadily gained until I hit an all-time high of 234! I lost about 30 lbs. on WW but I was never able to get out of the 200's until now. What a great feeling!
As most of you know, I have been having major problems with tightness/PB'ing for a few weeks now. Due to my doctor being out of the country and my not wanting to see his standby guy coupled with the fact that the tightness was coming and going for the first 2 weeks, I chose to stick it out. Well, of course when I went to NY for a week all hell broke loose and it is at the point where I can only drink liquids and very slowly at that! No wonder I've lost weight this past week, right?
My appt. is tomorrow morning and I am praying that a slight unfill or maybe more than slight is all that is needed. Of course I am thinking worst case scenario's but that is me...you know the type...I get a headache and it has to be a brain tumor?
I will let you all know the outcome of my appt. tomorrow.

Congratulations Jacquie! I am sure there is nothing serious going on with your band. Please let us know!
Wow on the weight loss. Hope you get some releif, I'm axious to hear the details.
Kudos on the loss!!! You are doing great!
I hope you get relief without losing too much restriction :)
cognrats on the new number.. but here's wishing you some tightness relief.. it really stinks if you can't eat at all.. liquids only satisfy you so much..
I am a worst case scenario thinker too.. and I actually did tell the doctor I thought I had a brain tumor (fortunately he knows I am already nuts).. hang in there help is on the way
I hope you start feeling better soon!!! Sorry I have been MIA lately, but my shcedule has been so crazy. I go see Dr. D next Monday, but I think I am now at my sweet spot! Keep us updated!
Congrats on reaching your goal! It's amazing what seeing a number will do...I have a similar story with the number 177 - the last "lower" weight I remember and that was a LONG time ago. Hope the next unfill helps...I may be right behind you on that!
Woo Hoo!!
Way to go!!!!
Congrats on your minnie goal but I do hope you find some relief after tomorrow's appt.
Good luck Gumdrop.
Oh, YAY! That was a big moment for me too!
