Oh, so sorry to hear about your friend. What a time you've had.

Today is vlcd 15 for me, and I was down another pound. That's 14 total for me, including load. I cringe to tell you though that I would be farther along but I really screwed up over new years. I cost myself six days and had to re lose 7 pounds. . How are you doing, what are your losses so far? I am alot heavier than you, so that's probably why I have lost a little more. Your getting down there!

My losses are picking up finally, I've lost 3 lbs from start weight, and 8 lbs from load weight on day 10, still not great, but hope it keeps up. I had been on the pellets but have changed back to the drops.

I know with me, I hate that I have to add on load weight. It's like punishment having to lose it before you start making progress again. I know it's for the right reason, but it's still a kick in the butt. Your doing great!

My husband and I prayed for you concerning your loss. So sorry. May the God of all comfort, comfort you in your time of need. Read this, 2 Corinthians 1:3-7 AMP Version. This is what I have to offer you.

Hi Girls and Tex, I'm back. Didn't have this page book marked on my new computer, and my old one went back to college with the BF's daughter. Long story, need Tex here to do some patrolling/investigating.

I don't know where to start.

Turtle, Bighorn, look at where you are in your ideal weight - its gonna be a struggle at this point down, you will go up, down, up, down. Hang tight.

Bighorn, prayers your way on your friend.

Not much else to say, I'm healing from my surgery on the 4th - ready to get back to doing normal things, but know it's not happening for another 4 weeks. I should be able to go back to work next week though, so better than sitting at home being bored. Me, I am now 5 lbs over LIW from my last round, was more like 10 for a while, but figured that would happen with the water weight, and IV's from surgery, not complaining to much, its coming off slowly, starting to eat right again, that helps.

I know Tex has been very busy with work and hunting, so hopefully he'll get back on and check in with everyone.

Ya'll are doing great, keep up the great losses.

Glad you are back and your surgery went well. 5 lbs isn't bad considering surgery and winter.


I switched back to drops instead of pellets and my losses have picked up some. As of today I've lost 60 lbs in 111 days of actual p2 which were broken up by the other phases and interuptions. Which still averages .54 so makes me feel better about my awuful averages lately. Maybe since I don't have anymore set points I won't have as hard of a time, but I'm not holding my breath.

Oh Turtle, your doing awesome, 60 lbs, and kept it off, you should be doing a big time happy dance. Look at you, you are so close to your goal - remember Sunlover, how hard her last 10 lbs were. She did it, but with lots of ups and downs that last round, so can you, stick with it!!
