Just thougt i would share this. I went for my first weigh in/check up. I have to go every two weeks. 2 weeks ago i was 312 on there scale and today it said 293. Thats 19 lbs! My scale at home (with out shoes on) had me at 285 just a few min ago. So 19-27 lb lost. I am so excited. 40 lbs is my short term goal.

MEN! hehe...just kidding. Congrats! That is a huge loss, great job. Whats your secret, other than being male? lol

Congrats on the weight loss! that's fantastic. You might want to keep track of your scale vs. theres I now mine at home is always different and it throws you off... especially if yours is lower. You don't want to be disappointed. so just remember that yours was 7 pounds less today, see if it's similar next time.

Also, definitely take some potassium and stay on the water, when we lost weight rapidly our body doesn't get enough potassium! Congrats again, that's fabulous, yay for you!

That's AWESOME!! You're off to a great start! Def. keep track of what your scale and the dr's scale says...my dr's scale is 5lbs heavier than mine at home. My dr. told me to go by mine as to my actual weight because I don't have 100 people a day weighing on mine.

CONGRATS!!!! That's an GREAT loss!!

Thanks everyone.. I kind of felt bad for the medical assistant. He is the normal MA for the office. The day we got first weighed ,there was some other lady ma. I got on the scale and adjusted it (Up till i Feb of this yr i was a MA) to 312. Finds out she wrote down 265 on my chart for my weight. She wrote the 312 down on my wifes chart. She was close to that but thats not her weight. I write my weight down. Leason learned. Write your weight down.
