Nervous about my doctors appt @ 10:15

by lori0615, Apr 06, 2009 09:29AM
I am nervous about my weigh in, it seems that I have lost 10-12 pounds since the last time I saw her which was about 6 weeks ago.

But you never know when it comes to the doctors scale.

Don't worry even if the scale doesn't agree with you most people can see that you are losing weight.

by Barb135, Apr 06, 2009 12:37PM
By now you've been there and know the outcome.  Just want you to be aware - my doctor's scales are anywhere from 5-8 pounds MORE than mine so even though they write down what's on THEIR scale, I don't go by it.  They won't even let me take my shoes off and some even tell me I don't need to set my purse down.  Come on, give me a break!!  

Keep working at it.  You can do it.  

by twehner5, Apr 06, 2009 01:29PM
Go in with a big over coat on without anything on under it.  Drop the overcoat QUICK before you step on the scale.  

What?  Am I in trouble AGAIN?  In the corner???  BYE!  

I was JUST KIDDING!!!

GOOD LUCK!  I hope you lost 15 POUNDS !!!

by twehner5, Apr 06, 2009 01:37PM
BTW, I stole that answer from Barb135!

You just SO did NOT get that idea from me - I would never even THINK such a thing, let alone post it...........  Yes, in the corner AGAIN and stay there until you learn to be nice, young lady........  

Hope you guys have realize that twehner's a laugh a minute - oh what a twisted mind...  lol.  And she really DOES steal my answers....only the GOOD ones though.  

Good luck lori.  

by lori0615, Apr 06, 2009 03:29PM
Well I'm back, I lost 8 pounds in one month and a total of almost 50 pounds since 9/11/08 till now. She seemed very happy with me.

I also declined fertility drugs to get pregnant till June.

by Lonelymom, Apr 06, 2009 03:35PM
Well Congratulations!!!

by Ranaesheart, Apr 06, 2009 03:44PM
Best wishes, Lori .. know the scale will be down although it may not be equal to the scales you have at home.  However ... just know that YOUR scale ... the one you are weighing on throughout your journey ... is the ONE that matters!!!  It is the one that shows you are consistently losing so don't let the doctor's scale be that big of a deal.  

Now twehner5 ... I must tell you, I would never have thought of that either ... but I must it has certainly planted an idea in my head for the next time I go.  After all, that is how I weigh each morning .. that way I am very well aware of my actual weight since it doesn't fluctuate by what I am wearing.

You can come out of the corner now .. lolll

Congratulations.  Knew you could do it.  

Wow - 50 lbs total - that's awesome.  

Ranae - PLEASE do stop encouraging twehner5.  lol  Of course, now that it's turned out to be a GOOD idea, I'm sure she really did steal it from MY computer..  lol

But I guess we'd all have to admit we might have the "wheels turning".  I know next time *I* go, I'm going to make sure I wear the lightest clothes I can get away with and leave everything else in the car....  

Lori,  keep up the good work.  

by lori0615, Apr 06, 2009 04:06PM
Ha Ha. her scale is about 5 pounds heavier.

by Ranaesheart, Apr 06, 2009 06:26PM
Lori ~ So very PROUD of YOUUUUU!!!!  Doing the ***Happy Dance*** for you!  Awesome job, lady, Awesome!!!

Barb - Now you know my job is to keep encouraging twehner .. and then you ... and then her ... he heee heee ... I'm the instigator!  You two really make me laugh and I like to see you keep going .. :)

BTW - my doctor's scale is 5 lbs heavier too ... think it's a conspiracy!  LOLLLL

by twehner5, Apr 06, 2009 07:04PM
GO, LORI; GO, LORI!

Nanny-nanny-boo-boo!  Hahahahaha!  I'm out of the corner!

I wear the lightest clothes possible AND slip-on shoes.  I don't ask if I can take them off, I "just do it".  As for my purse?  YUP!  I set it down!  I'm a rebel.  

I'm thinking about shavin' my head for my NEXT weigh-in !  What do ya think?

by Lonelymom, Apr 07, 2009 08:37AM
twener: I think shaving your head is a little extreme. I do the same when going to the doctor. Which is something I haven't done since last September. Maybe I should go for a check up.

by Barb135, Apr 07, 2009 10:59AM
Alright Ranae - you asked for it.........................

I usually end up going to the doctor either during or just after my work day and because I have to wear a certain type of uniform, there's only SO much I shed when I get there.  

Lonelymom - take a look at twehner's pics - she has a LOT of hair, maybe would be a good idea to shave her head - but only so long as she posts pics of THAT as well.  Huh, twehner??  

by Lonelymom, Apr 07, 2009 01:12PM
Barb: LOL still wouldn't like to see her bold.

by Barb135, Apr 07, 2009 01:17PM
Awww come on - where's your spirit of adventure??  lol

by Lonelymom, Apr 07, 2009 01:32PM
Ok shave your head. Twener. Barb is right my spirit of adventure is gone. I have to get it back.

by twehner5, Apr 07, 2009 01:43PM
Dare me???

by Lonelymom, Apr 07, 2009 01:47PM
I dare you!!!

But I may join you in the clown girl business I can't join you in this. lol

by twehner5, Apr 07, 2009 01:55PM
Sorry, AIN'T happenin' !!!!

Barb is hi-jacking my computer.  This is the first time I've seen this post!  

WHAT?  An overcoat?  What?  She's-got-to-be-kidding!

I'll shave HER head!

by Lonelymom, Apr 07, 2009 02:02PM
AH Dang I had my hopes up and all.


Barb you really shouldn't trick people like that. GO TO THE CORNER!!

LOL

by twehner5, Apr 07, 2009 02:10PM
Yeah, Barb.  GO TO THE CORNER.  NOW!!!

Thanks, Lonelymom.  She is MEAN to me.

Where's Lori?  

by Barb135, Apr 08, 2009 05:37AM
lonelymom - what kind of traitor ARE you anyway???   Geesh - some people just CAN'T be trusted, can they???  Hey - you can't send ME to the corner.......  

twehner - don't MAKE me come up there.......   I'm going to have to wash your mouth (er, fingers) with soap if you keep lying like that.......

Lori - help ME, not HER.  

by lori0615, Apr 08, 2009 09:07AM
Ok Barb I am here to help you.

by Lonelymom, Apr 08, 2009 09:16AM
Barb: Where you not the one on Twener's computer typing about shaving her head? Have I been fooled again?????


Twener: I am getting very confused here. Are you lieing to me?? Do you need to get your fingers washed out with soap?

lori: help me decide who is right and who is lieing to me!!!

Renae: Straigten these girls out!!

by lori0615, Apr 08, 2009 09:24AM
Ha ha, you guys are too much for me.

by Barb135, Apr 08, 2009 10:17AM
Man, lori, am *I* ever glad you got here to help me........  

lonelymom - you really DO have to careful of twehner - she'll blame ME for everything if she gets a chance.  Just don't believe her anymore...... OK?  Promise?  

twehner5 - where'd you go?  Huh?  Got ya scared now, don't I?  

by Lonelymom, Apr 08, 2009 10:26AM
Barb--Ok I promise. I am on your side now. That twehner is something else!


LMAO!!!

by lori0615, Apr 08, 2009 11:01AM
run twehner5 run.   Barb will get you and put you back in the corner. =)

by Lonelymom, Apr 08, 2009 11:10AM
Hey lori what's up??? You aren't supposed to be helping twener she is the bad one.

See Barb I am not the only traitor here. I think twener has some kind of magical powers over us making us help her. Don't worry she can't affect me any more.

by lori0615, Apr 08, 2009 11:19AM
No I am really helping barb, See my telling twener to run it forces barb to run after her helping with her weight lose.

See lonelymom it's all part of my plan.

by Lonelymom, Apr 08, 2009 11:25AM
AH HAH!!!

I see now. Smart plan but shhhhh don't tell them....

by lori0615, Apr 08, 2009 11:31AM
Man this is so great. I'm at work and really enjoying myself right now.

by Lonelymom, Apr 08, 2009 11:52AM
So am I!

I love to chat on here while I am working. Believe me I still get plenty done at work as well.
