Week 16 Post Op

Well for the last several weeks I had been struggling with my weight loss. It's been due largely to needing a fill and finding the right balance between exercise and food consumption. Well this week I did much better. 3 pounds lost this week! I am down to 386 lbs just 1 pound shy of 100 since my highest weight! So in another week I will be able to celebrate the next milestone.

 

One thing I did to help my weight loss this week was to push myself harder in my exercise. It sounds kind of silly at times but really I pushed myself to give myself a better work out and build up a bigger sweat. Of course continuing the walking on a daily basis as this is how I know I can maintain my weight.

 

I am very happy with this weight loss this week but still look forward to my fill in just a little over a week away now. It will make a big difference for me I know.

I hear you there, Pete. I've not lost as much as you, but I feel the need for a fill. Just a few cc's I think, would put me closer to the sweet spot.

You're right about the exercise, though. I've been neglectful.

Same here! I have a gym in my house, and I still neglect exercise. I am down 37 lbs since my Dec 8 band. Wow, Pete 99lbs?! Incredible!! Congrats=)
