Lisaholland73 I live in Vegas!! Dress for heat 'cause it's sweltering!! I'll be heading up north next week where it's a bit cooler!

Last weigh in: 501.6 lbs Today's weigh in: 494 lbs!! Down 6 lbs!!! And surpassed goal!!!

I started my banded adventure in the beginning of April. At the time I was 545lbs...Then the weight started coming off...until... After nearly two weeks of teetering on 501.6-503.4lbs, I stood upon the scale today and my mind was blown. Today I weighed in at 498lbs!!!! The 5-- is gone!!! Let's hope I can get that 4-- to a 3-- in a year!!!

Update: went to gym and re-weighed @ 501.6!!!!!!

505lbs up 3lbs, but not discouraged!! My pants are looser, and I'm gaining muscle because of the gym. I get a fill on Tuesday, as well. Staying positive!!!

I would make an appointment for as soon as you can and say you a fill. My doc does a standard six weeks out but also says that if I need a fill before to schedule another appointment for a sooner time and date. I have a fill scheduled in two weeks but noticed my restriction is less since my last, so I scheduled a sooner one and kept my original schedule so I now have two in case the early fill isn't enough.

Way to go!!!

Sorry this is late! Checking in at 502- down 4lbs!!

I live in Las Vegas, NV where we're rockin' triple digits!! I still walk two miles a day and have started weight training three times a week. I'm feeling sore, but in a good way!! Just trying to keep positive and stay out of bad habits. Las Vegas is a city of excess and I plan on being strong and taking everything in moderation!! So far so good!!

I know it's hot out there, but remember to get up and get moving!!!

I have lost 38lbs since April 2nd!!! All diet, very little excercise (I walk two miles a day, five days a week.). That's going to change, though!! Gym starts soon!!!

I had my first fill today. Aside from the privk of the needle, I didn't feel a thing!! I was nervous, too, but it's a piece of cake! Mmmm cake.....

So Monday's are my actual "Weight Days" so I hopped on and....DOWN TWO MORE POUNDS!! Makes it -34lbs since April 2nd!! I can start at the gym again, so I'm excited about that!! I walk over two miles a day, 5 days a week, so cardio is good, but I want that Iron pumping feeling!!! I cannot wait to hit the weights, and lose...weight!!! Ha!! Exciting times ahead!!! I'm aware of the dreaded plateau, so I know not to get discouraged. It'll pass; just gotta work hard!! Put your shoulder to the wheel, push along!!
