*sigh* I gained 2 lbs this week. Big surprise I am late logging in. It was nice to have a big loss last week, but disappointing that I can so quickly jump back into bad habits, thinking I can "get away with it". Oh well, it's a process (long process) and we're making baby steps, right? I'm 64 lbs less than when I went to that first lap band info meeting, so that's something I have to keep reminding myself.

JayTee! You are a big part of what keeps me on track! We're almost neck-and-neck throughout (although you're always just a bit ahead). :biggrin: You're highest was 328, mine was 327. We both lost about 30 lbs before surgery and are currently just two pounds apart. A challenge helps give us a short-term goal to work toward, because too often the big goal gets blurry throughout the ups and downs. Please don't be discouraged, but congratulate yourself that you've done this great so far! Remember that others may be seeing your progress as encouragement to keep pushing!

Dang! It was a good feeling to finally update my "ticker" after 3 weeks of no movement! I am happy to say I'm down to 261 lbs! I have to say it's not because I am feeling an restriction ... just that I've been getting back to basics and not going out to eat and drinking wine in excess. These last few weeks of "celebrating" ... end-of-the-school-year parties, grad parties, etc. have really slowed down the weight loss. I go back for another fill on Monday, and I keep hoping that "this time" I will actually feel some restriction! Good luck everyone!

Awesome! Congrats Lingling! You go girl! Keep it up "team"!

Ughhhh! I'm standing steady at 267lbs. I now have 5.5cc's but still don't feel the restriction, except for one time when I ate SUPER fast and almost lost it. Just "keep on swimming", I guess! :thumbdown: Kaner

Thanks for the encouragement and positive feedback. I didn't realize how much I needed it. So for all of you who are feeling especially discouraged, "just keep on swimming" (Find Nemo) and stay focused on the goal ... healthy living! I was down & up this week and finally ended up back at *sigh* 267lbs. So no loss for me this week, but at least there was no gain ... right? Just keep hoppin' my fellow bunnies! Kaner

Happy Friday everyone! My weight today is 275lbs. I had my very first fill yesterday and am excited to see what kind of change it makes in battling the hunger! I'm back to liquids for a couple of days, because of the fill. Wish me luck!
