Aquarius here, I'm a February baby!

I've been searching for 199, for forever it feels like. And have even put off getting a pedicure feeling as if this would jinx me and keep the scale at 201 like it has been for awhile. Well, this morning I get on the scale with my ugly unpedicured feet and what did the scale say? 198.5! I came back to bed kind of not believeing it but told my sleeping boyfriend....and he got more excited than I did and made me go upstairs and get the camera to document it. I was actually scared getting back on, thinking it would be back up to 200+ like the scale was just playing mean tricks on me, lol. :clap2: So that's a 104.5 weight loss and my bmi says I am no longer obese, woohoo!:clap2:

C 202 (-101 lbs total, -0 this week) No changes to make

On Sunday I was down to 200...but this morning saw 202 again, ugh!

Changed for ya Tricia! I'm not going to get on the scale until Monday, hopefully its a good suprise.

IM IN!!!!! 202 this morning. 200 on Monday? I'll be kicking some ass to get there!

And BTW, Thanks for all the congrats....it helps coming here when I'm down. Makes me feel better and help get back on track.

WooHoo...even after my little pig out I lost another pound this morning. 101 gone for good, I'm almost seeing 199.

100 pounds gone as of yesterday!!!! Started at 303 and now Im at 203...I just wanna see 199!!

THANKS!!! I did a little happy dance when I saw the number too! Too bad I snacked all day yesterday and did some emotional eating late last night. Feel like I gained 100 pounds back just from last night. UGH. But thank you all. Yesterday morning was very nice, just wish the rest of tghe day would have stayed that way.

C 203 (-100 total, -4 this week) WOOHOO!!!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Christmas! I come from a huge family so on average we have 4-5 family Christmas parties. We have to rent out a hall for one because that side is so big. But I just love seeing all my family, some you only get to see once or twice a year. Making fun of our Aunts and Uncles as they sing Christmas Carols and try to get us to join in. I used to be so worried that it wouldn't be the same once I was banded, because in our family a lot of the celebration is the food. But it turned out it didnt bother me at all. And I love the fact that I lose weight over the holidays while veryone else complains about gaining. I hadn't thought about making a goal, but I would like to be at 170 for Christmas, and I am starting at 204 this morning. I hope we all can get to our goals!!

Yeah, i should prolly get a pedi done, but 199 feels just so far away. WooHoo, spent a couple hours at the gym tonight though, maybe that will help some. We will see what Wednesday brings.

I started out at 44.7 and today I am at 30. Just one more pound and I will not longer be "obese" WooHoo! I am 2+ years out, was there actually another thread made for people who have been banded over 2 years?

I WISH!!!!:biggrin1:

Trica, I love the new AV! I bought a Wonder Woman Tshirt at Walmart the other day and it made me think of you, hehe. Telly, 175? Girl you are amazing! I'm so proud of you!:clap2: Amy, I am so excited to watch your journey now that you are banded. You get me excited to kick start mine again too.

I got my band 2 years ago when I was 18. It was the best thing to ever happen to me. I didn't want to spend the rest of my life struggling over my weight and being unhealthy and sick. Now I have the rest of my life to be healthy and happy! Here's a link of a thread I started on my 2 year anniversary, let you know you how the band changed my life. http://www.lapbandtalk.com/showthread.php?t=19328

I'm down two more pounds this morning. So now I am thinking about giving it two weeks, try getting in more water and hit the gym more before i get the fill. I can't believe I'm getting so close to onederland and hitting my -100 mark. Telly, if you feel like you should get the fill, do it. I also waited months before my first one and I got it when the weight was noticibly starting to slow up and it gave me a huge boost. Lins, I LOVE that dress! You are looking great! I have a high school friends wedding at the end of the month and will see people who havent seen me since my highest 303. I'm excited to show up in my "little" black dress. Living back in my hometown I have already sen some old friends at parties and t feels nice having all the guys who were just friends in high school telling me I was looking so great:biggrin1:

I used to lie lie lie, on my license I think it says 180? And at the time I was prolly more like 280. But now, it feels like EVERYONE knows my current and highest weight. And it feels good. For me, it was really hard for me to tell my dad. The first few times he asked I would say 200 something, or just, "a lot, that's all you need to know" but now, he along with all my family know my highest was 303 and I'm at 207. That's 96 pounds down and I am damn proud of it.

For me I know it's time for a fill. Food wise I can eat quite a bit. I have heard on here that if you can eat a whole chicken breast you need a fill, I thought about that as I got done with my whole chicken breast and was still not full at a fourth of July party this month.

WOW WOW WOW!!! I am so happy for you. To get up and realizyou are DONE. I am so that is a great feeling. I hope to get there soon, you are looking SO amazing. And I really love that dress!

I'm thinking about getting a fill also Heather. The last month I have been going up and down between 207-210. Getting hungry faster and eating more. It just feels strange, only having two fills in two years, but now it feels like I need another one after only 3 months.

LOL, you are crazy P'nut!!

Amy and Sherri, I'm so happy ya'll are in bandland and doing well!! Here's my weekly update C 207 (-96 total, -1 this week)

C-208 (-95 total, -0) I'm staying the same again this week. During the week I would get down to 207 but this morning it was back up to 208, oh well.
