I bought it too for the wii but it got to a point where it just stopped registering my arm movements. So i think its going back.

I'm currently experiencing the same exact thing. One moment I feel like I need a fill and the next I can't even drink Water. However, mine is usually triggered by Aunt Flo (that time of the month.) I'm about 14 months out have had about 3 or 4 emergency unfills and susequent re-fills due to this. I had an X-ray done 2 months ago that revealed everything was fine. My doc just said that the band can sometimes have a mind of its own. This is soooo...frustrating.

I have between 10 and 11 cc in my 14 cc band currently. This is generally very good restriction for me. However, during TTM (that time of the month) I get so resticted I'm forced to go on a liquid diet. Otherwise, if I eat beyond a cup of food its all coming back up. One thing I do notice is that right after a workout I'm able to eat and drink pretty freely. I workout everyday and everyday is the same. I'm not sure why that is. I can chug a gallon of water without any consequences during a good cardio workout but I wouldn't dare try it any other time. Any one else experience this?

I know 62 lbs is alot to lose in the next 4 months but I will try my best!!!

Down 6 so far! 19 more to go!:thumbup:

I'm in! Sept 25th will be my 1 yr bandiversary. So I'd like to get as close to my goal of 170 lbs as possible. :sneaky: I'm currently 253 as of this morning (down 106 from my highest of 359.) I'm going for -25 by labor day!!! :wink:

Hey Kel, Looks like we had the same start weight and are aiming to lose the same amount of weight. Congrats on your success! What would you say has helped you the most?

Hey bandster buddies! Sorry for playing Casper the friendly ghost for so long. But I’m pleased to announce that I am officially down 103 lbs! I’m sitting pretty at 256 (BMI 37.9) as of this morning with 86.5 more lbs til goal. Might I remind you I started this journey at a miserable 359 lbs (BMI 53). One of my short-term goals was to be 240’s-ish by Memorial day which is only less than 1 week away but I’m happy regardless of whether I make that or not. I’ll be flying to ATL that weekend to see family I haven’t seen in a while so I know they’ll be shocked to see the smaller me. I’ve been getting compliments left and right. I think the funniest ones come from my co-workers. One of men in my office just stared at me with a confused look on his face one day and said, “you’re a lot skinnier these days.” From others I get, “you’re wasting away!” One of my co-workers (who has had much gradual weight loss success herself through weight watchers) actually guessed my weight to be 210 lbs. I said “I wish, but not yet!” Guess I can attribute that to all the hours I’ve put in weight training. Pics soon to come...

But I love that show I never miss a beat!!

Well Oprah did a show (a just saw a clip not the whole show) bringing back some of the past contestants including season 2's BL Matt. He had gained back almost all his weight. His runner-up Sussie (who he married) was not as buff as she was when she left the ranch.
