Thank you! We share a birthday....Happy belated birthday to you! Congratulations on the 8.5 lbs. That's great.

By the way... anyone notice my weight loss ticker at the the half-way mark? Yippee!

Finally finished plateauing. I'm down almost 5 lbs. this week after a two-week stall. Pete - Best of luck to you. I hate to hear that you're going through a rough time. You're always lifting all of us.... What are we? Holiday Hotties? up from them. Those are the types of stressors that can not only sabotage our progress, but put lots of weight back on. It looks like you are still managing okay, though, so horray for you!

Thanks China and Sue. This sure is a roller coaster of a process, isn't it? I did make the 3 lb. loss this week. Five more pounds to go and I'll be at the halfway mark! I guess that's my goal for July... to hit the halfway mark.

I forgot to check in last week. I lost 1 lb. I do my official weigh ins on Fridays. It looks like I may have 3 lbs. to report tomorrow... if I drop .2 lbs. I'm glad I'm finally hitting my stride. I'm sure I'll plateau for a bit soon, but hopefully I'll keep on working through it.

Woo Freakin' Hoo! I'm down 5 lbs. from last week. *Happy Dance* I got a small fill yesterday, too. .75 ccs.

Thanks Pete. I'm glad to see you still on the board... and still losing and encouraging your fellow "losers." You're doing fantastic.

I'm down 3 lbs. from last week! The scale is finally beginning to move again. I've scheduled an appt. and will hopefully get a fill on Thursday. I've had 3 and am at 5.5 cc's so far. I don't have any restriction at all. Anyone else experiencing this with that much fill?

It's four months later and I'm finally back and down one pound. It's only one pound, but it signifies my moving in the right direction again. I've been taking a doctor-recommended hiatus from concentrating on the weight loss -no more fills :thumbdown: - to concentrate on trauma therapy that I started in December. It's hard to post that, but I wanted to share that the benefits are proving to be phenomenal. I'm not a therapy-type person and only started going per the surgeon's requirement, but how incredibly "freeing" I'm finding it to work past issues that I had no idea were weighing me down. Yes... literally! Hopefully, I'll have more lost pounds to post again soon.

No weight loss for me for the past two weeks. *sigh* My appetite is back with a vengeance. I did finally get my first fill (3 ccs) last week. Not much difference yet. I have another one scheduled for March 12th. Hopefully after another fill or two, I'll have much more control. I'm gunning for at least one pound to report next week!
