Fluffy Jen

I think I have 5.5 or 6 cc's in my realize band and don't have good restriction. I was just wondering if this is normal? Thanks!

sorry to say that I can't help either of you, because I am in the same place. I was also banded feb. 09. So far i have lost 60lb. and have about 30lbs. to go. For the last 4-5mo. have have lost and gained the same 6lbs. i have just been eating the wrong foods and I can eat a lot more than I should be able to. I have gotten a little motivation from my sister who was bigger than me, but started taking diet pill 3mo. ago and has now lost 40lb, so we are almost the same size. I just can't let her get smaller than me, that's probably not the best attitude to have, but if it gets the weight off, I'll take it. I am going to start walking with her 4days a week starting next week. Good Luck to both of you and I hope someone responds that can help us all.

I want to join the challenge. As of this morning, my weight is 169. I would like to lose 10lbs. by the 4th.

I know what you mean. I am 1yr 3mo. post op and some times I eat like that and I'm not pregnant. It has gotten really bad lately, it's like I have forgotten everything that I am supposed to be doing. I think I need a fill and for the Dr. to give me all the rules again. I still need to loose 30lbs and I want to start trying for another child in the fall.

I was banded about 15 months ago and so far I have lost 60lbs. I am really happy that I have lost, but I have 30 more pounds to go and I haven't lost any weight in about the last 4 months or so. I just lose and regain the same 6lbs. I know that I probably need and fill and I need to exercise more. Does anyone have any motivational tips that might be helpful? I really want to get these extra pounds gone before my husband and I start trying for our 3rd child, and I want to get back to eating health again so that I don't gain any unnessessary weight when I do get pregnant. Thanks for listening, any tips are appreciated.

Down 2 pounds this week.

Does anyone have any suggestions about what I should do?

I will have had my band for a year the 25th of Feb. and so far I have lost around 50 pounds, is this a normal weight loss for 1 year post op?

Also, I have not lost any weight in about the last 3 or 4 months. I thought I was because I needed a fill, but i got one in Dec. and still no loss. I have been able to eat alot more food than i think I should be able to eat, mostly stress eating, and I have 6.5cc in 10cc band. Should I get another fill?

I know that I have made some bad choices and I could exersice more, but even with that said, I'm just not sure if this is normal.

Any advice would really be appreciated. I have been really down for queit a while now.

I would like to join the challenge also, I would love to lose 30lb by Easter, but with it only being 7 weeks away, I think 15lb. is a little more realistic. Good luck everyone.

Sorry to be updating so late, but I had finals this week. I don't think I have lost any weight this week, but I did get a fill on Wed. so I hope that helps. Good Luck next week and Congratulation to those of you who have made goal already!!!

hi Fluffy Jen, i didnt make it in time to do yur weight lost chanllenge but that was the best idea ever, thats just what i may need to give me help on getting rid of this weight. I'm going to see abt starting one for valentine hopefully so ppl will be interested in doing one with me. do u have any more weight to loose or have u met yur weight goal??

If you start a Valentines Challenge, I would love to join in. I started this challenge and planned to keep up with it really good, but I didn't really think about being in school. I had finals last week and that is why I didn't update. I don't want people to think that I quit on them, so just to be a part of a challenge would be great for me.

I do still have about 30lbs. to go. I would love to be able to get that off by the end of Feb. That will be my 1 year anniversary.

I calculate a total of 78.8 lbs. lost this week. That also includes some people loss for a couple of week, not just one.

Congratulation LollyMoe for making your Christmas goal.

I lost 0.5 lb this week. This is going slower than I thought. I'm so glad I was able to schedule a fill for next week. Maybe that will help. I just don't fill like I have any will power.

I'm really glad to see everyone else doing good and that some have already reached their Christmas goals. That is awesome!!!!

I'll post an update of this weeks progress sometime tomorrow or Wednesday morning. Good Luck Everyone!!!

I did about the same as everyone else this week, no loss, but no gain either. Now I just hope that I can get my self back on track this week. I think I might just do Protein Shakes for a few days. And I definitely need to exercise more.

Good Luck to everyone in the next few week. Total loss reported this week, 17.5 lbs.

I will probably post all the result tomorrow morning or around noon. Hope everyone does well. I don't think I have lost any this week, but I haven't weighed yet to see. I know that there are alot of things I should have done differently this week, so I'm just going to put it behind me and start over, and by that I mean pull the wii fit out of the corner and get off of my butt.

I will post the updated list of weight loss as soon as I get a chance.

Hope Ya'll that had sick family and kids all get well soon!

If I have a ? by your name, I wasn't sure what you wanted your goal to be. Please let me know so that I can add your progress to the list. Thanks for everyones participation.

Congratulations Everyone, together we lost a total 38.3 pounds this week. Keep up the good work.

2.6 lbs. down. Could have been more had I not messed up over the weekend. Good Luck Everyone!!!

Everyone, don't forget to post your weight loss for the week tomorrow, Monday, by 8:00 pm. After 8:00, I will post a list with everyone progress. We will do this every week on Monday until Christmas, then we can all post one on Christmas Day if everyone wants to. Good Luck Everyone!

Hi Everyone,

It's good to see more Feb Bandster. I was banded Feb 25th. So far, I have lost 52lbs, went from a tight size 20 to a comfortable 14. I know I could have lost more if I would just follow all the rules like in the beginning. So, to try and get back on track, I have started a Christmas Weight Loss Challenge. Here is a link if anyone would like to join. http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f178/christmas-weightloss-challenge-105187/.

Lets try to keep in touch.

Ja9rhone - I'm so sorry to hear about your loss. Seeing a councelor to deal with your grieve is a wonderful step to staying focused and on track.

Here is an up dated list of everyone. I hope you all are doing better than I am. I did really good until yesterday. I went to my clinical and our instructor bought us pizza for dinner. I usually can't eat it, but I thought I would give it a try and it went down fine, so I eat 2 slices. Maybe working 12 1/2 hrs. helped work it off.

I just started using my wii fit again yesterday. I'm doing 30 minutes of aerobics and I try to do 30 minutes of the free step at night. You can do the free step and watch your favorite show at the same time. Once I get used to exercising again, I'll probably step it up with some strengh training. I know this isn't really the information that you were looking for, but hopefully it will help some.
