I have beenliving with my bachelor son for the last 3 months after a move from TX to CA. I am finally in my new house and have unpacked. I knew my weight loss wasnt going to set the world on fire but I was curious to see where I was finally. I am down 4 lbs! My diet has been very good except for chocolate and wine, and no exercise. I know what I need to do to improve. I really expected more, but I am happy that I didnt gain. At least I have a starting point to move forward from. We did a costco run and I bought tilapia, sliced chicken breast meat and a whole lot of ground turkey. Also a few bags of romaine/spinach mix. I question how much my having Soup or chili at the hospital cafateria at work has influcned this. My old hospital had many healthy choices. Here they are all high in carbs and fat and the vegetables are all dried out and gross. Thus my choices of soup and chilli. This week I will begin taking my lunch to work. Slow losers uniite! ADDED NOTE: I would like to start walking before work but have not yet found my blow drier? Anyone walk in the am with wet hair? While in TX I had an hour commute. Now it is 8 minutes. I still wake up at the same time and would like to make it productive time.

I also just voted for you.

Sorry for typos . I ammonia an iphOne.

I moved from Tx to Ca this quarter and have been living with my sonmand started a new job. finally after 3months i have bought a house and am moving this weekend. I have not eaten as I should some of the time and my weight loss has suffered. Beginning tomorrow I have no excuse but to eat right and especially exercise. My commute used to be an hour. Now it is 8 minutes. I have no excuse to skip exercising.

If you go out to eat just order water. It is free and nobody questions that you didn't order anything or drink anything. Plus you have it invade you have a need to wash something down.

My son took me to have my surgery in Dallas where I lived. I moved back to our home town in ca where my other sons are. My ex husbands brother stopped me on the street and asked howy weight loss was going. I was so ticked off. I know theyeant well but why shouldy ex brother in law that I haven't seen in 20yrs know? The son who Tooke to surgery was deployed to Kuwait the week following my surgery so I ble it on the ex. Very frustrating

Sorry.duplicate

I weighed in today with a 3 lb weight gain for the last month. Prior to this I lost 6 lbs over 2 weeks. I am naturally disappointed but I was not perfect. How do you regroup after a disappointing weigh in? Me? Imam having wine tonight and will regroup for the next 6week weigh in.

How about boxing even if you do it to music. Borring maybe but you can really get your heart rate up.

I interviewed for a job last July and just started the job in Debussy one of the people I interviewed with said she could see the difference in my face fro Then until now. I still have my old work badge and compared the picture with the new one and I was pleasantly surprised by the difference.

We must be weight twins! I weigh in next Thursday and am hoping to break 300'too. Good luck and keep up the good work

Dannon plain yoghurt 6 days a week. Sunday is a treat and I have eggs!

I ended up not getting fills from him as I moved to California.

At first I thought my boobs were getting bigger but I remembered that I wasn't getting raw skinninder my bra. It dawned on me that my stomach is losing weigh t faster than my breasts are!!

I have read about the same thing on the board but have never experienced it myself. Read old posts and you will find them.

I have 7cc in a 14cc band.I had 8 before Nd it was too much.I keep amfood Journal and am eating 1100-1200cal/day. My surgeon says I should only expect to lose 1 lb per week but thAt is crazy at my size. I just moved to a rural county and had to get a new doc.I am not crazy about him but he is the only one in a 50 mile radius and on my insurance. There are no nutritionists here either.

I just feel that at my size I should be losing faster. I keepy carve below 50gms and exercise 3x/week walking the treadmill for 40 minutes. I assumed i would be a Slow Loser but I need progress as I am discouraged.

I just moved and started a new job at a local hospital. The lap band doctor's office is in the next building over. I always wondered if I would run into him at the hospital.' Well, today I was in the cafeteria trying to decide if I wanted the lovely chocolate chip Cookies or get 4oz of chicken salad. I made the right decision and got the chicken. As I was leaving the cafeteria I run into my doc!! I wanted to show him I made the right decision but decided not to. He said hello and that was that. If I had got the cookies I feel certain that would be the day he would ask me what I was eating!! It is nice not to feel guilty.

I have lost 36lbs and still wear the same size. I would have thought I would be a size smaller by now. I wear a size 26 pants and have room in them now. I went to the store to buy smaller ones and found I dont fit in a 24. I pulled a 26 from the rack and tried them on. They fit fine, so I realized I must have stretched them out over time. I have lost 10% of my body weight which is a decent amount. Can someone my size give me an idea when they dropped a size?

Add me to the missing Betsy list.
