No Foolin - Its an April Fool's day Challenge



Recommended Posts

I'm in, I am aiming for 20lbs. I am at a stand still and need a challenge to get me on my game. I am so disappointed that I have not lost in 3 weeks!:sad: I got a fill on 2/9 but it was only 0.9cc because I had lost an average of 3 lbs. per week. I need to get this weight loss restarted. I didn't really suffer from bandster hell :crying:the first 6 weeks, so I think I am there now! I am down to a 22 from a 24, but I want to be a 20!LOL! Good luck guys:):w00t:

Great job how have you done so well? I feel like I am not losing "fast" enough. 12/18/09 was my surgery and I am only down 12 lbs 226 to 214 any ideas?

It's just another diet - but with help! You have to be willing to seriously restrict your eating even when your BAND allows you to eat more! Tough, but true. But your success will help you stay motivated. People told me to eat Protein first, a great idea, but I fought it for a bit thinking the band was supposed to make my weight magically disappear! Hah - it hasn't. I'm working pretty darned hard at it! Just keep working it, your success has already started!

The weight that I'm entering is from weighing naked, in the morning after I pee and before I eat/drink anything. Is that cheating???

Are you kidding? I have been going to Weight Watcher's on Saturday mornings for the past 100 years or so. There are mornings where I practically strip NAKED (Ok, I'm exaggerating) before getting on the scale. This week I honestly took my WATCH off!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
