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:

I looked at the spreadsheet again tonight and I signed up for 30 lbs. I am hoping this Monday, when I get my fill, I will find some true restirction. I have maintain...but not lost anything in a while. This is hard!

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've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
