Checking in on week 2 of the HARVEST MOON CHALLENGE!

Down 3 POUNDS to 255 1/2

Good morning everyone. It is Saturday at 8:22 AM. I got up at 5 to get this table completed. Sorry it is late but when my account got deleted I lost all my profile settings and had to get them set up again. Here is the link to the current results. As always if there is a mistake or I left someone out let me know so I can fix it.

Harvest Moon Challenge

As Joan stated earlier one of the most enjoyable thing about this job is that I get to read everyone's posts and read all of their goals and the personal goals are the best. My favorite this month was from Bella Bear.

Live during the day, Love at night.

Thank you Larry for your hard work and determination!

Hello,

I went in for a band check today, my band is still slipped but doesn't need surgical repositioning at this time. I'll go in for a recheck in 3 more weeks. The doc took another 1cc out so my band is as empty as possible to help it slip back into place. I made an appt. to see an allergist and have allergy testing a week from Wednesday. I am convinced my band slipped due to my horrendous seasonal allergies, post nasal drip... My doc and NP believe so, too. The doc said that only 2% of bands slip, why me, lol! A fellow band friend went with me to the appt. to get a fill for her band. She said I am so small I don't look like I belong there. ; ) I am taking the whole slipped band situation in stride, what else can I do?

It's good news that you don't have to have another surgery. Here's hoping you can maintain until you can have you band filled again. Good luck and keep us informed.

I went and had a fill today I weighed in at 215 lbs. So I lost 4 lbs this week so far. I have 6.8cc in a 10cc band. This first I had a fill and im not hungry!!! Can I be at my sweet spot

Amy checking in at 211 !!! down 3 lbs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm checking in this morning at 135.6.

Checkin in @ 191!! down 2lbs.

Good morning! Checking in at 226....that's down 3whole lbs from last week! Whoo freaking Hoo!! I'm in training for a 5k next month and I'm literally running my behind off!! Good luck fellow challengers!

JulieG (nu2ywg) checking in with no change this week at 211.5. Can't say I'm surprised but I'm a little disappointed. I did great in the fitness department, have been doing more jogging as well as very regular gym time but I'm eating TOO MANY Snacks and snacks that aren't healthy. So my goal of less snacking has not really come to pass. I have to go somewhat easy on myself though as this is without a doubt a very busy week in a very busy month with the back to school thing still fresh, 2 kids with birthdays, back to school for me (distance college courses), preparing for camping and a family birthday gathering while camping. I have my MRI this saturday too (which I will drive back for then head back to campsite) to investigate my gallbladder issues.

Looks like a some great success for a lot of people this week, congratulations to you!

Good morning, checking in at 261 this morning. That's 4 lbs since last week. Still haven't gotten to the gym yet since I have been busy every night for the last week, but that is a good thing. If I am not at home watching TV I won't snack.

On a side note went to see the movie "Creature" last night with my movie discussion group. Don't see this movie alone, for one thing you will be the only one in the theater and the other you will have no one to laugh with about the ridiculous story line, awful acting, terrible special effects and bad fake Cajun accents. Possible one of the worst movies I have ever paid money to see.

I am down to 264, thats 2 pounds! yay me! I have walked 2 miles twice this week. And I'm still motivated to walk the 5k next month. Oh, And I audtioned for a play on Sunday night, and I got a part! woohoo. Jenn

It's been a very bad week. I found the 2 pounds that jlaroux lost. I'm checking in at 178.4. OK, gym....here I come!

I'm down one pound this week, weighed in at 259. Been doing zumba 4, sometimes 5 days a week, sticking with my three small meals. But I have a problem. Dunkin Donuts pumpkin Spice Latte. It's the devil. Even though I get it with skim milk and no sugar, I know it's not a good option. I think I had one almost every day last week :oO

Oh Larry, you've been subtracting 100 lbs again lol. I was looking at the chart last week, you have my goal and starting weight 100lbs less than what it is lol. You don't have to go in and change it, just thought it was funny.
