Hi Christina checking in at 238.8

Hi fay here at 188! Lost only 1lb:/

JulieG, gained one pound, now 206.

I did great on my exercise goal, made it to the gym 5 times (goal was 4).

It was the first week with my husband out of town training for his new career and I think I did reasonably well I guess. Single parenting is hard. But I'm doing okay. Hopefully next week will be better on the weight loss front. It's Thanksgiving this weekend in Canada so that will present some challenges as we are going to be at my in-laws for the big feast. I'm thankful for this thread and all you lovely people in it.

Weight on October 1st~ 264.6

Weight on October 8th~ 261.0

Accomplishing exercise goal, but still strugging with dietary. Also need to learn how the handle social occasions with friend (i.e drinking and dining), went last night and think I did poorly.

Joan checking in at 182.8, a loss of .6. I'll take it!

I have done well with some of my goals: walking, limiting ice cream and I did go to the movies once already. I didn't go to the gym at all this past week. I've been focused on getting my miles in for the walking challenge.

Have a great weekend!

FINALLY dropped some weight. Tengles checking in at 187.2

Hi! I'm checking in at 225 today. That's a 1lb loss. I will take it! I also completed a 5k this morning without stopping OR walking. Ran/jog the whole way!

Name, real or screen~ Ashlee

Age~ 23

Goal Weight for October 29th~ 272

Exercise Goal for October~ walking the puppies now that its not 100 degrees everyday (its only 85 lol)

Dietary Goal for October~ more protein!

Date Banded~ 6/20/11

Total Weight Loss Since Banding~ 62 lbs

Checking in at 279.4. That's - 3.2 lbs, which is nice because the last two weeks the scale didn't move much. That makes almost 66 lbs (65.6)!

Checking in at 286.8, which is only a loss of 1.2 lbs. I have done well with my goals this week, but I guess I am stalling a little bit.

Checking in at 256.6, loss of 1.2 from last week.

Well I'm still at 272. I think I should revise my goal if possible and change it to 262. I was being too aggressive just coming off of liquids thinking I could continue as I have been. It's not realistic to think I'll lose more than 2-3 lbs a week.

No loss this week. Holding at 167. Exercising, but have got to eat less calories. Larry the chart looks awesome.

Checking in at 248. Lost 1 lb.

Have done a good job with exercise and food, not such a great job with personal goals. I'll work on adding that next week.
