Hi everyone! I'm having surgery on January 10th and created a group in the groups section "January 2012 bandsters". Would love to get some discussions, support going.

I'm in!! I am at 223, so that would be 218 by 4/25!!

This weeks goal is water, water, water!!! 4 workouts this week and find something to destress before going home. Today I got a Starbucks and window shopped!!

Me Three! I'm in too! My goal is to get down to 199 {Onderland} by losing 8lbs! Good luck everyone!

Yay! I have goal buddies! Nicole...I am having to be very conscious of my water as well!!! And I'm glad you are finding ways to destress before you get home! Good for you! Meredith...I can't wait to get to Onederland myself. Just 25 more pounds! We can do this!!

Me too, me too!

I'm at 216 so that will be 211 by 4/25. My goals are to get back to 3 days a week working out and drinking my 64oz of water per day! Good luck to us all and away we go on our 3 week mini-challenge!

Yay! I'm in a size down in jeans! Luckily I have several different sizes in my closet, LOL. I had tried them on a couple weeks ago and they almost fit. Today, no problem. It would be nice to skip a size or two on the way down.

Round of applause to JustDoIt130..that's fantastic!! next thing you know you'll be on a shopping spree cause everything will be too big!!

I'm with you! My weight is 251 sot that will be 246 for me! By the way Happy Birthday!!! I love April babies. Mine is 4/22!

JustDoIt...that's awesome! I wish I had some jeans that fit. lol. MissBee...glad to have you on board! Thanks for the birthday wishes and same to you! A friend of mine is a 4/22 baby as well. April is a good month!

Had second fill today of 2cc's now a total of 7cc in my 14cc band. Hope to see more change soon. I was down some weight also. I did not want to get on their scale so did not pay attention to what it was. Staff said keep doing what I am doing. And YES muscel mass is heavier then fat. So all this stress for nothing. (or was it).

Have a bad case of hiccups tonight thou.

Thanks for all you do on here for me

Thanks

Hi all! I just wanted to tell y'all that I increased my workout by 10 minutes this afternoon. 40 minutes instead of 30. Yay me, LOL

Yah Justdoit!!???ª congrats on the smaller size!!

Otaknam, glad your appointment went well. All your hard work is paying off!!

At my last fill I gained 4 pounds.... :-( ... I am up to 7cc and only feel restriction in the morning.. This week I really starved myself just decaf coffee and 1 meal a day... Lost those 4 pounds, but I know I can't keep that up... Going back to the gym starting Monday.. Hope that helps out... I have failed at every weight loss attempt and I really can't let this one fail too...

Hi Shonda- this has to be a sustainable lifestyle, and you're right, coffee and one meal a day isn't that, LOL. Eat sensibly, eat small portions, even if you're still hungry- it's willpower until you get to restriction!! Do you log your food? A lot of us use My Fitness Pal- on the computer or an app on your phone. I log everything! Food and exercise. I wish it had a way to track Water, though. Good for you on the exercise, that will definitely help! You won't fail. Remember, it's a marathon, not a sprint.

I did 43 minutes of my elliptical on Saturday, plus weed whacked- my arms are still killing me . I have definitely noticed as I lose weight I want to get out and do a lot more!!

MyFitnessPal tracks your water consumption for you boyh online and using the app. It tracks in svgs only though, not ounces.
