Yay, I've lost 2 more lbs down to 256. i saw 255.5 flicker for a moment, LOL

I was heavy most of my young life, then during the summer between my junior and senior year in high school I lost a lot of weight by going on the practically anorexic diet. I got a LOT of attention, I was pretty hot. Then I went to college, met my first husband, got married and had 2 kids, and packed on the weight. Did different diets, exercised like crazy but ate to make up for it. Then got divorced, lost some weight, met my second and final DH, lost some more weight, then had a baby, gained weight, broke my ankle, gained weight, had another baby, gained weight- and decided it was time to just get this done with. DH had suggested lap band after seeing some of his co-workers do it. So I went to my PCP (who had actually recommended bypass a few years before but I didn't want to re-route my innards). Did the 6 month diet, got approved and was banded 1/26/12.

So I have a total of 4 kids, a (mostly) supportive husband, and more energy than I've had in a very long while!

Grrr - 221 - up 1 lb this week. I need a fill but they can't get me in until next Weds. So I'll fight the good fight until then! The rest of the month should be easy after that.

Thanks, Larry. Boy do I feel like an idiot!

[CTMom 6]

Checking in today at 140. That's 2 lbs away from my March goal and 5 lbs from my ultimate goal, YAY! I am going out of town this weekend, so honestly if I can just maintain this coming week I'll be happy.

[NJMomma 3]

Down another couple, 238. Had to get an unfil on Monday, feeling no restriction now hopefully I can stay on track

Sarah checking in at 214. Of course that was this morning before I started my marathon baking (read eating) for my son's school. I'm sure I gained a pound or two today, but I'm sticking with 214 for this week. No loss. Boo.

[journey4me 23]

Thought I would be doing better, but I haven't had a fill yet so it has gotten much harder. still chugging along. Congrats to all those who lost this week!

Checking in this morning at 196....down 1 lb !!!

Although I have no weight change. I have reached and exceeded my goal as far as my dress size. I am definitely in a solid 12W. Can I just say that I have not seen a 12W since I was in 7th grade %%years ago. EXCITED for the little things. This is definitely a NSV....YAY!!! I try to see the happier side of things, since the scale isnt moving and I have had 2 fills. I am definitely seeing the inches melt away. Still happy and excited... :-)
