Just in case you didn't:cry make it to the MD Lap Band Support Group Meeting where we expressed our goals, maybe you would like to post yours here so we can all help each other reach them.

I'll go first...:rolleyes ..Short term goal is to lose 3 pounds this week by eating or drinking 3 meals a day, stop snacking and exercise.

I want to:

1. Finally get some darn restriction w/o the pb, slime, and stuck food episodes...is there such a thing

2. Lose consistantly....2-3lbs a week will suffice

3. Start an exercise regime & stick with it

4. Start/continue eating like a model bandster

5. Kick my Otis Spunkmeyer (cookies) habit...clawd I luv that man

6. Go down another clothes size...any excuse to go shopping

...that'll do for now

Stock's goals:

Loss 10 more before surgery

Start taking my Vitamins and supplements on schedule

Go Stocky, Go Stocky do that thang.

Get through my liquid phase and im doing goos so far no meat at all :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

First of all Connie I am so proud of you. :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

According to my Doc I do not have to do a pre op diet but he wants me to walk 2 times a days as far as I can, catch my breath and do it again. So that is my new goal to walk as far as I can 2 times a day. Today and yesterday I had to go downtown Baltimore and park my car several blocks from where I had to go. Today my GH was with me and he had to help me walk to keep up with him. Used to be he had to keep with me. I am so out of shape. But I will get there. :confused: :confused:

ok, my goal is to go from a size 14 (which I am now) to a size 12 by my date in 3 weeks...mostly I will accomplish this as long as I can stick to my food regimen and not eat past 7:30 >darn those late night cravings< I am feeling very stuck and low, but that is why I am doing low carb for three weeks to bust through this plateau - it is too easy for me to get discouraged, but I am trying to stick it out

You go Barbara C:welldone2:....:clap2::banana:bananakeep it up!!!!!

You ladies have wonderful goals, keep them in focus and you will soon reach them!!! :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2:

I didnt post a goal, cus I wasnt sure exactly what my first goal shoud be. But being inspired by everyone on this board, my goal is to learn to eat more healthy and enjoy it. I have started switching my eating habits, but I still need to learn to really enjoy it.

My next goal is to get back into all those clothes I bought back in 8/2005. I wasnt that long ago, I cant beleive in such a short time I out grew them... well I am hoping to get back into them in the next couple of months... shoot, I dont have anything to wear to work!

Girl shut up, I was just thinking about our goals that we set at the meting, while I was in the bathroom 2 minutes ago. ...TMI

My exercising is getting better but my eating is still not where I want it to be.

Hey what was Karen's goal....to eat Breakfast.....HELLO

Still waiting on that restriction but eating right..hopefully I'll get some soon. No more stuck episodes and I've never had a PB or slime.

I had 4 on 3/3 (day of fill) and I havent had any since. I took those Girl Scout Cookies home and stared at the box for 5min convincing myself to eat just one(yeah right). So I open the samoas, smelled them and ran them over to my neighbor. I will not be purchasing anymore just to sniff...yes I too survived Girl Scout season.

I'm averaging 10lbs a mth w/minimum exercise, so I'm content. I've kicked up the exercise a notch and I'm excited to see whats in store scale wise. Oh and I no longer have a muffintop on my size 22's.

Muffintop, I've got one of those... I long for the day that mine is gone too!!!

3 Mile Walk On Saturday And Sunday:clap2: :clap2: :clap2: :clap2: I'M SO PROUND!!!!!!!!!! I WILL BE WALKING TODAY....YEAH

I no longer wear "queen size" panty hose. It is a small goal, but wow!!

I no longer wear "queen size" panty hose. It is a small goal, but wow!!

Wow down 52 even before your fill. U go gurl!!! How tall are you?

Yeahhhhh Terri B.......give them to me, I am a queen......I can strain Beans in them.

Ok what was my goal......?
