Im down 49 pounds from march 3rd. I started at 225, my goal was to be 160 by the time I turned 40 which is the 23rd of this month, I'm not gonna make it! DARN...........:think

Hi everyone,

I'm down 81lbs since March 20th, so 6mths creeping up fast. I've had 2 fills, a few pb's and get that stuck feeling when I take too big a bite or don't chew enough.

I can still eat pretty much what I choose to but tend to make pretty good choices most of the time! I walk on my treadmill and swim when I can and that's about it. So far, so good and I'm happy with my band :biggrin1:

I'm feeling so very proud of every one of you! Your success is awesome no matter how fast or slow the progress....it's still progress. I've had 3 fills and now have 2 ccs and some occasional restriction. I have wonderful results those weeks when I'm on vacation and active but it all slows to a crawl when I'm having a busy week at work. Between a long day sitting at a desk coupled with an hour long commute each way, I'm don't make the time to get the exercise I need. I'll just have to keep working at it.

Hugs to everyone.

Hi Marchers '06, let's get to loosing in '07. Where are you:notagree Let's get to goal this year.:cheer2: :mad: :mad: :) :mad:

I'm pleased (shocked!!) at my weight loss since March 06....but I've been on a stall for 3-4 weeks now - and not because of cheating - I haven't in spite of the hoidays. I have cut back on exercise and let my membership drop at the gym. But you are right.....now is a good time to get back on track. A very successful wls friend of mine says 'the first 100 pounds are the easiest'......that means I've got to work harder for my second hundred pounds, doesn't it.

I started at 231 and I am now at 160!!!!!! I am wearing a size 8-- (people say there is no way that I weigh 160 - that I look so much smaller). Anyway, I feel great and I can't wait to lose the last 20 lbs or so!

Hi all! I'm down a total of 70.5 lbs. Whoopee, at 164.5 and have 39.5 left. It's great to hear from all of the other Marchsters! Let's hear it for 2007!!!!!!!

Congrats on the baby:Banane14:

I am really getting back to the basic diet that my Dr. had me on, which I'm suppose to be still on. I've started with my water again and eating protein first with very little carbs. Now I've got to start the gym again, it's free and it's just down stairs. I've got to get out of the laziness. I feel so much better when I get to moving anyways.

Thanks Tann....we're not pregnant yet...just working on it!!! :)

Keep making good choices!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your on track it sounds like!!!!

God Bless,

Melody
