Welcome to the Gone for Good Club

The members of this "club" are like-minded people who want to challenge each other to keep working toward our goal of weight loss and keeping it off! We have no illusions of the band being a miracle cure, nor do we believe that we will achieve our goals without working for them. We understand that if we continue the lifestyle and eating habits that got us fat in the first place, we will not achieve our goals. We come together in order to strengthen our determination by sharing our dreams, our struggles, and our victories with one another.

Everyone is welcome to join the club - banded, pre-banded, no band - all are welcome to join at any time. To join, please post a brief introduction of yourself and list any information you want posted on the main page. See the list of members below to get an idea of what info you can post. The only requirement for joining the club is a commitment to your own success in your weight loss journey, and the ability to say NO to Girl Scout cookies! (club joke *winks*)

Wednesdays are weigh-in days for those who wish to have us update your progress on this page. Please post a brief note on Wednesdays in the following format: C 265 (-42 lbs total, -3 this week)

We encourage everyone to get to know one another while sharing tips, support, struggles, and encouragement... and a kick in the rear when needed! *grin*

This is not a contest, there is no deadline, and everyone is a winner by being a "loser"!

P'Nut, since I've been deducting my total weight loss from my surgery day weight (S 274) rather than my highest weight, will you please include it on the first page of stats? Thanks!

C187 (-32 lbs total, -1 this week)

C 385 (-0)

I went to the doctors yesterday and got my forms filled out referring me for the surgery. I faxed it to my lapband doctor to get the ball rolling. Any idea how long it takes at this point? I know I need a sleep study and two visits with the psych and two with a nutritionist and a consult with my doc. I hope it doesn't take forever. i want this done NOW. hehe

I'm so excited I could faint!:faint:

I want to see pics. Put a shirt on, cut off your head, whatever, we want to see your boobies!!!

Even though I laughed out loud at this - I'm voting to see boobies pics too.

Happy A-Day Kathy!

Cant keep secrets around here, its against the LBT law. You MUST tell, or we'll lock you in the closet with loads of Easter candy! :biggrin1:

Paula your funny. If you make promises you should keep them. LOADS?

I have just flat out not been able to eat in the last week. I don't know why. I am full all the time and if I do eat, I feel sick, or get sick. I had my last fill 2/06. It was all fine and dandy up until last week. Oh well. The weight is coming off!

I get to join the 4 lbs group..:clap2:

c 328 (-4)

found out today low on vitamins D anyone else?

I had plateaued until I discovered Billy Blakes this week. He is the Tae Bo guy. But he has a program out called Billy's Boot Camp that comes with resistance bands.

I'm having to alternate him and Richard Simmons Sweating to the Oldies because I can barely sit down or stand up after Billy kicked my butt! But definately a good, do-able workout.
