Road to onderland challenge May 21-June 21



Recommended Posts

I stayed the same this week. Was given the bad news that the band doctor will not let me get a fill until i see the gastro doctor in June. This is going to be hard!!!

Count me in...on my home scale I am 202, but I know that the doctor's office is normally between 8 and 12 pounds higher, so I normally add 10 pounds to whatever my home scale says. Butg if I can get to 190 on my home scale I would be estatic!

I wish I had thought to do that, but I think once I hit 189 I might take one because it has been so hard to do. I have set another goal. I have 5 lbs to go to maintain a 5lb a month loss. I would like to lose more a month but if I can do 5 a month that would make me happy. I have lost 1 lb so I am playing catch up with last month, but thats ok. Good luck everyone!

Well, I know I am a day early for weighin but it's getting pretty hard for me to get on the boards from work.

My last fill a week ago today has done a wonder on me. My band has been taking me through. Very tight in the AM and lossing up on some days but not all.

My weight loss for this week is a -3 pounds which brings me to 201lbs. Hurray Hurray Hurray, I'm on my way to onederland!!!!

Well I am happy to say that yesterday (06/07) I made it to 199!!:clap2: Then when I am really trying to step up my game and workout like crazy and cut back on what I am eating EVEN MORE I get the dreaded TOM last night. I knew it was coming b/c I was wanting to graze on everything in sight and started to feel bloated. So sure enough, this morning the scale read 200 again. :faint: But I know it is only temporary and is probably b/c I am full of Water. After the yucky TOM has passed I hope to be striving for 195 by the end of June. Since my 2nd fill two weeks ago my weight loss has been around 8 lbs so I cannot complain!

I weighed myself monday and it said 189.8, woooohoooo my goal! Before I get too excited, I weighed in yesterday for the thread and I am still stuck at 191. I hope it goes back down quickly.

Don't you just hate that Liz, I do the same thing. When I think I am on my way that TOM hits me hard and there is usually 3 to 4 pounds added. But I try to stay encourage cause I know if I do the right thing that will leave along with a few extra pounds.

Anyway, this week I was up and down but this AM I was 200 even so I'll take it. I will try to step up my game by next week. I am going to need 195 to really know that I am out of the 200.

Have a great day!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
