Road to "TWOterville"

Well it seems there are several of us who are currently trying to get to twoterville. So if you are one of us trying for it please tell us your goals and we can support each other as we try to get our tricksy scales to be nice and cooperative.

NOTE: So many of the people who participate in this thread have made it in to twoterville that we have really morphed to include passing thru twoterville as well as into it. This has happened over time, we keep growing, lol, but in a good way :eek:

  • Oh my goodness! Lapbandit, you look AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Geeze, I mean AWESOME! Way to go.

  • Thanks for the welcome ladies. You are all doing so well! I've currently hit a plateau, but my measurements are dropping again! I was able to put on a pair of jeans I haven't worn in over 3 years.

Angela-Happy Bandiversary!! That is just amazing.

Molly- the dissertation on eating the soft yummies had me in stitches! I feel you sista! Been there, want to be there right now in this moment, but am sitting here with an ice water at the computer.

Am I any closer to twoterville?? No, but I can say this.........something I have never been able to say before. I think the band may actually work once I get to a more restricted point. I have had 4 fills and just this last one, have I ever PB'd when my eyes were bigger than my stomach. I know that sounds crazy but I was actually happy when I threw up food!

It means that the band is actually in there and it can work. If I help.

Since only losing 3 lbs last month I have not been to the gym. I will get back there, I know I will, I am just taking a hiatus.

My teenage boys are driving me up the crazy tree and I am happy that school starts next Monday.

Do you guys ever have this thought???

Why doesn't everyone just do what I want.

Wow!! the world would be so much better if they did. LOL

May today be a low cal day for you.

KT

great job everyone!! i am down a total of 5 and a bit from last Wednesday. not too shabby for TOM rearing it's ugly head and me craving (and last night eating SF chocolate). i guess being 'good' and working my @$$ off the rest of the time helps!

SOOOO many people close to twoterville. you will make it, i know you will! everyone is doing so well!

i am going in for a slight fill today. i have been eating a tad too much and need a "harder stop". i tend to ignore the soft stops that i get (i know, bad christine! :))

have a great week everyone!

OK so I decided to post my progress on the chart with no goal just progress. Since my great downfall to ending up back at 289 I am again back down to 284.5:whoo: If and I do mean if I were to get back into the 70's by the end of the month I'd be extatic, however I am not gonna put any pressure on myself right now to do anything other than to avoid the junk. I'm babystepping it :)

Oh and yes the world would be a much better place if everyone did what I want them to do ;P

I would like to apologise to the gentlemen (at least one I see) that have joined us and I not notice. I have been adressing the group as ladies. Sorry to leave you guys out :)

I had another stellar day today. After dinner I was a ways under on calories so I allowed myself some lowfat pretzels to munch on. The nice thing about them is that they aren't too bad for us and they fill me up really quick, like real quick, I have to be careful with them. So for me it takes care of late nite munchies wehn I have them. And yes I do measure them out so I know how many I am having :) Once again today I completely avoided the candy dish on my desk. What is it with reception desks and candy. Do companies really think they are doing anyone a favor by having those? Well see you al tomorrow skinny dreams everyone :)

:D Today's official (first thing in the AM) weigh-in was 300.6

But, I'm having this illicit love affair with my digital scales right now. I know its cheap and tawdry, but I can't help myself!

So, it was peeking out from under the island, giving me this come-hither look awhile ago and I just had to have a quickie!!!

It was 298.8!!!:clap2:

I'm not gonna jump the gun, here, but I think tomorrow might be the day I roll into "TWOTerville"!!!! :scared:

Grats Nana :scared:

Well the battery died in my digital scale so I couldn't weigh in this morning. Hopefully that will make tomorrow more fun :D It's our weekend with the kids so staying on track is gonna be hard, but I will do my very best. NO BAKING!!!! I will not be buying them chips or cookies and I will not be doing any baking and neither will they! They don't need that crap either. All I have to do is stay strong for todays grocery trip and that should keep me in the clear. I am plenty tight enough that the only thing I can overeat is junk. This past 3 days of being good have proven that my restriction is very good, I can eat solid protien but I have to chew really well and go slow and I fill up fast and stay full. I am taking my vitamins because I am not having much if any room for veggies, so the vitamins are vital! OK I'm done now, hehe. Happy Friday everyone the weekend is here!!!:whoo:

way to go Nicole & Nana!!!

i got to drop a bottom notch on the scale ... i am getting soooo excited...

Wow Christine you go girl!

Going Shopping tonight after dinner and grabbing a new battery for the scale so that I can weigh in tomorrow morning. I got hungry after lunch so instead of eating I took a nap, hehe, guilty luxuries of a day off. Since I woke up I'm not really hungry, lol, go figure. But at least I didn't graze :D
