Okay, I have been sitting still all summer and I am getting a fill on October 16th so my goal for October is to break the 100 pound mark. It's only a couple of pounds, if you guys can keep a secret I actaully have put 5 pounds on in the last month so I really need to lose 7 pounds to break the 100 pound mark. Shh it's a secret.

Cheers

I was banded last December in Mississauga by Dr L Tin at the credit valley hospital. 93 pounds is a lot but I have been between 98 and 90 pounds since the beggining of June. I have been very busy with work (New Job) so my stress level has been high. It's time to start losing again however so with my fill coming up I plan to start dropping lbs's.

I work out 5 days a week so I think it's all about intake, my big challenge is ice cream so I have stopped buying the stuff.

Onwards and Downwards as they say.

Cheers

awesome job, Tommy! How much more to you want to lose?

I'm a big ice cream fan, but luckily for me, it seems that after a few bites, my band shrinks closed and I can't do any more! LOL

Oh, all the wasted trips to Dairy Queen.... and the container of Cherry Garcia that's actually been in my freezer for WEEKS!

You guys know how long that USED to last me (never mind my midnight trips to the freezer, eating Dan's ice cream! No more!)

Anyways, good job Tommy. You really should come visit us here more often! ;)

I would like to lose another 50 -60 lbs then see what happens, I started at 420 so a 150 pound loss puts me no lower than 270. It may seem high but I'm 6 foot 6 and look quit fit below 300. I played football in a past life and have a fairly muscular build so 270 would be a good weight.

I tell be people I have a washboard stomach it's just piled high with laundry.

Just gotta stay away from that old ice cream. Looks light Jello light pudding is going to have a sales boost ;)

Canadian, my fingers are crossed, good luck.

Tommy!!! That's fantastic, 93 lbs, now that is encouraging for all of us. As for the ice cream, have you ever tried frozen yogurt. My husband is a big ice cream fan and now he eats frozen yogurt. Chapman makes several flavors, my husband's favorite is cappacino with chocolat expresso flakes and for 1/2 a cup it's about 100 calories.

lol about the laundry. What kind of football did you play? We are big Canadian football fans in this house and we have season tickets to the Montreal Alouettes. Go Als Go!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
