weekly scale challenge

Happy Monday to all of you...

I want to start a scale challenge...this is for all of you (including myself ) that get on that scale more then once a week...

Today I have made the challenge to myself to only get on it every Monday morning..

As of this morning my weight is 229

This is a great way to not obsess with what the scale reads through out the week if I have some challengers to do it with me

Next weigh in Monday 7/27

Any takers??

Everyone is doing so well! You'd think it was springtime with babies and all the sunshine around here. Congratulations to all!

I am down 2 more this week. Hope it stays gone. I have 3 birthday dinners and Thanksgiving in 2 weeks time. I'm worried about that pumpkin pie, too --it's slippery stuff. As long as I keep making hats, I think I'll do all right. :)

CHILDERN ARE A BLESSING FROM GOD..

Hi Veronica, Congratulations! I have a local band friend who just found out she is pregnant. She saw the fill doctor last week since finding out the big news and he said that for now he is going to keep her fill at the same and assess it every couple of months. Yours may not remove your fill either. I did hear about a banded girl pregnant with twins but haven't been updated on her situation in awhile. Best of luck to you.

I didn't lose this week either but still holding steady. I get the first fill wednesday. Hopefully with the flouro they can get it in there this time. Teresa

Greg!!!!! I Will Never Use Your Name And Pregnant In The Same Sentence If You Don't Use My Name And Twins In The Same One!!!!!! :)

On another note, I have to call Dr. Ortiz about my fill level.

Congrats on Onederland Michelle!!!! Ok I got my fill and am going to start with the monday weigh in's....since my fill last thursday I am down 4 lbs!!! Yeah!! Plus I am doing more excercizing and that seems to be helping alot!!

hey veronica... congratssssssss,,, i'm a labor and delivery nurse.... does your band have to be emptied???/ talk to your ob gyn and band md.... you may be able to do with and just eat small very"good" balanced and protein packed meals.... without the band, i lost weight with both my pregnancies... because the baby was sitting high, it felt like i had the band... that was one of the reasons i got the band... i said if i could feel like i was pregnant with that ball pushing into my stomach, i would be able to loose weight..... best wishes... Ro

i ate frequent, but small meals...

Another Monday morning upon us. Phew where does the time go

Lost another glorious pound. One more ppound and it will be first time in 20 years I've been in the 250 bracket.

Good luck all and God Bless

Remember (Just incase you forgot Thanksgiving is for stuffing the turkey not our bodies).

Good morning everyone!! I am proud to report a wonderful 5.5 lbs gone forever this week! Yipee! I am however starting to get hungry. I'll hold my own this week for the festivities as I am still on mushies. Good luck to all of my fellow bandsters!

Way to go Melissa. Enjoy the big losses. They slow up after awhile but don't come back so who cares LOL I've only lost 2 pounds in last three weigh ins and can't be happier.

Betty you got right attitude too.

I'm hoping the challeneg helps me too. Sittiing here at work waiting for day shift girl to relief me and then its home to the treadmill.

(don't tell Becky but I'm going to win)
