Hey! I just noticed that you are more than halfway to goal! Congratulations!!!!

Thanks! I've hit my plateau, so I've added an extra half mile to my walk, hopefully it will help a little. I've also thought about getting a wii fit to see if it works, if anyone has one it would nice to get your input. Then of course they have to throw the holidays in there, which is going to make it tough for everyone.

I've been having all kinds of trouble with the site. I'm not getting my email alerts when there are new posts, and a lot of the time I can't even get on!

I'm getting email alerts to the max! I got about 20 of them and there weren't 20 new messages! Things are bizarre!

Well, this morning, I logged onto my bank account, as I do everyday to check my account and found that some girl named Sara transferred almost $1K from my account ot hers! I didn't authorize this! She apparently has my PIN#, account number, SSN#, and password! All those things are needed to make a transfer! I've been sick about it and I need to resolve this!

I weighed this morning. I lost 2.6lbs as of this morning. I had lost 4, but my ankles and feet are pretty swollen from working the last 4 days! I'll just lose more next week!

Would you like me to do the monitoring next week?

Thanks!

OMG!! What did your bank say? Oh dear.

I thought you were going to wait till tomorrow to report your weight cuz of working? Why don't you weigh again tomorrow and you can see if you lost some. And I can monitor. Not a biggie.

PrtyAntOvrYt,

I had the same problem 2 weeks ago!! Except they moved 1000 from checking into our saving, and then moved 950 from our account into another Wells Fargo account! I flipped out, because for one, we don't have that kinda money. Our little bank got bought out by Wells Fargo, and during all the changes I got an email that I thought was from them. Clicked on the stupid link, and we think it took me to a fake sight, and signed in! It all looked like Wells Fargo stuff! I had no idea, at least thats how we think they got all my info. They wouldn't have got it any other way! Then last week I got another call from the bank, just checking on things, and they said that who ever was doing this tried to get another 999! To bad for them, we closed both accounts so they couldn't get anymore! I think this is one of the worse and stressfull things I have every gone through, and everyone is getting the brunt of all my feelings! Its getting better, but some of our bills are all screwy from this! What a pain.

They said I must have given my information to someone! I honestly have not! AND I shred everything that enters this house! I also have never spoken or written my PIN number! EVER! I think it's a problem within the bank itself. Esp. since I've heard of this happening with several other account holders.

I was so nervous I hadn't eaten, but I finally did and I just weighed again and I lost another 1.4 lbs! Screwy scale! I'll weigh again tomorrow and see if I lose more! That puts me at 4lbs lost.

PrtyAntOvrYt,

I wonder if it's something to do with their employees. I worked for a bank for 5 years and I know of the fraud that happens with employees. I'm worried about my bills!

They sure are, I just got 13, and when I clicked on them they all went to the same place, nowhere. There were several new posts tho'. Must have something to do with this goofy weather we have.

I am down a pound.

I saw Dr. K today instead of Tom, he took out .05cc, not alot, but hopefully enough to make the coughing stop. I scheduled my appt for the first week of January and will see where to go from there...

Who do you bank with Dee? We also have Wells Fargo and have had problems with hackers. It stinks and they are S-L-O-W to resolve it. Good luck to you, that sucks!

Good morning lap band ladies! Today is our first official weigh in day of our holiday challenge.

Lotza started us off yesterday with her 3 lb weight loss!!

I lost 1.9 and I'm just peachy with that.

I think Tally forgot to report before leaving on her trip, and Dee is going to weigh in tomorrow.

Let's hear from the rest of you losers!! Whoohoo!!

I overslept the morning of my trip and my daughter had to wait 30 minutes for me, ugh! I never do that. Anyway, only have a minute but I am down 4 pounds!! Yeah.

Yay Dee, Brandy, and Tally on your losses!!!

I had a fill yesterday and I'm afraid to try eating. I just had some cottage cheese that had a couple of canned peach slices in it. I got them down, but I was kind of worried. I hope this fill is a good one though.

Tally! how's that restriction? Still there? What you wrote about a slow leak makes perfect sense! I hoping for the best for you! No leak and some sweet restriction!

So far so good on the restriction. I feel like I am eating more but then when I figure out what I've had for a day, I'm not. I think I am just waiting for the appetite to come back. I did have two warm yummy oatmeal raisin Cookies tonight that the hotel gave us which I wish I could have resisted but... Dr. K had Natalie call me today which I thought was nice.

I just ate dinner. I made myself a little of the ricotta bake from last night, as well as some creamy tuna salad that I got from the store today. I was really looking forward to my meal, and after about 6 bites of each, I was stuffed! :cursing: Now let's just see how long this feeling of fullness lasts....

Just checking in for the weigh in. I lost 5 pounds...yeah! I went yesterday for a fill but the doctor wouldn't give me one. I guess since I have been losing steady, he doesn't think I was ready for a fill. I still feel like I am eating too much and I get hungry faster. I have to wait until 12/17 for my next appt. That will make it 3 months since my last fill.

Dee, I can't believe that someone is stealing from your bank account!!! I would be freakin out. Hope it all works out.

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
