:lol:Theresa and Deb-----

How did you guys do at the casino? Great, I hope :w00t:

I'm still jealous!!!!!

Deb---- it was great seeing you again. Casino mext time for sure!!!

Theresa---- Let me know if you want to go to Bingo

The casino was fun, of course. I couldn't win anything all day though. Spending the day with Deb was even better.

Don't know about bingo...I'll have to let you know when you want to go. I'm too busy right now to even think about it.

I have mysteriously lost 3 pounds in the last week. This even though I did touch the halloween candy. It makes no sense, but I will take it. Good luck on the challenge. This has got to be the hardest part of the year to do it.

My surgery is this Friday and I am working on my freakout. I have to do that a couple days ahead of time. I cannot wait until this is over with. I am hoping after surgery I get off the hormones and am able to exercise again, I will actually lose a bit more weight. I have a slight success in that I've moved down one pant size.

Julie, I am going to say 10 for the Xmas Challenge.

This last fill is totally doing its job. I lost 3 lbs since our pizza night last Monday! Having to really watch what I eat - major slime incidents with Pasta and crackers so far. :smile2:

Hi Deb,

I'm sorry I missed you too. I could use a dose of your goofiness! :-)

I live about 90 minutes from that part of Denver and it would have been past my bedtime if I'd met up with you so late. I'm hoping for next time.

I think maybe it is time for a bit of a fill. I haven't lost more than three pounds in the last several weeks. I can eat pretty much anything, as long as I take small bites and eat slowly. But I am getting hungry sooner than I used to, and am definitely eating larger portions...What do you think? How do you know when you are ready to get "topped-off"?

Mary

Amino acids are what Proteins are made of, so I can't see a problem with the band. The pills can't be that huge and this therapy is used by various folks for bariatric patients.

I ate a large portion of ice cream tonight trying out my new ice cream scoop from Wilton. It's great. I am a bit stressed out right now. That and I can't have milk at all tomorrow. Which I still don't understand.

OK, weighed in for the challenge. I lost two pounds this past week, so not sure I'll lose any during this first week. We'll see. Good luck everyone!

Confused...I thought today was the baseline weight for the challenge. Works for me that we're deducting though.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
