Mt. Pleasant Bandsters

Thought I would start a thread for us local folks so we could exchange information about our meetings and local happenings. Our meetings are getting so big. See everyone Monday night.

  • Yes, 24 hours and I'm about to starve. I'll probably have to do 24 hours after too. Isn't it funny how the different docs require different things when we all have the same adjustments inside.

Hi, Susan.....How are you? I'm still here. Just not losing any weight :angry. I sincerely hope that I get to my sweet spot soon. I guess I will eventually. I am just discouraged right now. I had several goals set for myself and I haven't even met one yet. Like I wanted to loose 50 before Easter. That wasn't too much. I had 4 months to do it and had already lost 15 or so before surgery. I wanted to be at least 65 pounds lighter by June 1. Still haven't even gotten close to the 50 much less the 65. I didn't think those were unrealistic, but I guess I was wrong. Yes, I am beating myself up. So, sorry for whinning.

hey don't be so hard on poor old lisa you will get there it just takes longer than we thought and it sure isn't as easy as i thought it would be but just remember with out our little friend we'd probably be up 40 instead of down 40

Yeah, but our little friend needs to take a little more active involvement with their end of the agreement. I have things that I want to do and my friend has continued be a silent partner. I have to admit, I can here it whispering sometimes. Depends on what day it is. So, I'm thinking I just need a little fill this time. I will have to wait a few more days to get it so, I guess I'll make it.

talk to you later,

lisa

I doubt that..... lol. Speaking of banded. I think I'm gonna ask Dr. H about the band he forgot to put on my brain. lol Na, to be honest, I think I just need to get back to th basics of all this. I think I have too much support group meeting information swimming around in my head. And I'm trying too hard to be the perfect bandster. I think I just need to eat when I'm hungry and not worry bout getting all that "stuff" done. What a surprise!!!! lol I just figgered it out. lol

yea i think just eating a lot less of what i used to eat is the way i want to loss the weight it may take a little longer but i don't think i will gain it back if i do it this way. i was so stupid when i got the band i didn't realize that dieting would be such a big isssue i just thought eating less would be enough!!!

it is so weird i still can not get on the noscales site!!!! i'm pretty sure dr h has banned this problem child LOL

hey you are really doing good with the weight loss i read somewhere if your bmi is below 40 you can not expect to loss more than 1-2 lbs a week. (in my case 1-2 per month)

am playing with 3-4lbs i loss during the week and then its week end and we go out to eat and i don't get all the h20 i need and on mon. i will be back up. i tell you for sure when i get to the 220's i am pretty sure you won't need to ck on lbt because you will hear me SHOUTTING!!!

have a good week end

lol I kinda doubt he has banded you from the site. I don't know if that's possible. lol I was just on it.

I don't know where you read that, but that's not very encouraging for someone that wants to lose 3 pounds a week. lol If I could just lose 2 pounds a week, that would make me happy. Well, I hope this tweak will do something.

Oh and by the way, if you didn't know it IT'S FRIDAY!!!

later,

Hi Mt. Pleasant,

I live in Omaha, Tx down the road and I would really like to join your group on Monday nights. I know it's at the hospital at 7 tomorrow but can you tell me where to go in the hospital to find the room. I hate to wonder around like a lost dog all evening. I probably won't be able to make every meeting but one once in a while might prove to be helpful to my lack of weight loss since I've had a fill. Thanks Linda

llsb

it is on the ground floor in a meeting room behind the lunch room (i had a brain fart and can't spell cafteria????) now sure if i am going yet guess i will know tomorrow after work

I'm going to try to go. I'm afraid to say for sure, everytime I say for sure, something happens. Take the visitors elevator to the ground floor and it's the second or third door on the left. (not far from the elevator)
