I know I'm early, but I'm going to pretend January didnt exist since I'm still at '264'!!!:mmph:

So I will be starting my Feb goal this Monday. I have a fill booked for Monday and I will be returning to my treadmill every day for 30 minutes, now that Lambing and Christmas is over.

I'm setting my goal high, but I'm going to work extra hard this month. I'm going away with my hubby at the end of Feb, so I would like to be ..............250 or less:eek: .......I might have to do the treadmill for 2x a day to get there, but I'm going to try.

Thank you.

I feel like a weird person.

Hi Gang.... my goals are..... to get thru my surgery on the 24th ....with as little pb'ing as possible.....'cause from what I read......it is realllll nasty..... keep a positive attitude because this is the start of my next great life....and to listen to the Canadian contingency of gals/guys advice and wisdom I have been learning from for the last month or so on this site... thanks for letting me "lurk and learn"!!!

Good luck Blue gem!

Argon,

Look at how great you are doing! 99lbs is nothing to scoff at. Give yourself a Pat on the back and just start again this week. We've all been there and we'll join you in kicking the scale.

Happy lb hunting/target this week.

Hi Bluegem, all the best to you, 24th is just around the corner, where are you been banded? who is doing your surgery?

Hi Irish..

I will be having the surgery at Blue Water Clinic in Sarnia,Ontario with Dr's Taylor and Mahunthan.

Congrats BlueGem on making the choice.

I was lurking here for quite some time before I decided to do the surgery. I have found this site to be extremly helpful. Welcome and good luck with the future banding.

Congratulations Bluegem!!!

Thank you.

Okay, you cannot type THIS, and expect me, or Yoda, for that matter to not respond! FEEL, WEIRD??????

Yeah... weird! I guess different too. I am constantly thinking "what am I doing trying to put these jeans/shirt/whatever on!?" Then I put them on, realize they're an 18, and too big.

I have lovely rolls on my back, they're shrinking, yes... but not fast enough. I honestly think if they were gone, I might be ok with everything else. They make me not what to wear anything too tight that'll show my 'back fat', or get trapped in it! Hopefully though, with the speed they're moving, at least I'll be getting down a few more sizes at least before these puppies are gone.

*edit - oh yeah... I'm not scoffing! I'm super happy and proud of the 99lbs. Maybe 99 even sounds more cool than 100?! I just want it to move already and let me keep going!!!*

Well...I reached one goal by getting under 100 pounds to lose. The excercising...not so much, but I am working on it. lol.

Good luck on your surgery, It was the best decision I have ever made and I an only one week out !

Thank you.

I think we're ALL a little weird...

Way to go Mandi !

I have been waiting for it, 102lbs lost, how cool is that !
