<p>For those of you who might be interested, I have started a weight loss challenge under the Lap-Band Support Group threads. This challenge is going to start today Labour Day and will last until Thanksgiving Day (November 22). Yes this is posted on the general threads and thus we are following the U.S. holiday. I joined their previous challenge which started in July to Labour Day and I found it quite inspirational. I hope you can join our friends south of the border for this challenge.</p>

To access this challenge click on Lapbandtalk home page, look for Main Lap-band forums and then click on lap-band support. The thread to the challenge is there. Best of luck to you all.

I just joined.... don't see your name there, Marcar! Is this just some ploy to dupe us into joining challenges while you run away giggling!!??

Sorry Argon...did not realize that a challenge had already started and I had started another thread...my name is there now.

No, no, I'm sorry. I didn't realized that when you said "I started" that you meant that YOU actually started/created the challenge, so I just joined the first Sept to Thanksgiving challenge I saw! I was just givin' you a hard time, but not for real :eek:

Well I took the plunge too! I really am feeling the need for a good swift kick!! I have not been gaining this summer but I have not been losing either, I am getting a bit concerned as I am not at 7cc in my band and not feeling a lot of restriction yet. am I some kind of freak of nature or what??? Does anyone have this much in their band? I am going to call the clinic and see what they think. My concern is what happens just how much can this band be filled??

So Yes I am taking that challenge and really looking forward to seeing results!

Call the clinic but I think the slower the fills the better cause then you'll know when you reach your "sweet" spot - restriction but being able to eat what you're suppose to eat without pb. You seem to be doing well with weight loss - 38lbs gone YEAH!!

Get outta this weight loss challenge thread, "Ms. 17lbs past goal"! :eek:
