Have fun on your buying trip! Must be fun to go buy a bunch of stuff other people are going to end up buying from you!

Between the Flu and my second fill, I feel like I have lost about 10 pounds... we will see on Wednesday when I get to weigh in again. I hope it is not just my mind playing tricks on me. I truly feel like I have the beginning of good restriction... Yippy!!!:eek:

Able to post 1.5 pounds down, not a huge loss, but I'm happy with it! I was so conservative with my goal because I know I'm a slow loser, but the band has really helped me to stay on track. I think now I can make it to 191 by Valentine's day, and finally get to a total weight loss of 25 pounds.

Waiting to see all the amazing results you guys will post again this week.

Trixie: 16 pounds since the beginning of the Challenge? That is incredible. Notice you have a low goal weight. Are you short, like me?

I hope I have some restriction now and maybe next challenge, I can post double digits!

Thanks, Shortgal! It's been tough with no restriction, but having goals has been such a motivational kick in the butt! We really need to keep this up. When the Valentine's Day challenge has ended we need to come up with more!

I'm 5'2", how short are you?

Wow, you're tall!!! LOL

I'm only 5"0'. I dont even dream of a goal weight less than 130 and have listed my official goal as 140. Even if I could get to 130, I don't know that I could maintain it. I just don't know I want to work hard enough to get and stay there. But you seem to be working very hard, so for you it might be doable.

Have you ever weighed that as an adult? I was never lower and maintaining less than 128 ever. And I was much younger!

I had suggested another challenge. Like Valentine's Day to St Patrick's Day or to Easter.

I forgot to check in last week, but had a fill and have lost five pounds! If I could fit in the exercise it would be great. If my house gets finished and we move in this week, the exercise is on! I am determined to meet that goal!

Hey Tyman, you and Trixie have the same goal weight.

We are definitely the shorties here, at 4 feet 10 and me at 5 feet even and Trixie at 5 feet 2!

You're doing very well on weight loss. Your surgery date was close to mine, but your ahead of me on weight loss. And you haven't even been exercising??? You'll be at goal in no time, if you start.

I'm gonna give credit to, it on the fact that you're younger than me.... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!!! LOL

this fill feels closer, so far, to my first sweet spot, so maybe a few pounds will fall off a little quicker for me.

Yay! I'm hoping I can possibly lose another 7 lbs by Valentine's, but I won't kick myself if I don't.

      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!!

      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?

      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
