March Bandsters: MASTER THREAD



Recommended Posts

I thought we could just do it here.

I don't think posting of weights or progress is necessary, just so long as we know that everyone has faced the scale!

What do you guys think?

Hi Shamrocks!

Thanks for the information about the PB I described. It was pretty nasty and I was hoping that was as bad as it gets. I have no desire to repeat it!

I admit, I fell off the wagon and rolled in the hay. Then I got on the scale.....nasty thing. I don't really believe I gained 10 pounds, but that sure is disheartening! I think some of it Water weight and I'll drop that quickly. I'm sure the rest will be hard fought pounds to loose. UGH!

Netti pot - I saw them being used on Oprah a few years ago. People swear by those things. I don't have sinus issues, so I can't say that I have ever bothered.

Kettle corn - that stuff is sooo good! My doc doesn't want us to have pop corn of any kind, so I haven't eaten any since surgery.

Tess - moonshine! That stuff will take the paint off your car. Be sure not to gulp that stuff down!

Friday weigh ins - sounds good to me. I'm hoping that a few of the salt pounds have come off! (Please don't really be 10 pounds that I gained!)

About the neti pot- don't knock it until you've tried it. I too thought it was gross but it is amazing how clear you breath with a little rinse.

I like the weight in idea, BUT Jonathan is not immune. Im sure in all of France he can find a scales. So what if it will be different from the one back here. It's about accountability. So hop on that scale and shout out the numbers. (here that is).

hi all... i read this thread far more frequently than i post to it, but wanted to say that i love the idea of a group weigh-in on fridays. count me in.

i've definitely made some poor food decisions in the last couple of weeks and this jut might be the to snap me back to reality.

i'm (kinda) looking forward to firing up the scale tomorrow.

Well, SB, you know what you've got to do - get back up on that horse! You'll be in onederland in no time...

And I so AM immune while I'm here, Amanda! What do you think, I'm going to go traipsing around the neighbourhood, knocking on doors and saying, "Do you have an extra-large scale I can stand on, completely unclothed?"

Because I'm not going to do that!

This was the format a group of us used in posting our Labor Day to Hallow-Lean Challenge progress. What do you think about using this format for our tracking.

The way it works is you copy the WHOLE list from the last person who posted an update, update or insert your own line (alphabetical order by your username) by copying another person's line, then post the WHOLE updated list for the next person to update. Please be sure you follow this instruction or else we'll find we accidentally drop someone off. I'll try to keep an eye on things to be sure we're okay. Also, adjust the spacing on your line with the .... so the numbers stay lined up if you can.

Starting Weight is where you are now at December 2008 not where you started :biggrin: originally.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
