March Bandsters: MASTER THREAD



Recommended Posts

I think Fenton is gone. He hasn't been back to LBT since 8/24.

He's not answering emails either. I know he is leaving for a month in Paris on the 9th. Maybe he will get in touch when he returns.

It's too bad. Perhaps we will have to wait for his next book to see his new picture.

Me and my tattoo'd co-workers made the front page of the local paper yesterday.....thought I'd share the article with you for fun!

Wish you could see the other pictures.......

StandardNET/Standard-Examiner

Interesting article. Depending on what part of the country you live in tattoos/piercings can be a really big issue. Not so much here in NY, but in Kansas City where my sister lives, if you're white its really frowned on.

I like your job description "a motor clothes consultant"

Why we want Fenton back:

1. We need some testosterone to help offset all the estrogen from us lady bandsters!

2. We want to hear about life in the big city --NYC!

3. We want to be able to Celebrate with him when he changes his ticker to say -100 lbs lost!

4. We want to know how his new book writing is coming along.

5. We want to hear about Paris so we can live vicariously through his adventures and gourmet meals.

6. We want to hear all about your first fill!!

7. We want to hear about his cat and his blender...of course never in the same sentence...Fenton would never do that!

8. The suspence of not knowing if he's back on the wagon or not is killing us.

Fenton if you are out there....please come back.... Maybe you'd like to meet one day in NYC. We could chat.

Greetings Shamrocks!

I am convinced I have hit the sweet spot. The weight loss has FINALLY kicked it. (It is hard to watch week after week when everyone else is losing and I was not!) I hit 250 this morning on the scale. I can't wait for the next .1 pound and I will be in the 240's! This puts my total at 37 pounds now! I am thrilled!

Anyone else so busy this September? I'm not sure what it is about the month of September, but I am usually so crazy busy!

Hi Shamrocks - I passed my PMP exam for my job today that I was studying for, and stressing over too, and now that is such a relief. I have to just keep up with continuing education to keep it current. Thanks for the well wishes and prayers.

P.S. It is fun seeing some of you adding to the Why we want Fenton back.

Congratulations HopeinApril-- that is great. I'm sensing the same frustration because I've been stuck in the same numbers for a few weeks now but I had a fill Monday and am hoping this kicks me to the sweet spot. I am surprised I haven't lost anything though in 2 days on full liquids which I have in past fills so this could be my time to hang in there and be patient. Thanks and keep up the good work! We know its not magic but work to get us to our goal. :biggrin:

SpecialK :omg_smile::thumbup::scared2::thumbup::tongue2:

That is awesome about the test. I know how much you were focused on that! That has to be a ton of stress off of you now!

You never know with the liquids. Mostly, I do lose weight, but sometimes not so much.

Thanks for the congrats and kind words!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
