I finally broke my 15 day plateau. Holy Smokes it has taken 15 days to lose one friggin' pound. But! I am happy as a clam with my results and I ain't letting it get me down. Onward and downard! I still have the darn goal of losing 100lbs. by May 6th but I am thinking at this rate it won't happen but holding on to hope!

Cheers Nymphs!

I just got back from vacation. I thought I gained weight but I've lost half a pound...no clue how that happened! Final exams are done so I have nothing stopping me from going to the gym everyday again.

I had a fill tuesday before setting off into the wild blue yander. Puts me up to 8.5 cc's in APL band. I AM TIGHT, TIGHT, TIGHT!!!

I think this fill will skyrocket my loss even more than it has been in the past 2-3 weeks and I will cruz right past my goal. (at least I hope so.)

Hang tight Nymphs! (excuse the pun)

Ok, shortie here with my usual measly one pound. I think I'd make goal for next week, but I'm leaving on vacation today (with a not tight band) so anything could happen this week. Fill already scheduled for as soon as I get home!

Great job Nymphs!

TXARcher: Did you find a fill Dr. in SC? Sounds like you won't need a fill for awhile anyway.

I'll check in as soon as I return!

Have a great holiday Shortgal... hopefully the temptations won't be too great. How long are you away?

Thanks Sades. Just a week. We'll do a lot of walking so that will help, but I'm worried about wine with dinner and at the same time want to enjoy and have fun. I might gain a pound or two, we'll see but I'm not worried like I used to be about getting those gained pounds off.

It would just mean "wasting" time getting the weight off.

I'm still stressing about the dress for the wedding but less so now and I want to start living like a normal person with occassional splurges.

I've been walking now ( three miles) not every day, but at least walking, so that ( and a fill) will help.

How's your fill level?

You're doing fine Shortgal... 40 lbs down, that's great. I'm still struggling to get back on track. I can eat so much. I'm booked for another fill on 14 May so I'm hoping that will hit my sweet spot. I also need to get my headspace back on track. I started going to a support group at the hospital the other night and I think that's going to help. They meet once a month and it's run by the nurse at my drs surgery. Hopefully I will have some positive news for you when you get back from your hols.

Congratulations on the walking, it will help. It's the only thing keeping me sane through all this.

Yay! I finally broke my plateau and got a loss to report. I was in a fancy pants hotel in downtown Denver for 11 days! No scale, eating out three times a day, no exercise (locked in meetings from 7am to 7pm). Thank goodness for the band. I had at least 2 or 3 "reminders" from my little buddy NOT to eat what I was putting in my mouth. They hurt, but they worked. Down 1.5 pounds on the home scale. There's no way I'm making my Cinco De Mayo goal, but I'm moving down and that's what counts.

I lost 1 lb this week but not till Sunday. I had gained 5 before my last fill 2.5 weeks ago and quickly lost that 5 plus 2 more in the first week after the fill. Now even though I am eating less than I was before the fill, my weight loss has stopped for the past week. Did I hit a plateau because I ate so little for the week following the fill and then added calories the next week? Did this happen to anyone else?

Every day is a struggle. Last weekend I went up 3.5 pounds but then I wen back down 4.5 lbs. It isn't likely that I will hit 245 by May 5th, but I will be over the moon if I can hit 24 by then.
