My best friend and I are 9 days post op. We will not be filled until June 27. We may soon find that we are able to eat like two little happy hogs! To keep ourselves on track until those fills, we are joining the challenge!

OK, my scales were down this morning. I'm not even going to count it until tommorow morning. I have to make sure it lasts. I have been stuck for so long I couldn't believe that I showed a loss.

To be continued..............

I've been absolutely horrible this past week. I'm in bandster hell right now waiting for my first fill. My appetite has been ravenous! I have got to get to exercising and watching my portions. Ugghh!! I'm so disappointed in myself right now. I'm afraid to weigh - I have a feeling I've gained.

Leslie, DOn't be so hard on yourslelf. Bandster hell is just that, HELL!!! When I was in bandster hell I remember thinking, "This works for everyone else, but it just isn't working for me. Those fears of this being "another failure" kept creeeping in. Don't entertain those thoughts. It does get better. Much better!! Just keep pressing on. You will reach your goal!!!!

Yeah! Another 2.5 down this week.

RH - A pound is a pound! I'd be darned tootin proud to be down a pound... Right now my scale is going in the wrong direction! I'm going walking after work today though and my fill is tomorrow. Hopefully I can get things turned around...congrats!

They don't have anyone else that does fills? That's gotta suck! When was your last fill?

We have an obesity treatment center that does the fills. There are a couple of people that do them there. My doctor also does them in his office, so I guess I can count myself lucky. Were you able to reschedule?

Hey Everyone. Congrats on your weight loss. I would like to join you guys.I did the Memorial day Challenge and did great with that. So fgured

I would keep on track.
