Onederland, here I come!!! :rolleyes2:

Shalee, thanks for the info. I would think that a Beverly Hills doc would be extra pricey but then again, if he's someone who works on celebrities he should know his stuff. I agree with not making the cost your deciding factor in something like this. Let me know how your next 2 appts. go.

Finally some downward movement.

Good for you, Foofy! My weight loss has stalled since my unfill. I definitely am too ambitious when I set my challenge goals. Are you doing anything differently?

Shalee - how exciting! That's so funny how you described going with the lowest price on your housing projects. Me and my husband learned the hard way on that too! Definitely go with the best! I bet once you get your tummy tuck you'll see a huge difference. And who needs a boob job? Just roll them up and tuck them in a Victoria Secret and away you go!

Cindy - I'm so glad you're going to get an unfill. I'm very very happy that I may have prevented for you what happened to me! What really sucks is that I gained 10 pounds with the unfill (totally my fault - pigged right out!). Then I got 1 cc back of the 1.5 cc's taken out. I think I'm going to need another .25 cc's. I got the 1 cc done today and already I don't have much restriction. :crying:

Shalee - my body likes 180 too! It's been around that weight for quite a few years. And even now with my minor binge session, that's the weight it went right back to.

:lol:If I was in my 20's, I'd worry about how "the girls" were hanging. As a mid 40's girl, I just want them to look good in my VS underwire!

The unfill felt great and I was able to eat again. However, I did put back on a couple which I expected but I'm not happy about. If I can't get them off by my next appt. which is Monday, I may get a small fill of .25.

Only 1 pound to go for this goal. I just hope I can keep it off. I've been playing the up and down game. This will be first challenge that I've actually made my goal. Finally.

Just eating less. It's a wonderful thing.

I'm going to have to have a hell of a week to meet this goal. What day is the cutoff?

Hey Foofy, there's no way I'm going to make goal. I haven't lost an ounce since my unfill. I have been up and down the last 3 lbs for 2 weeks. I'm getting a small fill on Sept. 4th. Hope that gets me moving again. This challenge is over on Labor Day, Sept. 1st. Where did the summer go? I can't believe it's almost over.

Any ideas for the next challenge, anyone? I've been thinking about it and thought a "Scare off the Pounds for Halloween" challenge could be fun. That would be a 2 month challenge and take us to our bandiversary month. Then we could think of a holiday challenge till New Year's. What do you all think?

I'll be away from tomorrow through Friday. I'm renting a house in Narragansitt, RI and there isn't internet in the house. I may go through withdrawal! Guess I'll have to spend more time on the beach! Judy, you mentioned that you are going to Narragansitt on the day I'm leaving. What a coincidence! Wish we were there at the same time. Would have loved to get together. I'm leaving by early afternoon. I'll check in when I get home. I'm thinking of packing my scale if I can find room in the car. It would keep me honest. Have a great week, Nymphs!

I haven't lost anything more but I'm happy to say I haven't gained anything in the last couple of weeks.

The Halloween challenge sounds like the way to go Cindy. Hopefully we'll all have some good news to report on our band annivserary.

I love the idea of scaring off the pounds. Do you think if my husband shouted boo at me often enough I'll start losing again? What about shock treatment? I wouldn't mind a vampire sucking out some blood - that's got to be at least 5 pounds right there.

:biggrin:

Hi everyone! We had a great time at the shore and I'm afraid to get on the scale! I'll go on tomorrow first thing in the morning and see how much damage I did. My son insists on getting fudge as much as possible when we go away. He thinks it tastes better at the beach. I think he's right! We also ate way too much New England clam chowder and had lobster almost every day. Yum! Well, back to reality. If no one else has any ideas for a fall challenge, I'll start a Halloween one on Tuesday. Only a few days left for the Summer Meltdown.

Cindy,

I like the idea of a Halloween challenge, or we could do a 1 year Band Birthday Challenge.

Either way whatever you want to set up is great. :biggrin:
